Once you , you then need to select how you want to set up the screen interface. You have up to 5 different frames that you can activate/deactivate, including the top-left, bottom-left, top-middle, bottom-middle and the large frame on the right. To customize your views, you need to from the top-left within Glimpse and then expand the "Views" section. Within that dropdown, you have a few different options:

• Top (Left), Bottom (Left), Right -- These are your basic views, allowing you to choose between the 2 small widgets on the left of the screen, and one large widget across the middle and right side of the screen.  Tap on each checkbox to toggle them on or off
• Advanced -- Another set of checkboxes that allow you to add another column of one or two widgets in the middle of the screen
• Presets -- These are some of the most common views that you can quickly select that will automatically adjust the frames on the screen. You can choose between such options as the Default (top left, bottom left, and right), 2 by 2 (a grid of 4 apps) or Power User (all 5 available frames). Note that if the view doesn't adjust correctly, you may need to restart the app)
