Do you want to be always up to date with what’s going on in all your social media accounts, e-mail box and others? If you do, then you have to enable sync in your Android device.
Thanks to this feature all your apps and accounts will be synced in real time and you will instantly receive notifications (if your device is connected to the Internet either over Wi-Fi or mobile data).
