If you’re viewing diaspora* on a handheld device, the interface will look quite different, because you’ll be using diaspora*’s mobile version. The header bar is simplified, as in the first image below. Click the “drawer” icon (three horizontal lines) to open the navigation menu. Click your name in this menu to open your user menu. All the options are available, but they’re in different places.

Beneath the header is the main content stream.
