    One of the shortcuts is a virtual lockscreen button.

    Handy if you like to unlock using double tap, and then not have to use the power button to lock.

    Double tapping the home button takes you to work space if you have it installed.

    You can unpinch to zoom in your BBM conversations then pinch to shrink it back again. Not on pkb though.

    Press and hold the triangle (back) or the square (recent apps) and swipe up also gives you the 3 shortcuts (BlackBerry search, google search and hub).

    You mean the home button don't you? (The O)
    Edit-Actually I just tried it and all three buttons work except the O shows you the three options before you swipe up.

    No, try the other two. They work almost the same way.

    Install edge app and get your choice of apps at an edge swipe. Make the Hub your right swipe button and open it anywhere instantly if you keep it open in the recents.

    Enjoying the Priv

    Go to Apps, Shortcuts tab. There are a bunch of useful ones there.

    I keep the WiFi and Bluetooth on my home screen for visual indicators. I use the Lock Screen in place of the power button.

    How many times did you have to tap on Android version and which version do you have? It's not working for me. I have 5.1.1.

    I currently have dragon as my voice assistant using my center shortcut. I never set Google now as the center, and I decided that I like dragon the best so I chose that one.

    Did you change to another launcher, by chance? Those shortcuts are part of the BlackBerry launcher.
