Social media offers a huge variety of ways to stay connected, see new things, and just plain have fun. One of my favorite ways to use social media is to share and view photos on Instagram and Pinterest. Both are free photo sharing apps which can provide hours of enjoyment on your Android smartphone, iPhone or tablet.
For sharing photos and videos of all of life’s special moments, Instagram is the place to go. With over 500 million users worldwide, chances are good your kids or grandkids are already using it, so it’s a terrific way to keep up with what they’re sharing! And not only will it give you a cool place to share pictures with family, you’ll also be able to see amazing things from around the globe!
You can upload photos to Instagram easily using your cellphone, and it includes handy editing features that let you crop your photos, adjust settings like color temperature and contrast, and even add unique filters to turn your snapshots into real works of art.
In your daily online activity, you’ll inevitably find many things that interest you. Pinterest is an organizational tool that allows you collect and organize them for easy reference later on. Then next time you need a gift idea, a recipe or help with a DIY home project, you’ve got a group of things you’ve collected to reference, guide and inspire you! You also get to view and share items with other users who have similar interests, which makes it a truly vibrant social media network.
And I know you all share my interest in keeping up with exciting new developments at Consumer Cellular, so be sure to follow our pages on Instagram and Pinterest—as well as our pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus. Following us on social media is a great way to keep up with all the latest information on new products or services, and of course be the first to know about our fabulous contests and giveaways!

What uses most data?
Thanks for posting, Pam! This is a common question, and we’ve put together a blog that will detail which features use data from your plan and how you can best manage them. Check it out here! In general, streaming media such as music or video will use more data than checking email or Facebook. We’re happy to answer any other questions you may have about your device at 888-345-5509. We appreciate you taking the time to reach out to us, and we hope you have a lovely day!

Just was told I am I using up 75% of my time and do I want an upgrade. Is that free?We were told the plan we have would be $25.00 a month but it is always $30.00……why is that.
Hi Ellen, thanks for your question. It sounds like you’re being upgraded based on data usage. The plan upgrade is an additional $10 and our maximum plan includes 10GB for $40. Please give us a call at 888.345.5509 at your convenience and we can review your usage and plans. If you want to reduce data usage and prevent upgrades, be sure to connect to Wi-Fi at home if you have it; you can also disable data on your device directly. We can help you with that over the phone as well. We look forward to hearing from you!
Can you download apps on the phone and play games
Great question, Sabrina! To download apps or games on your smartphone you will need either a data plan or a Wi-Fi connection; some games require a data or Wi-Fi connection to play as well.
