12. • Kid’s Corner
It is a place on your phone where your child can play with the games,
apps, music and videos that you add there, but can't get to the rest of your
stuff.
Now your child can play Angry Birds without emailing your angry boss.
• People
Windows Phone makes it easy to stay in touch with the people you
care about. In a couple of taps, you can start conversations (phone, text, IM,
email, even Skype), check your social networking feeds, create contact
groups and more.
More than an address book, the People Hub also serves up your
friends' latest posts, tweets and photos (and lets you jump in on the thread).

13. Apps + Games
• Touring the Windows Phone Store
• Getting apps from the Store
• Deleting or reinstalling apps
• How can I tell if an app has requirements?
• Games Hub
• Setting up an Xbox account
• Playing games
• How do I install apps from an SD card?

14. How can I tell if an app has requirements?
Many apps or games are designed to take advantage of specific hardware and software
features of your Windows Phone. For example, a photo app might need to use your
phone's camera, or a restaurant guide might need to know your location to provide
nearby recommendations.
The following are some of the features that have to be cheacked:
• Appointments
• Camera
• Compass
• Contacs
• Data Service
• Tilt Control
• Location Service
• Photo,Music and Video Libraries

15. Touring the Windows Phone Store
Kit out your phone with apps, games, music and podcasts from the
Windows Phone Store.
You can shop for apps and games in two convenient locations:
• Your Phone
• Windows Store

16. Getting apps from the Store
• You'll find apps and games by the thousands in the
Windows Phone Store, Microsoft's virtual entertainment
shop for your phone.
• Many apps are totally free, and others let you try before
you buy.
• You can shop the Store from your phone or via the web –
even from your Mac or tablet.
• You can buy music and podcasts there too.
• To shop from your phone
• This is the most convenient way to buy apps – on your
phone.
• But if you get tired of flicking and want to see more apps at
a glance, try browsing the Store on the web instead.

17. Deleting or reinstalling apps
To delete an app:
• In the App List, tap and hold an app, then tap Uninstall.
When asked for confirmation, tap Yes.
To reinstall apps from your computer:
• Open a web browser on your computer and go
to www.windowsphone.com.
• From the drop-down menu in the top-right corner of the screen, sign
in with the same Microsoft account (formerly Windows Live ID)
that you use on your phone.
• In the same drop-down menu, click Purchase history.
• Follow the instructions to reinstall the app. You might have to re-
enter your Microsoft account information.
