Why do I need a Google™ account?
Your Xperia™ device from Sony runs on the Android™ platform developed by
Google™. A range of Google™ applications and services is available on your device
when you purchase it, for example, Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™ and the
Play Store™ application, which gives you access to the Google Play™ online store
for downloading Android™ applications. To get the most out of these services, you
need a Google™ account. For example, a Google™ account is mandatory if you want
to:
•
Download and install applications from Google Play™.
•
Synchronise email, contacts and the calendar.
•
Chat with friends using the Hangouts™ application.
•
Synchronise your browsing history and bookmarks.
