Google Account Setup
The first time you open a Google app on your phone, you'll be required to
sign in with your existing Google Account. If you don't have a Google
Account, you'll be prompted to create one.
Your Google Account
You must sign into a Google Account to use Gmail, Hangouts, Google
Calendar, and other Google apps; to download apps from Play Store; to back
up your settings to Google servers; and to take advantage of other Google
services on your phone.
IMPORTANT
• If you don’t sign into a Google Account during setup, you're prompted to sign in or to
create a Google Account the first time you start an app that requires one, such as Gmail
or Play Store.
• When you sign in, you’re prompted to enter your username and password using the
on-screen keyboard.
• After you sign in, your contacts, Gmail messages, Calendar events, and other information
from these apps and services on the web are synchronized with your phone.
• If you've an enterprise account through your company or other organization, your IT
department may have special instructions on how to sign into that account.
