* The appropriate launcher based on whether you’re in notebook or tablet mode
* Dash menu in tablet mode
* Standard menu in notebook mode
* Preconfigured swipe gestures similar to those on Android or iOS
* On-screen keyboard in tablet mode
If any of these features don't work on your device, please feel free to contact me.
