Important:
Some applications, such as Calendar, work only with the primary Google Account (the
first Google Account set up with your phone). If you plan to use more than one Google Account with
your phone, be sure to sign into the one you want to use with such applications first. When you sign
in, your contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other information from these applications
and services on the Web can be synchronized with your phone. You will be prompted to sign in or to
create a Google Account the first time you start an application that requires one, such as Gmail or
Play Store.
