suit your lifestyle. Go to Play Store to explore free and paid apps that help you be more productive, organized,
informed, in touch, and entertained.
Protect your phone
You carry your phone around with you, and accidents happen; phones get lost sometimes. So set up some
security and prevent heartache if you and your phone become separated.

In most apps you can touch or for app-specic settings. Be sure to see what options are available to you
there, too.
Manage cellular data
Understand your data usage. Keep an eye on your data usage and learn how to make the most of it. See
which apps use large amounts of data and adjust their settings. If your phone is using too much data, you can
also stop accounts from auto-syncing.
Use Wi-Fi to conserve cellular data. When you connect to a Wi-Fi network, your data will use that network
connection instead of your carrier's network, saving your cellular data for when you need it. Learn how to
connect to Wi-Fi networks.
Useful to know
Find phone info. To nd your phone number, device name, and other information, go to Settings > About
phone.
Tell your phone what to do. Use your phone hands-free with voice commands. Tell it to navigate you, and
listen to it speak the directions to you as you drive--it'll even reroute you if you've gone o course. Tell it to set
alarms, nd information on the web, make calls.
Never miss a photo opportunity. Automatically open the camera right from your lock screen. Just twist your
phone twice. You can automatically back up your photos and videos with your Google account or with other
photo sharing apps available from Play Store.
Store your stu. You have several storage options. Store apps and content on your phone. For more storage
space, use an SD card for photos, videos, and music. You can open stored items in associated apps, like
Photos to see your photos and videos. For even more storage space, plus the ability to access your media and
les from any internet-connected device (phone, computer, tablet), use cloud storage. Your Google account
includes free cloud storage on Drive, which has its own app and is also available from the menu
throughout other apps.
Wi-Fi hotspot. You can use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot to share your internet connection with your other
devices that need internet access (for example, a laptop or tablet).
Reboot phone. In the unlikely event that your phone becomes unresponsive, frozen, shows a blank or black
screen, or doesn't respond to the Power button, you can reboot it. Press and hold the Power button for 7 - 10
seconds. The phone will restart normally.
Certain features, services, and applications are network or carrier dependent and may not be available in all
areas.
If you had an iPhone
Welcome to Android! Here are some dierences between your old iPhone and your new phone.
Your assistant: You've retired Siri. Now, nd info and get things done with Google Assistant. Just set up “OK,
Google”. Then ask for info or help with everyday tasks.
Apps:
•Goodbye Apple App Store, hello Google Play Store. Play Store is now your default app store. Apps aren't
compatible between iPhone and Android. However, many developers make iPhone and Android versions
of their apps; if the app stores your data online, then you can switch with little eort. Just download the
Android version from Play Store and log in.
•Continue listening to podcasts. You can listen with the YT Music app. Or, there are lots of podcast apps on
Play Store - search for “podcast” in Play Store and download one of your choice.
Learn the basics : New to Android? 15
•Install apps remotely. On a computer, visit play.google.com. Browse apps on the bigger screen and then
install them on your phone from your computer.
Your home screen:
•On your old iPhone, your home screen was far left. Now, you start with one home screen and can add
more pages to the right as needed.
•Your old phone showed all apps on your home screen. With your new phone, you can put shortcuts to
your most important apps on your home screen for easy access. Or, nd your full list by swiping up from
your favorites tray. This frees up room on your home screen for widgets, making your new home much
more lively.
•Like your old iPhone, you'll see notications at the top of the screen, which you can swipe down to
review. But on your new phone, you can swipe them left or right to dismiss them.
Quick access to settings: On your old iPhone, to adjust settings you opened a Settings app. You can still do
that. But now you've also got quick settings. Swipe down from the top of the screen for easy access to toggles
for airplane mode, Wi-Fi, and other frequently-used settings.
In the cloud: Your Google account is your key to cloud storage with Google. If you migrated your contacts to

About text and multimedia messages
Text messages - SMS
SMS (Short Message Service) messages contain text only. One text message can contain 160 characters; when
you near the limit, a counter appears. If you type more, your message is sent in a series of SMS messages.
You can send one SMS message to multiple people, and replies are delivered in separate, not group,
conversation threads (unless you and your recipients have group messaging enabled).
SMS messages are included in most carriers' text messaging plans and do not use cellular data.
Multimedia messages - MMS
MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) messages can include unlimited text plus a photo, picture slideshow,
video, or sound le.
You can send one MMS message to multiple people using group messaging, containing text only or text and
media, and replies are delivered in group conversation threads to each person in the group.
MMS messages use cellular data and require a cellular data plan or pay-per-use payment.
Group messaging
Group messaging lets multiple people carry on a group conversation. All replies from recipients are delivered
to all recipients, in a group conversation thread.
Though you send one message to multiple recipients, you are charged for each message received. Group
messaging:
•Converts multiple-recipient SMS messages to MMS for all who can receive them
•Is available for MMS messages only
Note: Recipients who cannot receive MMS messages receive SMS instead and, if media is attached, a link
to download it over Wi-Fi (when oered by carrier). Replies are to the sender only, in an individual
conversation.
If you don’t want to receive replies in group conversations, you can turn o group messaging in the
Messages app.

You can let your phone use GPS, Wi-Fi networks, mobile networks, and sensors to estimate your location.
Apps that have your permission can use this information to deliver location-based services, such as the ability
to check in, view trac, nd nearby restaurants, or tag your photos with the location where you took them.
Turn location on or o
To control what location information your phone can use:
1. Go to Settings > Location.
2. Turn Use location on or o to give or remove permission to use your location information.
When it's o, your phone can't nd your precise location or share it with any apps. However, turning this
o disables many useful features and apps.
Tip: To add a Location tile to quick settings, open quick settings. Touch . Then drag the Location tile
where you want it.
Review apps using your location

Fix a problem
Problem: Location isn't working
After each step, check to see if the issue is xed.
1. Turn location o and then on again.
2. Turn airplane mode on, wait 15-20 seconds, then turn it o again.
3. If you're using a case, remove it and check if GPS is working. The case might be obstructing the sensor.
4. Check if Battery Saver is on. To save power, when Battery Saver is on, your phone disables location
services.
5. Turn your phone o and then on again.
6. Check for updates to the Maps app. After updating the app, restart your phone.
7. Clear the cache and data for the Maps app.
8. Use safe mode to see if apps you installed are causing the issue and uninstall as needed.
If location works correctly in safe mode, a 3rd party app is probably causing the issue. A lot of apps use
your phone's location. If these apps end up with corrupted les, it can aect your phone’s location too.
Problem: Location isn't accurate
Turn accuracy on:
1. Go to Settings > Location.
2. Touch Advanced > Google Location Accuracy.
3. Turn Improve location accuracy on .
When this setting is on, your phone uses GPS, Wi-Fi, mobile networks, and sensors to get the most
accurate location.

Let your phone scan for nearby Wi-Fi networks or Bluetooth devices:
1. Go to Settings > Location.
2. Touch Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning.
3. Turn Wi-Fi scanning and Bluetooth scanning on .

About security
Screen lock options
To keep your phone secure, use a screen lock when it goes to sleep:
•Choose a pattern, PIN, or password to unlock.
•Add a Smart Lock to unlock automatically when connected to a trusted device, when you're at a trusted
place (like home or work), or until you set your phone down.
•You can access notications and quick settings, start a call, and launch the camera from the lock screen.
•You can make emergency calls on a locked phone. A locked phone still rings; you don't need to unlock it
to answer.
•If you forgot your pattern, PIN, or password, follow these steps.
You can customize the lock screen by adding your contact info. You can also control which notications
appear on your lock screen.
Fingerprint sensor
Quickly and easily verify your identity using the ngerprint sensor on your phone, instead of entering a
password, PIN, or pattern to unlock the phone, make online and in-store purchases, and sign into banking
and nancial apps.
You can add and remove ngerprints.
Fingerprints:
•Are created from features of your ngertip, converted to a mathematical representation, and then
encrypted and stored only on the phone. No ngerprint images are ever stored.
•Are never shared with Google or Motorola.
•Are never shared with other apps. Your phone only shares the verication, not the ngerprint.
Note: A ngerprint screen lock may be less secure than a strong pattern or PIN lock. It is possible to unlock
the phone using a physical copy of a matching ngerprint.
Additional security options
For additional security, you can also:
•Protect your phone in case it’s lost or stolen. Use Find My Device.
•Connect to a virtual private network if you need to access les on a secure network.
•Add a SIM lock to prevent others from using your cellular plan and accessing account information if your
phone is stolen.
•Prevent viruses and other attacks on your data and privacy with Google Google Play Protect.
