you will then have access to further content, like additional maps
and routes, that can be purchased individually within the app. With
so much on offer, you should download some apps right away!
Managing apps
After downloading some apps, the chances are
that they will require an update at some point.
Most apps automatically update themselves,
if the setting is enabled, but the rest can be
manually updated by going in to the My Apps
section of the Play store (hit the Menu key for a
quick shortcut). On the other hand, you might
want to permanently delete an app from your
device. In this case, simply go to its corresponding page on the
Google Play store and select the Uninstall option. It’s as easy as that.
Apps and games
The selection of apps on offer covers 27 different categories, so
there’s always something for everyone. Within each category of
the Play store you can find the most downloaded apps within that
section, as well as the highest rated ones. One particular area in
which Android apps have vastly improved over the past year or so is
in the quality of games that they now offer.
Many big brands have made the transition over to the smaller
Android screen, with the likes of The Simpsons, Sonic The
Hedgehog and Mass Effect to name but a few. There are also plenty
of indie games that are Android exclusives and provide something
quirky, original and compelling that you may not have experienced
before. With so many games on offer, the downside is that they can
take up lots of internal storage space on your device, so be careful
not to download too many of them or you’ll soon realise that you
have precious little space for anything else.
