You can use an Android device without a Google account. There is an option to skip account setup during device initial setup. My friend uses such a phone. Only you will be unable to use Google services, especially download apps from Google Play app store. You can still download apps from the phone manufacturer's default app store (in this case Samsung) or from third-party repositories like F-Droid. But except of this, the device works: you can make calls, send and receive SMS, access Internet, use e-mail etc. -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ mailop mailing list mailop@mailop.org https://list.mailop.org/listinfo/mailop
