Open a document sent by email

Learn to open a document sent by email, in 3 short steps.

3 steps · about 2 minutes · practice it with SafePhone Pro

Step by step

  1. Open "Mail" (the red envelope). It is in the list of all apps: slide up on the Home screen.
  2. Tap the email from "Springfield Water": it has a paper clip, so a file is attached.
  3. Under "Attachment", tap the file "Water-bill-October.pdf" to open it.

These steps are written for SafePhone, a pretend Android-style smartphone in your web browser. On your own smartphone, the buttons and menus may look a little different, but the idea is the same.

Practice it where nothing can break

SafePhone works like a real smartphone, but nothing you do goes anywhere. Try every button, make mistakes and start again.
