First Boot Guide

This guide will walk you through the process of setting up Twoyi after installation and launching it for the first time.

Initial Launch

When you first launch Twoyi after installation, the app will need to perform some one-time setup tasks:

  1. ROM Extraction: Twoyi will extract the internal Android 8.1 ROM files to your device's storage
  2. System Initialization: The container environment will be prepared with the necessary file structure
  3. First Boot: The internal Android system will boot for the first time

This initial setup process may take a few minutes depending on your device's performance. Subsequent launches will be much faster, typically taking only about three seconds.

Welcome Screen

After the initial setup completes, you'll be greeted with the Twoyi welcome screen:

The welcome screen provides access to the following options:

  • Home: The main launcher interface for accessing installed applications
  • Settings: Configure Twoyi settings and manage the container
  • Import App: Import applications from your device into the Twoyi container

To access the home screen at any time, tap the home button at the bottom of the screen or use the navigation gestures if enabled.
