Hello. Thank you for your feedback. Please be sure to check for app updates in Google Play Store to make sure that the apps are the latest. Also, if the available memory is low, you may want to remove unused installed app and/or move pictures or document files to a memory card or your computer. This will allow more memory for the tablet's performance. Hope this helps. - Kevin.Service good tablet not so good

The Tab 8 Plus is a tablet that has the capability to connect via Wi-Fi and Cellular Data (Verizon SIM card with a data plan). The Cellular Data is necessary when you have no connection to the internet via Wi-Fi. Having the Verizon data plan will allow you to access the internet wherever the service is available and allow you to travel with it. Hope this helps. - Kevin.
