Hi Richard, I did find an App in the App Store for ADT Pulse, our home security company, which makes accessing our house cameras all that much easier, but these steps you provided really help with navigating, saving, & renaming a saved website. Thank you very much for all your help. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement.

When you launch Safari, and whatever it has as the home page, touch at the top where it says address bar, and double tap with one finger. It should say editing, flick right with one finger to the clear text button and double tap. Then type google.com and double tap on the search button in the bottom right corner. Then, and this will answer your question on the home security page as well; touch in the center of the bottom row where it says "Share button" and double tap. then, starting at the bottom flick left with one finger until you get to "Add to Home screen,” and double tap. You will have an edit box with the default name that will appear on your home screen. You can accept it or change it. Then, double tap the add button in the upper right corner. You can now start Safari on the google page with that icon instead of just launching Safari, which will always return to the last page you visited.

I haven't tried using Safari as of yet, but how do I go about making Google my homepage, if possible? Also, what is the keystroke for highlighting the address bar? I want to put a shortcut to our home security website on the phone to access / open like we do apps, is this possible, & if so how would this be done? I'm sorry for all the questions, but since they're all related I thought this would be the easiest way to ask. All help will be greatly appreciated. Thank y'all very much. Take care. Mike.
