How to add Additional Accounts on an Android Device

Description: The Android OS has the ability to sync accounts across multiple social media networks. Here's how to set that up.

  1. Verify the home screen is active by touching the Home button along the bottom of the screen, then touch the Menu button.
  2. A pop-up display will appear. Touch settings in this menu.
  3. From here, look for Accounts, and touch it. (Note: In this example, the device is an HTC phone running their Sense overlay, so it may look different, but the overall process is the same).
