Step 1. The Lock Screen

Square Button: This functions as a quick toggle between recently used apps. Pressing it once will show a vertical list allowing you to jump between apps you select.
Circle Button: This will minimize the current app and take you to the home screen.
Triangle Button: This is the back button, and will take you back to the previous page in your browser or undo the last action in an app (Note: This will not undo or reverse a sale while within the payment application).
