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
the Google Play Store app.
• In the Google Play Store app, check the
app's 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.
