contact us and help so we can just assign that to our title so a string I'll define it as home and after that, we need to define the icons and since we don't have an icon in the drawable we are going to create create a new vector asset and go to select the home icon to choose and click ok change the color if you like to change the color you can just change to just clicking names let me just rename it to home click next yes since we didn't assign an id okay now we can just uh duplicate this line of codes you can just recopy like this but instead of using the whole icon we can just, for example, have the stream so we can

 

just decide about I see about a color I will just leave it to white Click next finish we also will also create the waiting privacy so I just click those choose this one and I will name it privacy or so we just use this one for our contact pass I will just see for this one, we will name about icon or menu just

about let's change this one to home let's change this one will be let's move this one title will be
