this information, cancel the installation.
•To show your downloaded apps in Market, touch

Manage & restore apps
Find it: Menu > Manage Apps
Touch an app in the list, then choose Uninstall (for
apps you downloaded), Clear cache, Move to SD card
(for downloaded apps), or other options.
Android Market is also available on your
computer—go to market.android.com. Sign in to
browse and manage apps for all your Android™
devices.
If you have trouble removing an app, turn off your
phone, then turn it back on—when you see the
“Motorola” logo during power-up, press and hold both
volume keys until you see the home screen. Your
screen will show Safe Mode in the lower left corner,
and you can remove the app.
To reinstall apps from Android Market, touch >
(in the top right) > My apps. The apps you downloaded
are listed and available for download.
Choose carefully
Apps are great. There's something for everyone. Play,
communicate, work, or have fun. But remember,
choose your apps carefully. Here are a few tips:
•To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses from
affecting your phone or privacy, use apps from
trusted sites, like Market.
•In Market, check the apps’ ratings and comments
before installing.
•If you doubt the safety of an app, don't install it.
•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.
•Just like web browsing, you may want to monitor
childrens’ access to apps to help prevent exposure
to inappropriate content.
•Certain apps may not provide completely accurate
information. Take care, especially when it comes to
personal health.
