But remember, choose your apps carefully. Here are a few tips: • To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses from affecting your phone or privacy, use apps from trusted sites, like Market. • In Market, check the apps' ratings and comments 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 than others. For example, a simple battery level widget will use less than a streaming music player app. After installing an app, if you're not happy with how much memory, 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 monitor childrens' access to apps to help prevent exposure to inappropriate content. • Certain apps may not provide completely accurate information. Take care, especially when it comes to personal health.
