Choose carefullyApps are great. There's something for everyone. Play,communicate, work, or have fun. But remember, chooseyour apps carefully. Here are a few tips:• To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses fromaffecting your smartphone or privacy, use apps fromtrusted sites, like the Google Play Store.• In the Google Play Store, check the app’s ratings andcomments before installing.• If you doubt the safety of an app, don’t install it.• Like all apps, downloaded apps will use up memory,data, battery, and processing power—some more thanothers. For example, a simple battery level widget willuse less than a streaming music player app. Afterinstalling an app, if you’re not happy with how muchmemory, data, battery or processing power it’s using,uninstall it. You can always install it again later.• Just like web browsing, you may want to monitorchildren’s access to apps to help prevent exposure toinappropriate content.• Certain apps may not provide completely accurateinformation.
