Why Do I Need a Google™ Account?
Your Xperia™ 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 which gives you access to the Google Play™ online store for downloading
Android™ applications. To get the most out of these services, you need a Google™

•
Download and install applications from Google Play™.
•
Synchronize your email, contacts, and calendar using Gmail™.
•
Chat with friends using the Hangouts™ application.
•
Synchronize your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™ web
browser.
