+
+<p>The action bar is one of the most important design elements you can implement for your
+app's activities. It provides several user interface features that make your app immediately
+familiar to users by offering consistency between other Android apps. Key functions include:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>A dedicated space for giving your app an identity and indicating the user's location
+ in the app.</li>
+ <li>Access to important actions in a predictable way (such as Search).</li>
+ <li>Support for navigation and view switching (with tabs or drop-down lists).</li>
+</ul>
