Make your <strong>Samsung</strong> device the centre of your leisure time<br />
<strong>Samsung</strong> devices are great for keeping in<br />
touch and for getting work done, but<br />
they are also incredibly well suited to<br />
keeping you entertained. Whether you<br />
want to subscribe and read magazines or<br />
play games with anyone around the world,<br />
you can thanks to the capabilities of the<br />
devices and the flexible ecosystem that<br />
Google has created around the Android<br />
operating system.<br />
You can listen to podcasts and schedule<br />
them to download automatically, and also<br />
read books which can be displayed in the<br />
ideal format for your needs. Having so many<br />
options can be problematic at first with lots<br />
of different icons sat on the home screen<br />
and you may wonder just where to start.<br />
Well, the first thing you should do is ensure<br />
that your main Google account is set up<br />
on your device and that it has the relevant<br />
payment options entered so that you can<br />
make purchases. This alone will enable you<br />
to make purchases through Google Play<br />
and have all of the networking facilities<br />
logged in automatically.<br />
It is built to all work together with your<br />
account as the main hub and you may<br />
be surprised at how easy it is to use and<br />
how well it all works together. We will<br />
demonstrate some practical aspects of<br />
Android entertainment such as buying<br />
digital goods and also show you how to<br />
play games against people you do not even<br />
know. It really is a huge area for Android and<br />
one that is growing all of the time which<br />
means that even more content is being<br />
added every week.<br />
Potentially your <strong>Samsung</strong> device could<br />
become the main tool for your books,<br />
magazines, games and podcasts and it could<br />
start to take up a lot of your time every single<br />
day. If you have a busy life and lots of work to<br />
do, it is nice to know that many different and<br />
entertaining distractions are available to you<br />
whenever you have your phone or tablet<br />
with you.<br />
Android has all of the tools you need to<br />
enjoy yourself and more content that you<br />
could consume in your entire life, so why not<br />
enjoy every moment<br />
“Your <strong>Samsung</strong> could<br />
become the main<br />
tool for your books”<br />
