Accounts and Messaging

With Verizon service and your phone's messaging capabilities, you have the opportunity to
share information through many different channels and accounts, including Gmail (Google),
personal and corporate email, text and multimedia messaging, and social networking accounts.

Gmail / Google

You will need a Google Account to access several phone features such as Gmail, Google+, and
the Google Play Store applications. Before you are able to access Google applications, you
must enter your account information. These applications sync between your phone and your
online Google Account.

Create a Google Account

If you do not already have a Google Account, you can create one online or using your phone.
Note: Although you need a Gmail account to use certain features on your phone, such as
Google Play Store, you do not need to use Gmail as the default account for your phone.
Create a Google Account Online
1. From a computer, launch a Web browser and navigate to google.com.
2. On the main page, click Sign in > Create an account.
3. Follow the onscreen prompts to create your free account.
Create a Google Account Using Your Phone

Note: When setting up a new Google Account, either on your phone or online, you are
recommended to add a secondary phone number or email address. Enter a second
phone number or email address from which you currently send and receive message or
email. This number or address is used to authenticate your account should you ever
encounter problems or forget your password. It is strongly encouraged for Android users
so you can regain access to Google Mobile™ services and purchases on your phone.
