ANDROID QUICK START GUIDE WELCOME TO ANDROID 2
When prompted, you can sign in with your Google Account or
create one at that time. You can also choose to skip this step
and create one later.
An email address that you use for any of the following counts as
a Google Account:
• Gmail
• YouTube
• Google Apps
• AdWords
• Any other Google product
When you sign in with a Google Account, all the email, contacts,
Calendar events and other data associated with that account are
automatically synced with your device. If you have more than
one Android device, they are all kept in sync.
For example, if you change a friend’s phone number on your
phone, that change also appears on your tablet and on any
computers where you’re logged in to your Google Account.
If you have multiple Google Accounts, you can add others later
from Settings > Accounts > Add account.
Make yourself at home
After you finish setting up your device, the Home screen appears
for the first time:
• To move between Home screens, swipe left or right.
• To use Google Now, swipe up from the bottom of the screen
or, on some Google Play edition devices, press and hold the
Home button. On Nexus 5, you can also swipe to the leftmost
Home screen.
