Q: Hello, I have a large iTunes library that I hope to upload to iTunes Match or Apple Music. Is this phone compatible with Apple Music?

A: iTunes library or the Apple Music app is available in Google Play under apps for Android phones. You would have to know your Apple sign in information, either receive the 6 digit confirmation code on an Apple device or have Apple send it by SMS to your current phone number and once you sign in you'll have your library on your Android device/s. Hope that helps.

A: Activate today is for anyone who ports their number from their current provider to their new phone. YES, you can buy under activate later then put your Pre-Paid VZW sim in your new phone because the S23 is compatible with VZW and your new phone will have your current number. How do I know? I also am a VZW pre-paid sim user and I'm able to put the sim in different phones...
