and music with your child without worrying that they
might accidentally buy something, delete something
important, or send email to your boss.
To set it up, tap Kid’s Corner and follow the instructions.
Once it’s set up, your child gets to Kid’s Corner by swiping
left from your lock screen. There’s a whole separate Start
screen, where kids can choose the theme, arrange their

leave Kid’s Corner, press the phone’s POWER button.
Back up your stuff
When you sign in with your Microsoft account on your
Windows Phone, you can turn on the service that lets you
automatically save things to an online service known as
the cloud. When you set up backups on your phone, you
can:
• Automatically upload your photos and videos to
SkyDrive so you can see them from anywhere you
can access the web.
• Sync your SMS and MMS messages to Hotmail so you
have a backup, just in case.
• Create backups of your phone’s settings, including
the list of apps you’ve installed, your theme color,
Internet Explorer favorites, accounts, and more.
You can fine-tune your backup
options in Settings > backup. For
example, you can automatically
upload your photos and videos
at a high resolution, or manually
back up your settings any time
you choose.
Keeping things in sync
It’s easy to get your photos, videos, music, documents,
and more from your computer to your phone (and vice
versa).
If you have a Windows 8 PC:
• Plug your phone into your computer with the cable,
and the Windows Phone app will install automatically.
If you have a Windows 7 PC:
• Plug your phone into your computer with the cable.
A link will appear to install the Windows Phone app.
If you have a Mac:
• Get the Windows Phone app from the Mac App
Store.

WindowsPhone.com.
Taking and sharing photos
There are piles of apps to make the photos you take on
your phone look vintage, fancy, panoramic, silly, or just
black and white. With Lenses, you don’t have to dig to find
your camera apps—you can get to them right from the
Camera by tapping .
Here are a few more tips for your inner shutterbug:
• Press the Camera button to
bring up the Camera from
anywhere.
• Add pictures to your
Favorites album to create
a slideshow in your Photos
Tile.
• Press the Camera button
halfway to focus the
Camera.
• Tag faces in the photos you
share. Look for Who’s this?
and then type the person’s
name.
Rooms and Groups
Rooms and Groups are a great
way to stay in touch with the
people who matter most to you.
With Rooms, you send a text
message inviting family and
friends to join, and when they
accept, you’ll be able to chat with
the whole room and privately
share a calendar, photos, and
notes with them.
With Groups, you just add some
contacts, and then you can see
updates from Facebook and
Twitter, new messages, and
missed calls, just from those folks,
all in one place. Plus, you can send them group texts and
emails. No need to invite them—a Group is just for you!
Your phone comes with a “Best friends” group and a
“Family Room” to get you started—you’ll see their Tiles
when you go to People and flick to together. Tap one to
set it up.
To create a new Room or Group:
1 Tap People, flick to together, then tap .
2 Tap either Room or Group and follow the instructions.
Keeping in touch (cont.)
Create new contacts
It’s easy to quickly create a contact from a phone number.
Just tap the number in your call history, then tap . Or, to
start from scratch, tap in the People Hub contact list.
If you save a contact to your Microsoft account, it’ll be
synced to the cloud automatically. That way, your contacts
are backed up if you lose your phone, and you can see them
from anywhere you sign in to Hotmail or Outlook.com.
