Downloading applications from other sources

When your device is set to allow downloads from sources other than Google Play™, you

can download applications directly from other websites by following the relevant

download instructions.

Installing applications of unknown or unreliable origin can damage your device. Only download

applications from reliable sources. Contact the application provider if you have any questions

or concerns.

If you are using a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary user, can allow

downloads from sources other than Google Play™. Changes made by the owner affect all

other users.

From your Home screen, tap .

Some applications may need to access data, settings and various functions on your device in

order to work properly. Only install and give permissions to applications that you trust. You can

view the permissions granted to a downloaded application and also change their status by

tapping the application under

Settings > Apps.
