Save on data roaming costs
Want to go easy on your phone bills? You can save on data roaming costs by changing mobile data
settings. Data roaming means using your phone to receive data over networks that your network
service provider doesn't own or operate. Connecting to the internet when roaming, especially when
abroad, can raise data costs substantially. Your network service provider can charge you a fixed fee
for data transfer or on a pay as you use basis. To use the optimal connection method, change the
Wi-Fi, mobile data, and mail download settings.
Using a Wi-Fi connection is generally faster and less expensive than using a mobile data connection.
If both Wi-Fi and mobile data connections are available, your phone uses the Wi-Fi connection.

Use your work phone
A company account on your phone helps you do your job.
If you have a work phone, your company can create a company account that keeps the information
in your phone more secure, gives you access to documents or info from inside the company's
network, and even provides apps or Hubs that help you do your job.
If your company has apps available, you are given the option to download them, as soon as you've
finished adding the company account to your phone. If an app isn't available until after you've already
set up your account, your company can let you know how to get it.
A company Hub lets you get to all sorts of compan y information in one place – such as news, expenses,
apps, or access to a company store. Installing a Hub works the same way as installing a company app
– if one's available, you have the option to add it once you've added your company account. If your
company develops a Hub later, you are offered another way to get it set up when ready.
Most company accounts include a policy. A company policy allows your company to add safeguards
to your phone, often to protect confidential or sensitive information.
