Introduction

LiveView™ is a mini display that mirrors and displays the
events that happen in your phone, so you never miss what
is going on. On your LiveView™ screen, you can view
notifications such as text messages, multimedia messages,
incoming calls, calendar event reminders, updates from
friends on Facebook™, and tweets.
You decide what you want to keep track of by selecting the
notification categories in the LiveView™ application.
LiveView™ uses a Bluetooth™ connection to communicate
with your phone.
The LiveView™ device lets you open notifications on both
the mini display and on your phone so that you can first read
the notification on the mini display before, for example,
replying to it using your phone.

LiveView™ only displays events that happen in your
phone after LiveView™ is connected.

This User guide focuses on using LiveView™ with a
Sony Ericsson Android™ mobile phone.
