When you set up your phone, you were prompted to add a Google account. If you skipped this, be sure to set one up now so you can download apps from Play Store, get a customised information feed and take full advantage of the Calendar, Gmail, and other apps included with your Google account.

To add a Google account:

1. Go to Settings.
2. tap Passwords accounts > Add account.
3. Tap Google and follow the on-screen instructions to add an existing account or to create a new one.
4. Once the account is added, Calendar, Contacts and other account features and apps are updated with information from that account. You can review and change what syncs with your phone for that account.

TipKeep your apps up-to-date. To see if newer versions of the apps associated with your Google account are available, open the Play Store app and tap your profile icon > Manage apps and device.

Accounts are automatically added when you:

• set up corporate email
• set up personal email for non-Gmail addresses
• install apps that require a username/password to log in, such as messaging, shopping or streaming content

To review these accounts or add another:

1. go to Settings.
2. tap Passwords accounts > Add account.

3. Tap the type of account to add and follow the on-screen instructions.

   If you don't see the type of account you want to add, install the related app from Play Store, then sign in to your account through the app.

4. Once the account is added, account-related features and apps are updated with information from that account. To review and change what syncs with your phone, tap the account type, then account name.
