Smart Connect

Use the Smart Connect application to set what happens in your device when you

connect or disconnect an accessory. You can also use Smart Connect to set a specific

action or a group of actions to launch on your device at certain times of the day.
For example, when you connect your headset, you can create an event so that the

following actions are launched on your device:

Between 7am and 9am, when you commute to work, the "WALKMAN" application

starts, and the web browser opens the morning paper. The ring volume is set to

vibrate.

On the way back from work, the FM radio starts, and a notes app opens showing your

shopping list.
