I thought there were pre-loaded Apps on this? Do you "have" to have Internet to use this?

Yes there are preloaded apps but you do have to have a wireless network to download additional apps

Internet is necessary. Some apps come with it. Mine crashed about 2 weeks after I got it. I'm returning it and hopefully the next one will be fine. Happy New Year!

I have gotten no satisfactory answers myself and I am not really happy about it. I can't charge the tablet. Any ideas?

There was nothing pre-loaded on mine. You should be able to download all sorts ofg stuff from the internet. Probably can from w-fi hotspots like McDonald's or Starbucks.

there is a simple app on the second page over of apps. click it and it connects. Actually our house has a wi-fi system being in the country side for our internet, so we are our own hot spot.!( no cable out here) It works on the phone great!

Yes, you can. The app isn't installed by default, but is available, and easy to install. It works great.

You can load any program on it. That's the great thing about the tab. Google play is pre-load so you can get free apps from that.

Not with this tablet, heck no. I haven't been able to download a single app. As a matter of fact, apps on Google Play won't even recognize it as a mobile device! The only thing this tablet is good for is to read pdfs, send email or go online. Videos usually load extremely slowly if at all, and it hangs up every now and again, but what else can you expect for this price, right?

I personally don't use internet on this phone but it does have a browser app (not sure how efficient that is) built in, you could use that to check your gmail/hotmail accounts.

Wi Fi is available if U R in a Wi Fi area. U need to tell the phone U R using Wi Fi in the setup area. Anything U do is free unless U go on a paid site to download a paid game. Most of the games on the free sites are quite boring. I believe that most internet functions are available. The draw back is that the screen is rather small and it is very difficult to read anything, I found myself moving the screen around to read, an gave up and went on my computer. The phone itself is really Great. If U Do Not tell setup that U are using WiFi, U will be charged. There is a light on the upper line that lights up letting U know is U are using Wi Fi.

come preloaded with the standard software. it operates by a Windows 8 which has a all an app interface like your Android phone. you will have to make a login username and password to use some of the functions like you would your cell phone. person personally I think it's a great computer! I really don't know what I would do without it. I'm looking forward to getting a touch screen monitor to use even more functions with it the good option if you thinking about buying one.

The only apps available are preloaded by JVC. They are Netflix,Pandora (music only) and Vudu these are the only sites which can be streamed via the internet. There is NOT a browser on this model JVC, therefore the only internet access is by the 3 preloaded apps. You cannot add additional sites that will give you other streaming content. NO BROWSER. You will need to add a Roku or BluRay... some similar device that provides access via WI-Fi or ethernet. The TV itself has WI-fi and Ethernet access for Netflix. Pandora and Vudu but without a browser present, you are stuck with those only. Sorry... the set is great and I have fought that battle with JVC. I was told that they were going to add some other apps, but not a browser... that was over a year ago with no luck. I hate to say this but their "Marketing Hype" in the literature is very mis-leading.

no, the internet options are just netflix, vudu etc. as advertised, it's not really a full internet browser although that would be cool!

The phone comes with a navigation app preloaded, but in order to use it while traveling, you will need to pay your service provider for a data plan. I only use the phone's data functions with wi-fi because I don't have a contract or data plan.

Yes, mine worked immediately. As long as you have a router working off the internet somewhere in the house with a decent signal, it should be able to load your apps. I don't know your details, so if you want, send an email to me.

You can use most apps without Internet. But, yes, wifi is the only Internet connection. No cellular.

Well to be completely honest, I do not know everything this here piece of machinery has to offer. But to what I'm seeing I don't believe that there is one. Most likely because it is just a basic tablet. Therefore it probably would be best to check and make sure that your internet is not going to quit on you. But other then that. I'm still loving this thing!!

Google Play has the app, so I would say, yeah. I used the iPad version - wasn't very reliable, kept losing the wifi between the 2 devices so I stopped using it.

You need the internet to fetch the files needed to run the tablet, you only will need internet while installing or updating drivers, which is not often. You can use the tablet after installing without internet ^^
