Motorola smartphones

Motorola smartphones is a line of primarily Android-based smartphones (meaning they are powered by Google’s Android operating system), made by Motorola Mobility.

Motorola smartphones offer the functions and features to be expected from a smartphone such as the ability to take a photograph, edit videos on a touch-screen interface or send emails. In addition, these smartphones provide access to the Google Play store, which gives users the ability to download millions of apps – from Netflix to Instagram.

Motorola smartphones have parental controls and safety settings available and these can be accessed through the Google Family Link app. This allows parents to block or limit apps on their child’s smartphone, limit screen time and manage access to specific websites. They can also restrict apps and games on Android devices by using the Google Play parental controls.
