Warnings

• Conduct proper research before using third-party apps and services. Check the ratings if downloading off of a mobile app store. See if other users have used the service before. If no ratings can be found, e.g. a free web application, search the internet to see if any trusted blogs, journals, or magazines have reviewed it. Thanks Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
