## What does the Easy Installer do?



The Easy Installer is a software that will guide you as you flash /e/OS on your phone all by yourself. Unfortunately, you can't just plug in your phone and wait until the process is done. There is always some manual action required. The Easy Installer will tell you what and when you have to do something. For example: pressing one or several physical buttons, taping on some buttons, enabling options, rebooting your phone, etc.
