Apr 26    U.S. Cellular Device Workshop
In a recent survey, 53 percent of smartphone owners said they access email on their device several times day. In addition, 74 percent have accessed Facebook from their smartphone. How to use these features on smartphones are two of the most common questions that U.S. Cellular store associates hear. Devices, such as the 4G LTE iPhone 5s and Samsung Galaxy S 5, make it easy to stay connected to friends, family and business. U.S. Cellular wants to show residents the tips and tricks that make using these features fast and easy. U.S. Cellular will offer a free Device Workshop, where current or potential smartphone users can ask questions and learn about any device in which they are interested. The workshop is open to everyone.
