Accounts and Messaging
With Sprint 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, social networking accounts, and Google
Hangouts.
Gmail/Google
Many of your phone’s applications—such as Gmail, Google Hangouts, and the Google Play
Store—require a Google Account. To use these applications, 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 on your phone.
Note: You can also create and sign into your Google/Gmail account through your phone’s Setup
application.
Note: Although you need a Gmail account to use certain features of your phone, such as
Google Play, you do not need to use Gmail as the default account for your phone.
