User Guide

We wrote this user guide to show you around our brand new phone. Your Jolla is different in many ways, and we want you to take full advantage of its features.

Hopefully you'll enjoy reading about how to use your Jolla - they won't let us come and demonstrate in person so we've tried to explain things as if we were showing you.

First we'll tell you a bit about the device itself and then we'll cover how to use it.

Your Jolla has two distinct halves, the front is the screen and the replaceable back is called 'The Other Half'. There are only two buttons and two sockets on the outside.

• Martin tells us : "Phones are built using layers, display layer, processor layer, back cover layer and others. In a way we turned the inner structure to the outside.

1. Volume Key

   Turn the volume up and down using the top and bottom of this key.
   Volume up can also be used to take pictures when you're using the Camera.

2. Power Key

   Turn on your Jolla by pressing and holding the power key until the device vibrates.
   With your phone unlocked, press and hold the power key for a short while to switch off.
   When your Jolla is on, you can use the power key to switch the display on and off.

3. Headphone Connector

   Your Jolla will automatically use your headphones when you plug them into this socket.
   Your Jolla supports the AHJ plug but not the OMTP plug.

The socket/jack/connector can also be used as a line-out for playing music through external speakers.

1. Charging / USB

   Your Jolla comes equipped with a MicroUSB 2.0 port which you can use to charge it, or to connect to other USB devices.
   Charging can be done with any standard charger or using a PC, but using a dedicated charger is much quicker.

2. Camera / Flash

   The main camera and flash are at the top of your Jolla - be careful where you put your fingers when you take a picture.

Looking at the back of your Jolla, lift the bottom left corner of The Other Half until it comes loose. Do the same to the bottom right corner, this will let you lift the whole cover off.

Lift the rubber flap that keeps the SIM card in place, and insert a Micro SIM into the empty slot. Push down the rubber flap and re-attach The Other Half by clipping on the top first.

We know you are keen to get up and running, so when you start your Jolla for the first time, there is a setup wizard to guide you. It will ask for your preferred language and other details to personalise your Jolla and then help add accounts so you can see your social network, get your content and download apps. The wizard then shows you some gestures for using your Jolla.

Your Jolla's screen goes to sleep when you're not using it - if this happens, do not give your Jolla coffee. Instead, when you pick it up you just double tap on the screen or press the power button to wake it up.

A brief press on the power button sends the screen to sleep when you're done (your Jolla is still working but this helps the battery last longer).

Swipes are used to switch between tasks and start with a touch off the edge of the screen - you can swipe from all sides. It's a bit like moving the whole screen.

Pulls are used to move around inside an application and start within the screen border - again you can pull in any direction. This feels a little like dragging the application around to see different parts of it - it's a natural movement when you have a list of things.

Flicks are just fast pulls - they get you to the end more quickly and are often used to open menus. You don't need to try hard to do a flick, they just happen as you get more familiar with your Jolla.

Of course you can tap on things too - or in some places you can do a long tap (when you press and hold) to access more detail.

Later there is more about some other common tasks like search, date and time pickers, and the keyboard, but first we cover the Lock, Home, Launcher and Events areas.

• Robin worked a lot on the gestures : "Building software is about love and passion - you can't just write something without putting pieces of yourself in there".

Apart from the clock, Lock shows if you've missed any calls, texts, emails and so on. It also tells you about updates and other notifications - it's generally an information screen with some useful shortcuts in the menu.

So, what can you do here? Quite a bit :

• Quickly see if there are any events and notifications.
• If you Swipe up (not Pull up) the Events view will reveal more information about the notifications.
• Pull up a little to check battery level and network status.
• Pull down a little to see the date at the bottom of a Pulley menu.
• Pull down more to quickly (un)silence the sounds, and get to the phone, camera or settings.
• After you've chosen some favourite Ambiences, swiping from the side lets you pick a favourite Ambience, which changes your ringtones and sounds too.
• Pull up more to get to Home.

If you're using the device lock to stop people seeing personal information on your device, your Jolla won't respond to some of these actions until you unlock it. To do that just pull up and you see the unlock screen where you can enter your unlock code.

• When you leave your Jolla on the Lock screen screen it goes back to sleep quite quickly.
• If Swipe from the side doesn't work, then set some favourite Ambiences from your photos in Gallery.

Here are all the Status icons you may see around the clock at some point:

Indicates the battery status
An alarm is set
No sounds

Signal strength
Bluetooth is activated
WLAN (strength, available, no signal)

The mobile data icon can also have a number by the side - this indicates tethering may be in use by an app.

As you pull up you can see:

Signal strength ranging from (no signal) to (full strength signal) This indicator also tells you whether you've picked up a 2G or 3G signal.

Note: even if you choose prefer 3G, your phone may drop down to a 2G signal - see Get connected for more details.

Battery Level or for a battery warning

If you're in flight mode:

You may have noticed the LED at the bottom of your Jolla. This tells you about power and charging:

white : switching on
red : switching off
red blinking : battery very low, charging before booting
pale white : charging
pale white blinking : fully charged

It also uses the same colours as your main apps to tell you if you've missed something:

green blinking : missed call
blue blinking : missed message
yellow blinking : new email

Home is where you see your running apps and switch between them - you can tell which is which by their Cover. At the bottom are your four favourite app icons.

More about the icons later, first let's see what a Cover is. When you swipe away from an app to do something else, the app keeps running behind a mini-display on Home; and that's called a Cover. Different apps have different Covers to display selected information, and many of them have active shortcuts for easy access to important parts of the app.

All Covers respond to a tap to go back into an app, and let you close an app by long tapping a cover and then tapping (or you can close all apps from the Pulley menu).

Covers can have one or two shortcuts which you activate by pulling left or right. It's easy to use: touch the action you want and pull to the other side of the cover. The cover changes to show what it's about to do.

Remember that from within an app you can peek at Home (which also shows the time, and battery level) and see which apps you're running - try it.

To leave Home, you pull down a little way to peek at the time and battery level, and pull down more to get back up to the Lock screen. Pulling up takes you to the Launcher.

• Swiping from the side lets you pick an Ambience in Home too.

The Launcher is where you find all your apps. Tap on any app to start it. When you have lots of apps installed, you pull up and down to scroll through them.

You can easily arrange your apps or remove ones you don't want - just give a long tap on any app icon and small delete icon appears on all the removable ones (some Jolla apps can't be removed). You can now long tap an app icon and drag it around or tap on the to uninstall that application (don't worry, if you tap the icon to uninstall by mistake you get some time to cancel it).

• The top of Launcher is visible in Home - so by dragging any app icon to the top you make it one of the favourites in Home.

You can always see what's been happening with your Jolla's Events page.

Swipe up from the bottom edge to get to the Events screen. You see missed calls and texts, Jolla updates and all sorts of things. You also see any social network notifications - Twitter and Facebook show the status of new feeds and posts. You can do this from any screen, even inside apps. Quickly post a status to your social networks with "Share what's on your mind". There are more details about your social networks later.

Use the pull-down menu to clear all your notifications, or check for new ones using "Update".

Swipe from the bottom edge again to go back to where you were, or from the side to go to Home.

• The pull-down menu also lets you show or change your online messaging status - use the buttons at the top to set yourself to be "Available", "Away" or "Offline" for all your online messaging services. Tap on an individual service (eg. google-talk) to change your presence for just that service. This gives you additional choices too.

When you're looking for something and a search box pops up, just start typing and your Jolla will try and find what you want - the more you type, the fewer suggestions you'll get. So, for example, if you're looking for someone's details in the People app, you can start typing either their first or last names and your Jolla will narrow down the list.

An on-screen keyboard pops up automatically when your Jolla needs you to enter some text. As you type, an image of the letter appears as feedback, and your Jolla may make some suggestions about what it thinks you're trying to type - if it gets it right just tap on the suggested word.

When you're typing, dragging your finger around will change the selected letter, so if you miss a key, just keep dragging and let go when you get the right one.

• If the suggested words don't include the one you want, scroll right to see more suggestions.

Tapping the shift key makes it appear like this and the next single character will be in upper-case. If you want to type lots of upper case then tap it twice and it turns on fully :

For numbers and symbols tap the and you get numbers and common punctuation; tapping toggles between these and a different set of symbols including currency. Tap the to go back to letters.

Also, you can select different language keyboards by pressing and holding the space bar and picking one.

Do you ever wish you hadn't just deleted that photo! Well, the remorse timer is what your Jolla uses to help out. It waits a few seconds to give you a chance to change your mind. A slider appears and counts down; if you don't do anything then your Jolla completes the delete (or other action), if you tap the slider then the action is cancelled.

You can safely see a remorse timer in action by tapping on flight mode : in "Settings".

For picking a time, your Jolla uses a clock with glowing dots for the hour hand and the minute hand. Move these to set the time - like setting the time on a clock. Tap the time in the top right when you're done. To cancel you pull right just below the clock.

When you enter a date, your Jolla will show a year list for you to pick from; next it asks for a month and finally shows a calendar to select a day. You can still pull left and right to choose the month or pull down to change the year. The date you select appears at the top of the screen - tap this date to confirm, or pull right to leave it unchanged.

If you're modifying a date, your Jolla shows the currently selected date in the calendar view.

• You can still pull left to accept a date - just do it below the calendar view.

When you have your SIM card in, your Jolla can tell you if you have a 3G connection. You configure this in Settings | System | Connectivity - Mobile Network.

You will see your Internet provider's service here. It may be as simple as "Internet" or maybe your mobile operator's name - your mobile operator tells your Jolla what name to use here.

Tapping on this name will tell your Jolla it's allowed to use your mobile network for data if it can't find a WLAN to use. A long tap lets you enter your settings manually (connection name, access point name, username and password) - your mobile operator will give you these details.

When your Jolla connects to a different mobile network (eg when you go abroad) you may have to pay 'roaming' charges. If this matters to you then this is where you tell your Jolla to never allow data roaming, always allow it or to ask each time.

The remaining settings allow you to choose your 2G/3G preferences, and let you pick a mobile network manually if you want to. "Prefer 3G" will connect to a network using a 3G signal whenever possible. However, it will use a slower 2G connection if that is all it can find. Some areas may not have a 3G network available. If you know you're in such an area, then you may want to choose "2G only" so your Jolla doesn't use up the battery looking for a 3G network.

• is one of the four default favourites at the top of settings main page - tap it to allow/disallow mobile data.

Set this up by going to Settings | System settings | Connectivity - WLAN. Then from the Pulley menu pick "Connect to Internet". You see all the networks your Jolla finds. Choose the one you want to connect to, and follow the instructions.

Before you set up your WLAN connection, you need to know:

• the name of the network you're connecting to
• the password for the network

For some WLAN connections you may also need to enter information about:

• Proxy configuration: No proxy, Automatic or you will need website and port details
• IP address details: Auto-retrieve or you will need IP address; subnet mask; default gateway

Sometimes when you connect to a WLAN hotspot you need to enter a login and password, or accept an agreement. To do this you will need to launch your Browser.

• When your Jolla sees a WLAN it knows it will connect automatically - you can just use the on the Settings main page to enable/disable WLAN.

If you have a wireless earpiece or headphones they most likely connect with Bluetooth. You can also share photos, contact details and other information with other devices over Bluetooth.

You set it up in Settings | System settings | Connectivity - Bluetooth. Tap to switch it on, and you see:

• the name of your Jolla (eg. 'My First One')
• visibility
• any paired devices

With Bluetooth switched on you can see local Bluetooth devices that want to be seen. They can't see you until you make your Jolla visible.

So, with Visibility set to 'On', your Jolla is visible to all other Bluetooth devices nearby, all the time, wherever you are. Set it to 'Off' and you won't be seen at all. Setting it on for a specific time lets you pair/share but then switches it off again.

Before you start 'pairing', for example, headphones with your Jolla, check your headphones manual to see how to pair them. Then pull down and search for devices - you should see your headphones (or whatever you're connecting).

• To control Bluetooth quickly, use the switch on top of the settings main page.

You can copy files back and forth between your Jolla and your PC. You will probably do this over USB, but Bluetooth is sometimes an option too. (You pair your Jolla with your PC - see pairing Bluetooth devices above).

If you want to connect your Jolla to your PC using USB, connect the cable into your Jolla and then to the PC. Your Jolla will ask you what to use USB for - "Charging only", or "PC connection". Since you want to connect to your PC, choose this option.

Your PC should tell you that it found your Jolla - maybe saying 'New device detected', 'Found new USB device' - it depends on your PC operating system.

Your PC will then give you some choices - download photos, open with a file manager - that kind of thing. From then on you should be able to browse your Jolla on your PC just like an external hard drive or a USB stick. Your Jolla will show up with a few folders, including Music, Pictures, Videos, Playlists and Documents.

• In Settings | System settings | Connectivity - USB you can tell your Jolla what to do when you connect to a PC - it can ask what to do, assume PC connection or charging.

Settings | Apps | People

You can choose to import from SIM card.

This will import all the contacts from a Bluetooth device (eg. another mobile) to your Jolla.

To get started go into Settings | Apps | People

When you tap "From device with Bluetooth", your Jolla will switch on Bluetooth and look for any Bluetooth devices nearby. Tap the device you want to get contacts from (eg. another mobile) and then tap "Accept". Your Jolla will ask if you want to pair with this device, and show you a number. If this same number is shown on the device you want to pair with, then you know you've found the correct device and can safely choose Accept.

You can also to choose to "Always allow connections from this device". This will make the pairing process easier next time - if in doubt, don't have this selected.

If all goes well, you'll see a message saying that the contacts have been imported. Tap "Show contacts" to go into People - you'll see all the new contacts in there alongside all your existing contacts.

To remove this device from your paired devices list, go into Settings | System - Bluetooth, and long tap the listed device.

Make sure you have a working internet connection

• In Settings | Accounts pull down to create an account.
• Pick the accounts you want and proceed as requested.
• Make sure "Sync" is in the services you choose.
• Save.

Contacts will then be copied from the account to the phone.

VCF files are a standard (but technical) way to import contacts. You can export these from other phones or desktop applications and then copy them to your device using USB storage or an SD card. It's easiest to put all your vcf entries in one file.

Now in Settings| Apps | People: tap on Import contacts "from contact file" and your Jolla will let you pick the vcf file you just copied over.

Ambience begins with an image; your Jolla selects a highlight colour and uses that throughout. Your image then underlies all your applications.

You can have an Ambience for every mood - party mood, serious mood, work mood and so on. Play around and enjoy.

• Your Jolla is designed to make it seem like the applications appear on a layer of textured glass - that's why you can see through them to the Ambience.

Images live in Gallery, that's where the magic starts. Go to and find a photo that you love.

Tap a fullscreen photo to see the split screen, then pull down and tap to create a new Ambience which will activate at once and also appear in the Ambience gallery.

A simple Ambience changes the highlight colour and the background but you can do more with a favourite Ambience.

From the main Gallery page tap on the Ambience gallery to pick an Ambience.

Tap to make it a favourite: . Tap again to remove it from your favourites.

You can give a favourite Ambience a name and you can select a set of sounds too. Tap each sound event and pick from the list or from your music collection. Remember to save the Ambience.

• From the Home and Lock screens, swiping from either side shows your favourite Ambiences. Tap on one to activate it.

The Other Half is a smart cover - it changes your Jolla phone with a few easy moves.

Make sure you have a Jolla Account so The Other Half can download content from the Jolla store.

When you replace the back cover of your Jolla with a Jolla Ambience Other Half, it starts communicating and tells you what new Ambiences it has for you. You get a preview of the new Ambiences and it asks you if you want to add them to the ones you already have.

When the Ambience Other Half has finished installing the new content, you can create new favourite Ambiences with ringtones and colours for your different moods.

From now on changing the Other Half changes the Ambience.

• When we asked Marko about Ambience all he said was, "I like it!" - because he was busy setting different music as ringtones for each Ambience.

Now you can tell your friends how much you love your new Jolla phone!

Simply pull down the pulley menu and enter a number or call someone from your address book.

If you dialed them recently they'll be in the Call history - tapping their name/number will call them or give you some options. It depends on whether you have Quick call set or not.

Navigating your address book is just like using the People application - when you pick a friend your Jolla will dial them (or ask you what number to use if they have more than one).

While you're on a call you can press to turn the speakerphone on and off to mute/unmute. Sound will go to a headset automatically if you plug one in.

Of course you can use the volume keys if you need to.

If you need to enter any numbers during the call, pressing will bring up the dialling pad.

Tapping the cancel button ends the call, but you can also choose to "Send message" or "Call again". This is shown for a short time before going back to Call history.

• When dialling or entering international numbers quickly press the '*' button twice to get a '+'
• For complicated numbers (like conference calls or extensions) you can press '*' three times to get a 'p' for a pause which waits 3 seconds before dialling the rest of the numbers. Hours of fun !
• There's a shortcut for voicemail - once you've set up your voicemail, give a long tap on '1' (it has the voicemail icon: ) and it will dial your voicemail).

Answering a call is just as easy - whatever you're doing your Jolla will show the phone. Pull down the pulley menu and tap "answer".

When you don't answer a call, your operator can redirect it to voicemail or another number. This is covered a little later.

If you don't want to take the call, pulling up reveals a pulley menu. Here you have some choices. You can decline the call which hangs up the call immediately. You can let the call keep ringing without disturbing you; choose "Reply with SMS" or, if you're busy (or avoiding someone!) choose "Silence".

During a call, you can pull down to put that call on hold using "Hold Call". You can then pull down again to make another call by tapping "Add call" (this only works if your mobile operator supports it). You get back to your held call by pulling down and tapping "Resume".

• The reason for two steps to answering a call is to avoid accidentally answering if your Jolla is in your pocket - you never know what they might hear!
• Press the power button to silence a ringing call.

Change how your Jolla alerts you using the Ambience feature, and in Settings | System settings | Look and feel - Sounds and feedback.

In | Apps | Phone there are some extra settings. Quick call allows you to return a call straight from the call log. When you see a received or missed call in your call history, tapping on the number with immediately return the call if Quick call is enabled. If it's not enabled, then tapping on a missed call will let you choose between "Call" and "Send SMS".

To set your voicemail number, and tell your operator what numbers to forward calls to when you can't take a call, you use Jolla's settings.

Your Jolla gets the current settings from your network and then show them to you - this can take a few seconds.

You can tell your operator what numbers to call

• "If busy"
• "If not answered"
• "Out of reach"
• "All.."

For each of these you can enter a phone number or select someone from People by tapping + at the end of the text field.

• You can quickly get to Settings from the Lock screen pulley menu.

Most of the time you're not on a call so the cover actions are pull right to dial a number or pull left to call someone.

When your Jolla is ringing, you can answer it with .

If you're already on the phone and muted, you can unmute with .

Finally, you can hangup from your cover using .

• When there is only one option on the cover, you can pull either left or right.

The green blinking LED tell you when you've missed a call. The Events screen will also tell you, including the number and the time they called.

• Tap on the notification to open the phone app and return a missed call.

Whenver you're on a call, there's a "Call in progress" notification on the Lock screen.

A quick tap on a recent call dials them back.

Long tapping gives you some choices:

• Call duration - for information only
• Send message
• Open contact card
• Delete - from recent calls only, leaves any People entries intact

Your Jolla can always make an emergency call - enter your local emergency number. From the PIN query and Device lock screens, first tap the emergency call icon, then enter the emergency call number.

People shows images of your favourites first, then people you've talked to recently and then everyone else.

You can always Pull down and tap "Show search". Then enter some text next to the and your Jolla shows contacts whose first or last names match.

Everyone else is shown by letter - tap on a letter and you can scroll through all your contacts whose name starts with that letter.

• The first 'letter' is a globe and it shows your online contacts so it's easy to start chatting with someone who's online.
• You can change the sort order to first or last name in settings.
• Opening someone's details and tapping the star adds them to favourites, tapping again takes them away. It's easy, try it and see!

If you know someone's details, pull down and choose "Add contact". You can add all kinds of details and, if you miss anything out, you can edit them again later.

If you have contacts in other places then the Import section should help.

• Tap the empty box with a to add a picture to a contact.
• You can change the picture by tapping it. You can choose one from linked accounts or from the Gallery.

From an entry in recent calls long tap on the number, then choose "Save as contact". Your Jolla shows you what it knows so far, with an option to Call or SMS. Pull down and tap "Save" to add more information.

From an SMS message pull left to show the sender details. Pull down & Save to add more details.

Everyone has lots of different numbers and addresses - email, IM, phone etc. Now you can link a friend to all their addresses. Open your friend's details, pull down and tap "Link". Your Jolla will make some suggestions - tap names to link them to your friend. If you want to add more or your Jolla didn't suggest what you wanted, pull down - "Add more links".

Find this in the People pulley menu, use it to send friend details over Bluetooth or email.

Open someone's details, and pull down the menu. Using "Edit", you can change any of their details. Choosing "Delete" gives you a few seconds to change your mind, just in case.

In | Apps you can choose to show last names first, and to sort by last name.

• Matthew tells us that the great thing about working on People, is that it is the glue that sticks the different Jolla apps together.

Pull down and tap "New Message". Tap the to go to your address book, or start typing the name to Search. Tap their name and your Jolla shows you their details, say, phone number and IM name. Choosing their phone number means you'd be sending an SMS, choosing their IM address means you'd be sending an IM. Tap the again if you want to send to more than one person. You can change the message type before you start typing, and you can remove someone from the message by tapping their name.

Tap the "?123" to add phone numbers manually.

When you're ready to type your message, tap next to the word "Change type" and start typing. There's a section on the on-screen keyboard if you've never used one before.

The blinking blue LED tells you that you have new messages - swipe up to the Events screen for more details. Tapping Messages opens your unread message, or shows your messages in a list if they've all been read.

Open the message, type, press "send" - it's as easy as that!

When you tap Messages and open a message, you see all your conversations with a friend - sent and received; SMS and IM. Tapping on the words "Change type" lets you switch between SMS and IM. Tapping the text field (where the screen says "Hi") brings up they keyboard for you to type your message. As soon as you start typing, "Change type" changes to "Send" so when you finish typing you tap "Send" and your message is on its way.

You can scroll through your messages with the keyboard showing, but tapping on any message sends the keyboard away and tapping on "Hi" brings it back again.

• To send the keyboard away, just pull down on the keys.

In | Apps there is a Messaging setting to enable/disable delivery reports. Whilst enabled, the delivery status will be displayed at the foot of each SMS you send.

Go to Settings | Accounts, then pull down to add an account. Tap the account you want to set up.

Long tap on an account to remove it - there's a countdown before the account is actually removed.

• Choose more than one account and your Jolla will set them up one after the other.

You'll see these on the Events screen. Tap and and so on to read any new posts.

Tapping on "Comment" below your friend's post shows the comments already made. Tapping "Write a comment" opens the keyboard for you to add your own.

Open up and tap on the photo you want to share. Tapping it again shows the the ways you can share - Bluetooth, Twitter… Tap the place you want to share it.

• If you can't see where you want to share a photo, you can add an account from here.

Tapping on "Photos" shows all your photos as thumbnails and you can scroll through them. Tap on a photo to see it fullscreen. Pull left and right to scroll through photos. To delete a single photo long tap on a thumbnail, and a delete option appears.

Tap anywhere on a fullscreen photo to bring up the split screen. Rightaway you can share over Bluetooth, Email, MMS or any other network you've already set up, or you can tap "Add account".

To get back to the thumbnails, tap to bring up the share menu and pull from left to right.

If you want to delete more than one photo at a time you can do that from the thumbnail view. Use the pulley menu to start picking them. The delete option then appears at the bottom of the screen.

Above the Share menu is a pulley menu - that's where you find Edit. Tapping "Crop" shows your original photo but lets you move around it and choose where to crop. Once you've settled on your view, tap the photo again to choose the final size and shape you want.

If you choose "Avatar" your Jolla opens up your address book so you can use it rightaway. You can also rotate from this menu.

• You can also crop a zoomed-in area. Choose "Crop" and then zoom into the photo.

See the Ambience section for more on this.

These are automatically created when you set up your online accounts. For instance, when you connect your Jolla to Facebook, you'll get a Facebook album in your Gallery. Depending on the social network, there may be other supported features - add comments, Like/Unlike etc.

These are found in the Gallery alongside your photos. Tapping on Videos will show you thumbnails of them. Tapping on a video selects it. Then tapping inside the video toggles between play and pause. If you tap outside of the video, it slides to the bottom of the screen, and opens up the same share menu you get for photos. Tapping anywhere below the split screen sends the share menu away.

• At the bottom of the screen is a slider. Use this to jump backwards and forwards through your video.

You can only share videos over Bluetooth right now, and you can send small videos over email. Be careful though, as your email provider may block them.

Most of the time the camera's automatic settings are just fine, and taking your first photo is as easy as tapping and then each time you tap the , your Jolla takes another photo. You can also press the volume key to take photos.

To see the photos you've just taken, pull right and your Jolla takes you into a mini Gallery. Pull left to get back to the camera, or keep pulling right to scroll through the Gallery.

Your Jolla can take both portrait and landscape photos.

Alongside the you'll notice a . If you set this to +1 or +2, your photo will come out lighter, if -1 or -2 it will be darker.

There are two cameras available in your Jolla phone, main camera and front camera. When you pull down the menu to change the camera mode, in the bottom right corner you find icon and by tapping it you change the active camera.

• You can change the location of the capture key. Long tap almost anywhere on the screen and you get a view with circles marking where you can move the capture key. You can choose a different location in both portrait and landscape mode. Great for left handed people.

Pull down the menu at the top of the camera screen, then tap . You can pull the menu, too, to make it active. Tap the to start recording.

Videoes usually come out best if you take them in landscape mode.

• The stays in the menu to remind you that you're in video mode. There's also a time counter on the screen.

Tap the menu and to get back to taking photos. Pull up to close the options.

When you pull down the menu to change the camera mode, you'll find other settings you can change:

When is selected, the camera decides if the flash is needed; when is selected, the flash is always off; and when is selected, the flash flashes every time.

Colours in photos don't always match real-life so you may want to adjust what's called the 'colour temperature' to make them more realistic (this could get very technical so let's leave it there). Use:

• to let the camera decide on the settings
• if the conditions are cloudy
• for bright sunny weather
• for indoor lighting with modern energy-saving bulbs
• for indoor lighting with traditional bulbs

From the top right, you can change the way the camera focuses. Tap and the camera focuses automatically on the centre square each time you tap the screen (this is good if you want to focus on something and then adjust how you frame the picture); use and your camera will always focus on distant objects, or and your camera continually adjusts the focus using the centre square - this is useful when you take pictures of moving objects.

Although the bottom half of the menu lets you switch between the 2 cameras, there are many other things you can do from here. (This is when viewing the menu in portrait mode, landscape mode shows these items alongside the other items).

Light sensitivity lets you choose the ISO speed of your camera. This determines how much light exposure your photo gets, by adapting on how long the shutters is open for. Most of the time Auto will do the job. However, if you're taking photos in quite a low light you may want to use ISO 100 which keeps the shutter open for longer, allowing more light in. With this setting anything moving while the photo is being taken, will be blurred.

For moving objects, you would probably use ISO 400 - the shutter open for less time, less light in, and less blurring.

This is another area that could get very technical. So this is just a rough indication of what the settings are about. A photography guide would explain these concepts in much better detail.

While you're taking photos, your Jolla can display a grid to you out with composing your photo. This is a guide only, and will not show up on your actual photo. The thirds grid shows you 9 squares (3 x 3) - letting you easily see what will be in very centre of your photo.

The ambience grid is slightly different. Use this if, before you even take the photo, you're planning to create an ambience from it. You'll notice that this grid has a very small top row and a very tall middle row. That's because an ambience is created primarily from the middle of a photo (this is not quite the same if you crop a photo though).

If you want to set a time delay, your Jolla is able to do this. Use the menu to set a time delay of 3, 5 or 10 seconds. When you tap the , your Jolla will count down the seconds for you before taking the photo. Remember to set it back to 0s when you no longer want a delay.

• If you want to zoom in to take a photo, put 2 fingers on the screen and spread them apart to zoom in, and pinch back together to zoom back out.

In | Apps there are some Camera settings.

Tapping "Save location" uses GPS coordinates to save the place that your photos are taken. This makes it very easy to remind yourself where your photos were taken. Tapping again will no longer save this information with your photo.

To change the resolution and shape of the pictures you take, tap on Photo resolution - there's a separate setting for the Main camera and the Front camera.

In | Apps there are a couple of extra Browser settings - search engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing) and you can clear your private data - having 5 seconds to change your mind.

• We asked Dmitry about working on Browser - he said it's exciting because it consists of millions of lines of code yet it fits nicely into some simple Sailfish components.

These settings are broken down into a number of areas which we'll go through.

• You can change which settings appear in the first page - you can press and hold one to add or remove it from your favourites.

When you open Apps you'll see some of the apps are highlighted. Tap on these to see which settings you can change.

You'll find more on each app's settings in that app's section of the user guide.

• Pekka and Vappu worked on the settings and they like how application settings reflect the way Launcher looks.

This page lists all accounts you have created on your Jolla phone and lets you create new ones by pulling down.

When you create an account you'll often be shown a browser page which asks you to login to the website. This provides a safe way to connect your Jolla to the account.

Tapping on an account opens a page of settings for that account. Different accounts will provide different services and settings which you can edit.

You need this to get apps from the Jolla Store. When you go to Jolla Store for the first time, it tells you that you need an account. Set it up using the pulley menu in Store.

The main page shows a stream of apps and reviews - see if something catches your eye. Scroll down to see apps by "Activity", "New apps", "Top apps".

At the bottom of the main store page you'll see "Categories", which lets you browse apps by category. There are some apps written by Jolla that you may want to install to get you started - these are in the "Jolla" category.

• From any category, pull down and choose "Sort" to see apps sorted by "Latest", "Most liked" or "Most downloaded".

When you see an app that interests you, tap it and your Jolla will show you a page of information about that app. There's a description and often screenshots. You can also see how many downloads there have been and how many people have given it a . At the bottom of the screen are comments and a place for you to leave a comment too. Note that your name will appear alongside the comment.

If you haven't got it, swipe left to install the app and it will download and install, letting you carry on browsing for other apps.

If you do already have an app installed then the pulley menu lets you remove it.

You can access your installed apps, and search in the Store from pulley menu.

• You can close the store whilst the app is installing and it will carry on in the background.

When an update is available for your device, or any app, you'll see a notification on Events. Tapping on the notification will take you to the Store where you can install the update.

• Bernd had the idea to name each system update after a different Finnish lake - there are a lot of them!

Pull down and choose "Create new event". This opens a new page where you fill in the event details. Things like name (you have to give your event a name), description and, of course, date and time. You enter these using Date chooser and Time picker that we looked at earlier.

Tapping on the date "Starts" or "Ends" opens up a Date chooser - each date you choose is show at the top of the page. Tap this date when you're ready to move on. You can pull down here if your event is in a different year.

Tapping on the time "Starts" and "Ends" opens up a Time picker - the time you choose is show at the top of the page. Tap this time when you're ready to move on.

Use the "Recurring" option if your event is to happen more than once, and the "Remind me" setting to set an alarm for the event.

When you've finished, tapping "Create" will save your event. You can always edit it again later if you need to.

You can change the alarm in | System settings | Sounds and feedback. Change the "Calendar alarm" and tap "Accept".

When you've created an event there are still a few things you can do with it.

Open up your event, then pull down and choose "Edit" from the menu - this is the same information you saw when you created the event. Simply change any details you want to, and when you're finished tap "Edit" to save your changes.

Sharing an event over Bluetooth or Email is as easy as opening the event and tapping "Share" on the pulley menu.

Tapping "Bluetooth" will switch on your bluetooth if it isn't on already, and show any nearby bluetooth devices. Choose the device you want to share the event with.

Tapping on "Email" will open up a new Email for you. When you've chosen a recipient and given your email a subject, you can pull down to "Save as draft", "Add an attachment" or just "Send".

Open the event and choose "Delete" from the pulldown menu. Just in case you've made a mistake, the Remorse timer lets you change your mind.

If you don't want to see all of your events all of the time, pull down and choose Manage calendars. You can different calendars on and off. For example, if you don't want to see the Facebook events you've been invited to, just tap "Facebook" and you'll no longer see those events on your calendar. Tap again and they'll re-appear on your calendar.

You've probably already noticed the coloured line next to each individual event. This colour tells you which calendar the event belongs to - Facebook, Google, Personal etc. "Manage calendars" will let you change these to your favourite colours.

This is a calendar just for keeping track of your friends birthdays. Any birthdays set in People will appear in your calendar. You can add birthdays manually in People, but some social networking applications willad them automatically for you. When it's yourfriend's birthday, Calendar will show your friend's name with the Birthdays colour next to it (change this colour in Manage calendars). Also, if you don't want to see birthdays anymore, tap "Birthdays" itself (not the colour) in Manage calendars. This doesn't delete any birthdays from your contacts or your calendar, it just doesn't show them anymore. Go back into Manage calendars and tap "Birthdays" to start showing them again.

Set the hour using the centre hand and the minutes using the outer hand. (We talked a bit about this in the Time picker). The top right corner shows you what time you've selected. You can give the alarm a name if you want to so you can have different alarms for different things. Who knows, you could have an alarm for anything - wake up is the obvious one but you could have one for 'take a coffee break' or 'walk the dog' - whatever you like! You don't have to give your alarm a name, you just can if you want to. When the top right corner shows the time you want, tap on this time to set your alarm. This will save your alarm and take you back to the main clock page - where you'll see details of all your alarms. There'll be a on the Lock screen too.

• Turning the hour (centre) hand anti-clockwise starts at 23:00 (or 11:00pm for 12-hour clock), clockwise first starts at 1:00, scroll round again to start at 13:00.

When your alarm goes off, pull up to dismiss or down to snooze for 5 minutes.

Choose a different alarm sound from | System settings | Sounds and feedback and change the "Clock alarm".

• Each time you open the Clock app, you'll see all your current alarms and timers. Tap an alarm to have it set/not set, long tap to edit or delete.

Pull down and choose "New timer". Choose the duration in hours and minutes, give it a name if you like, and pull left to accept. You'll see your timer on the main clock screen, below your alarms. Tap the timer to begin the countdown, and again to pause. From a long tap you can Reset, Edit or Delete the timer.

When you open Stopwatch from the pulldown menu, you'll see a lap timer and a total timer. Use to start the stopwatch, to pause, and to reset.

Tapping adds a new lap.

• When you have a stopwatch running you can add a new lap or pause it from the clock's active cover.

If you use Google for your email, you need to go into | Accounts | Google. Make sure that "Email" is selected, and choose "Save".

Now when you open up your email using , you'll see your Google mailbox. Use the pulldown menu to write a new email, or Update to check for new messages. The pulldown menu also lets you select messages for filing or deletion, and give you different options for sorting emails.

If you want to set up POP3 or IMAP, go into | Accounts just the same, but pull down to add an account, then choose "Email".

From here, you can add POP/IMAP account information. This means you will need your username and password for your email account, and the server name (or IP address). Also any secure connection details (SSL, TLS or "Not in use"); and port numbers.

You've probably already used this information on your previous devices. If not, then you'll need to get this information from your email provider.

When you've finished this setting up, you'll be able to see your email from .

When a new email arrives, your Jolla will play the sound that you set in | System settings | Sounds and feedback, and there'll be a notification on the Lock screen and on Events. Tapping on on the Events screen will open up your mailbox, or tap on the Launcher screen.

• You can use the active cover to refresh your mailbox or start a new email.

Form your mailbox, pull down and choose "New email". Just like sending a message, tap the to go to your address book or start typing a name to search. Do this for each person you want to send the mail to. Tapping "Subject" lets you set a subject. Tap the "–" (just above your email signature if you have one) to start typing your message.

Pull down to "Send" your message straightaway, or "Save as draft" if you're not quite ready to send it yet.

If you want to add a signature at the end of all your emails, go into | Apps | .

When you select signatures, your Jolla automatically uses. "Sent from my Jolla". If you want to use something different, tap on "Sent from my Jolla" and change the text.

In | Apps | you can also change the account that your emails are normally sent from. This is useful when you have several accounts but tend to send emails from the same account each time. It's much easier than having to make this choice every time you send an email.

Email, people and calendar are automatically selected - they let you see your Microsoft mail in the Jolla Email app, your Microsoft contacts in your Jolla People app and any Microsoft calendar entries will appear in your Jolla Calendar. Tapping these entries will switch them off and on.

You can decide whether you want to share (sync) this information automatically or not.

Setting peak hours is basically the same as saying whether or not you're always available.

You can have different sync settings for peak and off-peak times. Eg. if you want your Jolla to always be up-to-date during your working hours set peak interval to 'Always-up-to-date' and set "Peak time starts" and "Peak time ends" to be your working hours and "Peak days" to be your work days.

You maybe don't want to be disturbed by work email outside of your working day. You can set this in "Off-peak interval" - there are lots of intevals you can choose from but essentially "Off" means your Jolla won't sync in off-peak times, "Daily" means it will sync once a day and so on. Play with changing these settings - you'll soon figure out what works for you.

As far as old data goes, you won't necessarily see the Microsoft mails and events that happened before you connected your Jolla - use "Sync old emails" and "Sync old events" to set how much of this old data you want to download. Be a bit careful with this though - if you have a lot of emails you may find the downloads take quite a while.

The last setting is "Resolve conflicts". Imagine you have an email you changed on both your computer (ie on the server) and locally on your Jolla. Which version would you want to keep? Choose "Priority to server" to keep the server version, "Priority to device" to keep the version you worked with on your Jolla - that's all this setting means.

You can always change any of these settings just by opening | Accounts and going into your Microsoft Exchange account.

Having finished this setting up, you can get to see your emails, events and contacts simply by opening Email, Calendar and Contacts.

To create them, long tap on a song (from All songs, Albums or Artists) and Add to playlists will appear. Pull down to "New playlist", give it a name, and you're done. To add more songs to a playlist, long tap on each song, choose "Add to playlist" again. This time just choose from the list.

• If you have four or less playlists, they are shown as favourites at the top of Media.

Media player has 3 of these:

With music playing, pull right to pause.

With music paused, pull right to play.

Pull left to play the next song.

Tapping on your current location (shown in the top left tile) opens up a map of the local area - you'll see a fullscreen map with your current location shown, together with any local saved places.

You can get to a map in all kinds of ways - by searching, from Favourites, from Saved places and from Recent places. However you get there, the map will always show the place you chose in the middle. For instance, if you tap a Favourite, then the favourite will be in the middle of the map; if you chose a Saved place then the saved place will be in the middle of the map, and so on.

Try this a few times to get comfortable with it.

Having opened up a map, tapping anywhere will highlight the place you tapped and open up the Location split screen, tapping again returns the map to full screen.

The pulley menu lets you search for local amenities, or you can tap one of the categories to see a list of what's nearby. This is things like "Accommodation", "Shopping", "Eat & Drink", "Sights & Museums" and so on.

Because you've selected a specific business, you get a "Call" button and an "Open website" button. This means you can call them without ever having to tap in their number! "Open website" opens up the browser and takes you straight to their website.

• Tapping will add this place to your favourites and give it its own tile on the Maps main screen. Tapping removes it from your favourites.

Just as your favourite contacts are shown at the top of the People, your favourite places are shown at the top of Maps.

Tapping a favourite opens up their details in a split screen. As well as the usual split screen information you also see what you called this location (eg. Home sweet home).

Again you get the "Directions" and "What's near" buttons, and the - tap this to remove it from favourites.

These are the places you visited recently and they're shown in a list immediately below Favourites. Tapping on a recent location will open the Location split screen. Pull left to right to go back to the Maps main page.

• Long tapping on a recent location opens a menu which lets you remove a place from your recent list, or Save to your Saved places.

You'll find these at the bottom of the Maps main page (underneath Recent places). Just like Favourites and Recent places, when you tap on a Saved place you'll see the Location split screen.

To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.

Your phone is a radio transmitter and a receiver. When switched on, it receives and transmits RF energy. When you make or receive a call, the phone controls the RF energy level–using only as much as it needs to make a connection to the network.

The product is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by ICNIRP, an independent body of scientific experts. The guidelines include safety margins so that nobody, regardless of age and health, is at risk. The guidelines use a unit of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit for mobile devices is 2W/kg.

SAR is measured when the phone is at its highest transmitting power. However, the actual SAR of your phone is usually below the test level. This is because your phone is designed to use the minimum power necessary to make and receive calls.

This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at least 5/8 inch (1.5 centimeters) away from the body. The specific maximum SAR values for this particular Jolla device are as follows:

Head SAR 0.546 W/kg

Body SAR 1.470 W/kg

For more information on SAR, go to http://www.sar-tick.com/

Please remember that, however you use your phone, RF exposure guidelines say that you should keep it 15mm away from your body while using the phone. Otherwise your RF exposure could exceed recommended limits. If you want to limit your exposure to RF, the World Health Organisation (WHO) gives the following advice:

‘Present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned, they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using hands-free devices to keep mobile phones away from the head and body.’
