Accounts and Messaging
With Sprint service and your phone's messaging capabilities, you can share information through
many different channels and accounts.
Google Account
Many of your phone's applications, such as Gmail, Google Maps, Google Hangouts™, and the
Google Play™ Store, require a Google Account. To use these apps on your phone, you must set up
your Google Account on your phone. Setting up your account on your phone syncs 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 Google Account to use your phone, certain features of your phone, such
as Google Play, are linked to your Google Account. You do not need to use Gmail as the default
email account for your phone.
