Apps from the web
You can get apps from online app stores using your browser.
Tip: Choose your apps and updates carefully, as some may
impact your smartphone’s performance—see “Choose
carefully” on page 14.
Note: When installing an app, make sure you read the alerts
that tell you what information the app will access. If you don’t
want the app to have access to this information, cancel the
installation.
To let your smartphone install apps that are not on Google Play,
tap Apps >
Settings > Security & Screen Lock and
check
Unknown sources .
To download files from your browser, see “Downloads” on
page 38.
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 smartphone or privacy, use apps from trusted sites, like
Google Play.
•On Google Play, check the app’s 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 children’s
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.
