12 Apps & updates
Tip: Choose your apps and updates carefully, from
trusted sites like Market, as some may impact your
phones performance—see “Choose carefully” on
page 12.
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.
Recent apps
Touch and hold Home to see the last few apps you

To reinstall apps from Android Market, touch Menu
> Manage Apps > Downloaded. Previously installed
apps 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.
