Your Home Screen
When you open the app, you'll see your home screen. This is your starting point — think of it as the front door to everything else.

What You'll See
Your home screen shows you the most important things at a glance:
- A welcome message with your name
- Communities you belong to (if any)
- Your courses (if you have any)
- Upcoming events happening soon

Quick Help: Don't worry if some sections are empty at first. They'll fill up as you start using the app.
Moving Around the App
At the bottom of your screen, you'll see small icons. These are like signposts — tap one to go to that area.

Here's what each one does:
| Icon | What it does |
|---|---|
| Home | Brings you back to this main screen |
| Community | Shows posts and updates from your group |
| Events | Shows upcoming gatherings and sessions |
| Profile | Shows your personal information |
Simply tap any icon to go to that section.
Quick Help: You can always get back home by tapping the Home icon. You won't lose anything by moving around.
The Menu
Some options are found in a menu. You might see this as:
- Three lines (sometimes called "hamburger menu")
- Your profile picture
- A gear icon

Tap it to see more options like Settings, Help, and Sign Out.
Scrolling
If there's more content than fits on your screen, simply swipe up with your finger to see more. Swipe down to go back to the top.

Quick Help: If you accidentally scroll too far, just swipe in the opposite direction to go back.
Going Back
If you tap into something and want to return to where you were:
- Look for an arrow pointing left at the top of the screen
- Tap it to go back one step

You can keep tapping the back arrow to retrace your steps.
If You're Stuck
If you're not sure where you are in the app, just tap the Home icon at the bottom of your screen. This will take you back to familiar ground.
You can also close the app completely and open it again — you'll start fresh at the home screen.
