Home screen & apps
• Just like web browsing, you may want to monitor children’s
access to apps to help prevent exposure to inappropriate
content.
• Certain apps may not provide completely accurate
information. Take care, especially when it comes to personal
health.
Take care of your apps
From your home screen touch Apps , then swipe left to
scroll through apps. To close the apps screen, touch Home
or Back .
• Uninstall apps: Touch Apps > Settings > Apps.
Swipe left to ALL, touch an app, then touch Disable or
Uninstall in the top right (if available).
Disable removes the app from your menu—to Enable it,
reopen this window and touch Enable (disabled apps are at
the bottom of the list).
If an app locks up your phone as soon as you turn it on,
restart in Safe Mode: Turn off your phone, then turn it back
on—when you see the “Motorola” logo during power-up,
press and hold both volume keys until you see the home
screen, with Safe Mode in the lower left. Then, try removing
the app.
• Reinstall apps: To reinstall apps from the Google Play Store
app, touch Apps > Play Store > My apps. The apps
you downloaded are listed and available for download.
• Share, show, or clear app details: Touch Apps
> Settings > Apps. A bar at the bottom tells you how
much app storage space you have left. Swipe left or right to
see the list of DOWNLOADED, RUNNING, or ALL apps, then
touch an app in the list to show its details and storage usage.
You can touch Clear data, Clear cache, or other options.
Tip: To quickly show these app details from your app
screen: Touch and hold an app, then drag it to App info.
• Show app data usage: To show which apps are using the
most data, touch Apps > Settings > Data usage. For
more, see “Data use”.
Manage your apps & SD card
Apps can take up a lot of space in your phone’s memory. If you
insert an optional microSD memory card, you can move some
apps to the card.
Touch Apps > Settings > Apps and touch an app. If
you’re able to move the app, touch Move to SD card.
To insert a memory card, see “Put in the optional memory
card”.
