Android™ – what and why?
An Android™ phone can perform many of the same functions as a computer. But you
can also adjust it to better suit your needs, receive the information you want, and have
fun at the same time. You can add and delete applications, or enhance them to improve
functionality. At Android Market™ you can download a range of applications and games
from a constantly growing collection. You can also integrate applications on your
Android™ phone with your personal data and online accounts. For example, you can
back up your phone contacts, access your different email accounts and calendars from
one place, keep track of your appointments, and engage in as much social networking
as you like.
Android™ phones are constantly evolving. When a new software version is available and
your phone supports this new software, you can update your phone to get new features
and the latest improvements.
Your Android™ phone is pre-loaded with Google™ services. To get the most out of any of the
provided Google™ services, you should have a Google™ account and sign in to it when you
first start your phone. You also need to have Internet access to use many of the features in
Android™.
Applications
An application is a phone program that helps you perform a task. For example, there are
applications to make calls, take photos and download more applications.
