Use Google Play™

Google Play offers a huge selection of apps and games that you can download to personalize your phone. To get started:

From the home screen, tap > Play.
If you don't already have a Google account on your phone, you'll need to set one up. You can sign in using an existing Google or Gmail account or create a new one. Just follow the on-screen prompts.
Tap Accept to agree to the Google Play Terms of Service. (You only need to do this on your first visit.)
To find what you want quickly:
- Browse: Tap a main category on the Google Play home screen then explore.
- Search: Tap on any page, enter the name or keyword, and then tap again.
Tap an item to read a description and user reviews.
Tap Install (for free items) or the price button (for paid items).

Take pictures and videos

Taking pictures with the built-in camera is as simple as choosing a subject, pointing the lens and pressing a button.

Please note: Be sure your microSD card is installed, as this is where your photos and videos will be stored.

From the home screen, tap > Camera.
Aim the camera lens at your subject, then tap .
From Camera mode, tap on the bottom left of your screen to view your pictures.
You can swipe through your photos. While viewing any photo, tap it to see more options. For example, to share the photo, tap and choose how you'd like to share it.

To switch to video mode, tap video button while in camera mode. Tap record video button to begin and end recording.

Transfer music and other files to and from your computer

You can transfer music, pictures and videos to and from your phone using a USB cable. This will work with most Windows and Mac operating systems, but it depends on your computer's setup. If you have any problems connecting your phone to your computer and a restart doesn't help, you may need to buy a microSD™-to-USB converter, such as a SanDisk® MobileMate™.

Connect your phone to your computer using the included USB cable.
You should see a Connect to PC screen on your phone. Tap Disk drive then tap Done.
On your computer, find and open the newly created removable disk drive for your phone. (This is found in Computer or My Computer on a PC and on your desktop on a Mac.)
Drag and drop files to or from your phone's drive as desired. When copying files to your phone, place them in the main folder.
When you're done, eject the phone's drive on your computer so you safely disconnect.

Use voice-guided navigation

From the home screen, tap > Navigation. GPS signal strength may vary depending on where you are so it may take a while to find your location.
If you get a pop-up message, read through and tap Accept to continue.
To enter a destination, you can tap:
- Speak Destination which uses voice recognition to search for matching locations in your area.
- Type Destination to type in an address.
- Contacts to choose an address from your contacts.
- Starred Places to get directions to a location you starred in Google maps.
If asked which program to use, check the box to make your choice the default, then tap Navigation.
The turn-by-by turn voice guided navigation will begin.

If your phone is having trouble finding your location, you should make sure your phone is using wireless networks to find your location in addition to GPS:

From the home screen, tap MENU > Settings > Location.
Check Use wireless networks if it's not currently checked.

Please note: GPS can drain your battery faster. We recommend only turning it on when you need it.
