10 Synchronizing Information

You can synchronize contacts, email, and other information on your mobile phone with multiple Google accounts or other kinds of accounts, depending on the applications installed on your mobile phone. For example, you can start by adding your personal Google account, so your personal email, contacts, and calendar are always available. You could then add a
