Читать книгу Android Smartphones For Seniors For Dummies - Marsha Collier - Страница 27

Do you want to know the most important pieces of advice I can give you?

 Never share information on the Internet that you wouldn’t tell anyone except your closest circle of friends and family — not even your year of birth.

 Don’t use free Wi-Fi networks without the protection of a VPN. (See Chapter 16 for more information on VPNs.)

 Beware of texts that want you to click a link to attend to an online transaction or an account. Go directly to the website on your phone’s browser, log in, and find out if there really is a problem.

 Do not add free apps to your devices until you’re ready to use them. For example, I load the airline’s app on my phone only when I’m traveling, and then I delete it when my trip ends. Apps like these can fill up your phone and may drain your battery even when not in use.
