Say what signing in gives you
Say what an account on a new device is actually for.
Signing in tells the device who you are. That one act opens the app store, the backups, and anything you already bought.
It is the same account on every device you own. That is how a photo taken on one appears on another.
Key points
- An account tells a device who you are
- The same account on every device keeps them in step
What to remember
- The account is the thread tying your devices together.
- The account holds what you own. Reuse it.
Try this
Find the account name on a device you already use. It sits at the top of Settings.
