By default, Android 4 and Android 5 phones and tablets sync information from many of Google's services, including Google Calendar, Gmail, Chrome bookmarks, Picasa Web albums and Google Play Music uploads. To stop Android from syncing any or all of this information, deselect the Google components you don't want updated in the Settings app. If you want to stop not only Google but all accounts from syncing, turn off automatic synchronization.
