How to Create a Google+ Circle for Gmail Contacts Using an Android Smartphone

If you have an active Gmail account and use your contacts to chat on Google Talk, you can add those important contacts to a Google+ Circle as well.

A Google+ Circle can be created and members can be added to it very easily when the account is accessed via a desktop computer or laptop PC. However, things might get a bit tricky when you try to perform the same task using any Android smartphone.

While using an Android smartphone, if you want to create a Google+ Circle and add Gmail contacts to it, you must have the Google+ app installed on your phone. Once the app is successfully installed (which in most cases is already available on smartphones as a built-in program), and your phone has an active Internet connection, you can follow the steps given below to get the job done:

    ■Turn on your Android mobile.
    ■Tap the Menu button to open the apps list.
