Section 3: Contacts and Accounts
Accounts
Your phone provides the ability to synchronize information,
from a variety of accounts, including Email, Facebook,
Google, and your Samsung account. Depending on the
account, you can choose to synchronize your calendar,
contacts, and other types of content.
Contacts from your accounts appear in your phone’s
Contacts.
With synchronization, you can ensure that information on
your phone is updated with any information that changes in
your accounts.
Controlling Synchronization
You can choose to have your phone automatically sync with
your accounts, or manually synchronize each account when
you want to check messages.
You may also choose to limit automatic or background
synchronization to extend battery life.
1. From the Home screen, touch Menu, then touch
Settings ➔ Accounts and sync.
2. At the top of the screen, touch to control
synchronization. Choose ON to allow synchronization
automatically, at any time, or choose OFF. When set to
OFF, you can manually sync accounts with the Sync
option available in the accounts.
