Can't find your sidebar menu? Use the CommBox Experience app to turn it back on in a few simple steps.
Applies To
CommBox Classic S5: CBIC65S5, CBIC75S5, CBIC86S5, CBIC98S5
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Open the CommBox Experience app
- Using two fingers, long hold on the home screen to bring up the side menu
- Tap Launcher
- Find and open the CommBox Experience app
💡 Tip: If the side menu doesn't appear, make sure you're using two fingers together and holding for a moment rather than tapping.
Step 2: Go to Home and Side Menus
- In the CommBox Experience app, look on the left-hand side
- Select the Home and Side Menus tab
Step 3: Turn on Show Side Menus
- Scroll to the bottom of the tab
- Find the setting Show side menus (Floating is always available)
- Turn this setting on
Step 4: Check your side menus
- Exit the CommBox Experience app
- Confirm your side menus now appear as expected
💡 Tip: Even with this setting off, the floating side menu is always available, so you can still access it while you sort out the full sidebar.
Troubleshooting / What to Do If It Still Doesn't Work
- Can't bring up the side menu to find Launcher? Make sure you're using two fingers together in a long hold, not a single-finger tap or swipe
- Can't find the CommBox Experience app? Check with your IT admin, as some screens may have this app hidden or restricted
- Setting won't stay turned on? Try turning it off and back on again, then restart the screen
