11Home screen & apps

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.
