After you purchase a 2nd Sight system, you must create a Google account to access the Google Play store where you can access and download 2nd Sight apps to your handheld device (Ruggedized Handheld Computer ("RHC") or other handheld device).*

NOTE: 2nd Sight recommends that you create a Google account specifically for your farm. If you create your own account, please record the log in and password information.* DO NOT use your personal account to avoid having personal information appear on the handheld device. 

To create a Google account:

  1. Swipe up on the handheld's main screen to access the apps
  2. Locate and open the "Settings" icon (gear icon).
  3. Press "Users & accounts."
  4. Press "Add Account."
  5. Press "Google."
  6. Press "Create Account."
  7. Enter a First Name and a Last Name. Press "Next" if you're not directed to the next page.
  8. Enter a birth date and gender. Press "Next" if you're not directed to the next page.
  9. Choose a recommended Gmail address or "Create a different Gmail address."
  10. Enter and confirm a Password. Press "Next" if you're not directed to the next page.
  11. Adding a phone number is optional, add a phone number or press "Skip."
  12. Press "I agree" to the terms.

IMPORTANT: If you are asked to Backup data to the server, select "No." Data from your handheld backs up to two different places. DO NOT provide any credit card information; 2nd sight does not ask for credit card information.

*Your handheld device may have come from 2nd Sight with the apps already loaded. If this is the case, 2nd Sight created a Google account for you and has the account name and password stored for you. If you believe that 2nd Sight created a Google account for you and you need the log in information, please call 2nd Sight at 509-381-2112 to retrieve your log in and password information.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact 2nd Sight at 509-381-2112 or info@2ndsightbio.com
