How to use Android phone basics : Sim and SD card These are often confused for each other and since they have very different functions, it is important to know the difference.

A SIM card is provided by your phone company (Verizon, Tracfone, AT & T), which is usually free, and holds information such as your phone number and contacts. It is normally quite small and white in color.

A micro SD card can be used on most smartphones and is intended for storing things like photos, music, videos and documents. Micro SD cards can be purchased anywhere including Walmart, CVS and even eBay. These cards come in sizes like 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 and 128 GB.

If your phone has a removable back, you can get a SIM and SD card slot by turning the phone back off. Otherwise, a small drawer located on the top or side of the phone holds the SIM and SD card. A special key is required to open this drawer and must be included with the purchase of the phone.

Home Screen

Home screen on a computer is similar to a desktop. This is the main screen you will use the most, and every time you press the home button, your phone returns to it every time. More screens can be added to the right or left of your home screen and can be reached by swiping in both directions.

Apps installed by the Play Store will automatically appear on your home screen. It is also possible to drag apps from the app drawer to your home screen or from one screen to another.

Notification

Your smartphone uses applications (applications) to perform thousands of tasks. These apps like to send notifications to keep us updated. For example, YouTube will inform you about a video that you can enjoy that has just been uploaded.

Whereas a weather app will send weather related notifications and your message app will send messages to you as soon as you receive them. Swipe the notices on the right or click "Clear All" to clear them.

Notification bar

The notification bar is located at the top of your screen and usually shows the time, current battery charge and Wi-Fi / data strength. The notification bar can be increased by swiping down. When extended, quick settings such as WiFi, data, location, and Bluetooth are detected.

App Drawer

The app drawer is where you can find and launch any app on your phone. It can be accessed from the bottom of your home screen (or any other one you have added):

Clicking on the circle icon (usually white) with multiple holes or dots

Swipe up

Home, Back and Recent Keys

The Home key will return you to the home screen from any screen or application and is located in the lower center of all smartphones.

The previous key will take you back to the previous screen. Repeating twice will cause an app to exit.

The recent key shows all open apps. Swipe right to exit and close apps, or click "Close All" to close all open apps. This is quite important, because not closing an app properly will slow down your phone significantly; Especially after many have left open.
