OS/Apps
As we have already mentioned, Galaxy devices run on Google's
Android operating system, which provides a wide range of apps
and functions instantly. A stable of favourite apps that come pre-
installed on your device include the Chrome web browser, Gmail,
Maps and Google's media suite – Play Music, Play Movies & TV, Play
Newsstand and Play Games. Then, of course, there is the Play Store
app, which is your i rst port of call for all of the latest and greatest
Android apps (as well as music, movies, books and games). Galaxy
devices are also well provided for by Samsung too. TouchWiz is
Samsung's own user interface that makes controlling Galaxy devices
easier by providing shortcuts to your everyday tasks – and it is
layered over the top of the Android interface with the two working
in perfect unison. You will also i nd the Galaxy Apps service pre-
installed on your Galaxy device, which provides instant access to
Samsung's own app store. Though not as expansive or varied as
the Google Play Store, this is still a great place to come for Galaxy-
exclusive apps that may not come pre-installed on your device.
