Chapter 1: Exploring What You Can Do
Your phone also comes with preloaded widgets, which are smaller applica-
tions that serve a particular purpose, such as retrieving particular stock
quotes or telling you how your phone’s battery is feeling today. They reside
on the extended Home screen and are instantly available.
Buying applications allows you to get additional capabilities quickly, easily,
and inexpensively. Ultimately, these will make your phone, which is already a
reflection of who you are, more personal as you add more capabilities.
What’s cool about the Android platform
The Samsung Galaxy S phone is the top-of-the-line Android phone. That
means that any application developed for an Android phone will run to its full
capability. This is significant because one of the founding principles in the
creation of the Android platform is to create an environment where applica-
tions developers can be as creative as possible without an oppressive orga-
nization dictating what can and cannot be sold (as long as it’s within the law,
of course). This has inspired many of the best applications developers to go
with Android first.
On top of that, Android is designed to run multiple applications at once.
Other smartphone platforms have added this capability, but Android is
designed for you to be able to jump quickly among multiple apps that you’re
running — and that makes your experience that much smoother.
Take a deep breath
You don’t have to rush to implement every fea-
ture of your Galaxy S phone the very first day
you get it. Instead, pick one capability at a time.
Digest it, enjoy it, and then tackle the next one.
I recommend starting with setting up your
e-mail and social accounts, but that’s just me.
No matter how you tackle the process of setting
up your Galaxy S phone, it’ll take some time. If
you try to cram it all in on the first day, you’ll turn
what should be fun into drudgery.
The good news is that you own the book that
takes you through the process. You can do a
chapter or two at a time.
