# Home

After logging in, the home screen is your central hub for navigating Information Hub. From here you can access your recent projects, manage organisations and groups, explore the marketplace, and adjust your account settings.

## The home screen

The home screen displays your recent and pinned projects, giving you quick access to the work that matters most. Use the **search bar** at the top to find any project by name.

## Sidebar header

At the very top of the left sidebar, a persistent header is visible on every page while you are logged in:

* **Information Hub logo** - click this at any time to return to your home screen.
* **Connectivity indicator** - a wi-fi icon that shows your current network status. It turns green when you are online and yellow when you are offline. You can also click it to manually toggle the network status.
* **Offline warning icon** - an alert icon that appears when you are collecting data in offline mode (for example, filling a shared form without an internet connection). Click the icon to see information about how to sync your data once you are back online, including a link to the Jobs page where uploads are managed.

## Sidebar navigation

The left sidebar links to all home-level sections:
