Apps and Entertainment
All your phone’s features are accessible through the Apps list.
Note: Like all apps, downloaded apps will use up memory, data, battery, and processing power—
some more than others. For example, a simple battery level widget will use less than a streaming
music player app. After installing an app, if you're not happy with how much memory, data, battery or
processing power it's using, uninstall it. You can always install it again later. If you doubt the safety of
an app, don't install it.
Google Play Store
The Google Play Store is the place to go to find new apps for your phone. Choose from a wide
variety of free and paid apps ranging from productivity apps to games. When you find an app you
want, you can easily download and install it on your phone.
Note: You must first connect to the Internet using your phone’s Wi-Fi, Sprint 4G, or data connection
and you must set up a Google™ Account (see
Set Up Accounts ) in order to buy and download apps
from the Google Play Store.
