It is perhaps impossible to find a person now who does not have a favorite and irreplaceable smartphone in his pocket. And at the same time, you will hardly meet someone who knows all the incredible things that these most useful inventions of mankind are capable of.
The Easiest Way to Save Energy
If you set your Android device's wallpaper to black or another dark background, the automatic pixel lighting will turn off and you'll notice that your phone or tablet will last much longer on a single charge. So far, this feature does not work on all Android devices, but, for example, most Samsung smartphones have it. Check it out!
Reproducing text by voice
You can not only read this article, but also listen to it - of course, if you have Android. So if you are one of those who prefer to perceive information by ear, just find the “Accessibility” item in the settings and activate the voice text playback function.
Remote control of a smartphone
Just go to the “Settings -> Security -> Device Administrators” menu and in the “Android Remote Control” section, check the box next to “Remote device search”. Now if you lose your smartphone, you can restore all data and block it through this site.
Enable "Guest Mode"
If you want to temporarily transfer your phone to another person and at the same time maintain the confidentiality of all personal information downloaded to your smartphone or tablet, simply use the "Guest Mode" function. Swipe down with two fingers on the display and in the quick settings window that opens, click on the user icon, which is located in the upper right corner. The “Add Guest” function will immediately appear, and you can choose what actions this person can perform with the device.
Screen Magnifier
People with low vision don't even realize how much this feature can simplify their lives. Just go to Settings -> Accessibility -> Zoom Gestures. You can then enlarge any area of the display by simply tapping on it.
Modem mode
To access the Internet from different devices, it is not at all necessary to buy a separate 3G modem or other device - your smartphone will cope with this task perfectly. Just in the “Wireless Networks” settings column, select “Hot Spot” and check the box next to “WLAN Access Point”. It works!
Control your smartphone with your head
Sometimes there are situations when we just need to use our favorite gadget, but our hands are full or it’s so cold outside that we don’t want to take off our warm mittens. Well, there is a solution to this problem too! By installing the free EVA Facial Mouse app, you can control your Android device using your head movements!
Hidden Game
Starting with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, Google has included a little gift for users on all Android devices that is not so easy to find. But here are instructions that will still help you do this. Open Settings and go to About Phone or About Tablet. Quickly tap on Android Version a few times, and when the little marshmallow appears on the screen, quickly tap on it a few more times. After these actions, a special mini-game will open. Haven't found it yet? What are you waiting for?
