Why do I need a Google account?
Your device from Sony runs on the Android platform developed by Google. A range
of Google applications and services is available on your device when you purchase
it, for example, Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™, and the Play Store™
application. To get the most out of these services, you need a Google account. For
example, a Google account enables you to do the following:
•
Download and install applications from Google Play.
•
Synchronize your email, contacts, and calendar using Gmail.
•
Chat with friends using the Google Duo™ application.
•
Synchronize your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™
web browser.
•
Identify yourself as the authorized user after a software repair using Xperia
Companion.
•
Remotely find, lock, or clear a lost or stolen device using the Find my device
services.
