Set up your phone

Make the most out of your phone’s features from the get-go.

When you turn your phone on for the first time, your phone guides you to set up your network

connections, phone settings, and Microsoft account in one sitting.

You need a Microsoft account to back up and restore your phone, to buy, install, and update

apps, and to access some Microsoft services, such as:

• Xbox

• Groove and Movies & TV

• OneDrive

• Hotmail

• Outlook

If you already created an account for one of Microsoft services, such as Xbox Live, Hotmail, or

Outlook, those credentials are valid as a Microsoft account and you can use them to sign in.

You can use the same username and password on your computer and phone.

1. Turn your phone on, and follow the instructions shown on your phone.

2. When asked, create a Microsoft account, or sign in to an existing one.

Make sure you remember the credentials for the Microsoft account you added to your

phone. You need them if you want to reset your phone or change the reset protection settings.

Reset protection prevents a thief from resetting and reusing your phone if your phone gets

stolen.

Tip: You can also create a Microsoft account later. Swipe down from the top of the

screen, and tap All settings > Accounts > Your email and accounts > Sign in

with a Microsoft account instead.
