your apps carefully. Here are a few tips:

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

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
children's 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.
