Google Play
TM
Store is the place to go to find new Android apps, games, movies, music, and
books for your device. Choose from a wide variety of free and paid apps ranging from
productivity apps to games. When you find an app you want, you can easily download and
install it on your device.

Store, you must first connect to the Internet using your device’s Wi-Fi

Important! Sprint’s policies often do not apply to third-party applications. Third-party
applications may access your personal information or require Sprint to disclose
your customer information to the third-party application provider. To find out how
a third-party application will collect, access, use, or disclose your personal
information, check the application provider’s policies, which can usually be found
on their website. If you aren’t comfortable with the third-party application’s
policies, don’t use the application.
