Tap on page 150.
Manage phone memory
Use Memory in Settings to monitor the average memory use and performance of HTC Desire 820.

Major change to how you use storage cards
If you have an existing storage card with media and other files, use it as removable storage so you
can insert the card and access your files on any Android phone.
If you have a brand new storage card, you can use the card to expand the internal storage. See
Should I use the storage card as removable or internal storage? on page 113 and Setting up your
storage card as internal storage on page 113.
Network settings reset
Quickly reset all network settings when HTC Desire 820 has a hard time connecting to the mobile
data or Wi-Fi®network or Bluetooth®device. See Resetting network settings on page 126.
Google settings
Easily manage settings for Google®apps and features on HTC Desire 820. Tap Google in Settings
and change your preferences.
Smarter app linking
Android 6.0 Marshmallow automatically opens the correct app for links that you tap in a text or
email message or website. With smarter app linking, there's no more guessing which app can handle
the links you tap.
In Settings, you can change the default apps to link to. For details, see Setting default apps on page
176 and Setting up app links on page 176.
