screen looks really clean and the features are very intuitive. The compose mail button is in the top-right, alongside the refresh and the search buttons (see Figure 4-6 ).

    Going to the left side of the screen, and selecting the hamburger menu takes you to the Inbox, Drafts, and Sent Items (see Figure 4-7 ).

    Deleting and flagging e-mails is super simple. A right swipe deletes an e-mail and a left swipe flags the e-mail. You don’t need to go to a menu anymore to find these features (see Figures 4-8 and 4-9 ).

    Figure 4-8.   A right swipe deletes an e-mail

    Figure 4-9.   A left swipe flags an e-mail
    To clear the flag, swipe left on the flagged e-mail (see Figure 4-10 ).

    To get to the Calendar app, you can either access it from your Mail app or from the app list. From your Mail app, select the hamburger menu icon on the left side of the screen. You will see the Calendar icon on the bottom. Figures 4-11 and 4-12 show how to locate the Calendar app from the Mail app.

    Another way to go to the Calendar app is to find it in your app list. The app is called Outlook Calendar (see Figure 4-13 ).

    As with the Mail app, the Calendar app welcomes you with a Welcome screen. After hitting the Get started button, if you’ve already added your account, you are presented with the new design of the Calendar (see Figure 4-14 ). Here you will find the current week laid out in Calendar view, with your appointments for the day underneath.

    Figure 4-14.   The Day view design of the Calendar app. The Agenda, Today and Create an Event tabs are on the top of the screen
    At the top you have three buttons that change back and forth from the Agenda view and Day view. One takes you to today’s date, and the other to create a new event.
    Again, in the top-left corner, you have the hamburger menu. There you get a panel that allows you to turn off and on the various calendars you have for each account. You also have the feedback and settings buttons at the bottom of the Mail app (see Figure 4-15 ).

    Figure 4-15.   The hamburger menu has a panel that allows you to choose which calendars you want on or off

    Photos App
    The Organization feature in the Photos app is one of my favorite features. The Photos app aggregates all of your photos on your device and those on OneDrive, and offers a Collection view that sorts out any photos that may have been taken during burst mode, in this era of selfies. Also, you can choose to let the app create autogenerated photo albums or you can create your own. The visual effect is extremely attractive. The Collection view arranges the photos according to the dates on which they were taken. Figure 4-17 shows this feature.

    The Albums view automatically creates albums for you. Figure 4-18 shows the Albums view.

    Figure 4-18.   This is a placeholder screenshot
    The hamburger menu in the top-left corner of the Photos app provides a panel where you can choose which view you want to see your photos in (see Figure 4-19 ).

    Figure 4-19.   The hamburger menu gives you the Collection and Album view options along with Feedback and Settings
