1. Get to Know Your Kindle Fire > Home Screen
After awakening your Fire, you’ll arrive at the Home screen (shown in Figure 1-4), your portal to your entire media library, whether already on your device, stored on your Amazon Cloud Drive, or waiting on Amazon’s virtual shelves for you to rent, buy, or borrow. Here’s a rundown of what you’ll find at Home.
Running along the top of the Home screen, the Status bar gives you quick access to a variety of information and settings, shown in Figure 1-5.
- Your Fire’s name
- After you’ve registered your Fire, as described in Register Your Fire, the name you’ve given it will appear on the far left side of the status bar, just as a friendly reminder of which device you’re using (perhaps of little use if you own only one Fire, but especially helpful if your household has more than one).
