Internet and Social Networking
The following topics describe how to connect to and use the Internet on your phone, and how to
access popular social networking sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Hangouts, and more.
Browser
Your phone's Web browser gives you full access to both mobile and traditional websites on the go,
using 3G, 4G, or Wi-Fi data connections.
SSL/TLS
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are protocols for encrypting
sent/received data. While in a screen connected by SSL/TLS, data is encrypted to safely
send/receive private information, credit card numbers, corporate secrets, etc., and provide
protection against online threats (eavesdropping, falsification, impersonation, etc.).
SSL/TLS Cautions
When opening a secured page, users must decide as their responsibility whether or not to open
the page with use of SSL/TLS. Boost and the applicable Certification Authorities make no
guarantees whatsoever to users regarding security of SSL/TLS.
Chrome Browser
In addition to the default "Internet" Web browser, your phone supports the Chrome mobile Web
browser. If you are signed in with a Google Account, the Chrome browser will import all your
bookmarks and other Web preferences for use on your phone.

2. Tap the address bar at the top and enter search words (for a Google search) or a Web address

any direction to locate the information you want to view.
