PRESENTATION DESCRIPTIONS
Custom Text Tones for Your Smartphone. When you receive a text, wouldn't it be great if your phone could announce the sender's name before you even glance at it? Then, you can quickly decide whether or not to interrupt what you are doing to read the text.
 
Learn how to use your smartphone to record the name of a text sender, install that recording on your smartphone, and assign that recording to the text sender. Additionally, learn how to set your default text tone to Silent (Android) or None (iPhone) so that junk text and low-priority messages are not brought to your immediate attention.
 
Why a Microsoft Account Matters: Backup, Sync, and Seamless PC Setup! Using a Microsoft Account when setting up a new Windows computer offers a seamless and secure experience. It enables automatic backup through OneDrive, ensuring that important files, such as documents, photos, and desktop content, are safely stored in the cloud. The account also provides syncing across devices, allowing your personalized settings, browser data, and passwords to follow you wherever you sign in. From instant access to Microsoft services like Outlook, Word, and Skype, to enhanced security features like Windows Hello and device recovery, a Microsoft Account simplifies setup, improves continuity, and helps protect your data. It's an essential tool for maximizing the performance of your new PC.
