    Apps
    •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.
    Update Your PhoneYou can use your phone or computer to check, download, and install phone software updates: • Using your phone: If your phone notifies you about an  update, follow the instructions to  download and install it. To manually check for updates,  touch Menu  >  
    Settings
     > About  
    phone 
     > System updates
    . 
    Your phone downloads any updates  over your mobile network. Remember,  these updates can be quite large  (25MB or more) and may not be available in all countries. If you don’t  have an unlimited data plan, or mobile  network updates are not available in your country, you can update using a  computer. 
    						
    							16 Calls•Using your computer: On your computer, go to  www.motorola.com/support 
     and  
    check the “Software” links. If an update is available, just follow the installation  instructions.
