TEN AWESOME TIME SAVING HACKS & FEATURES ABOUT YOUR ANDROID
Hey guy's
as you all know android is the most user friendly operating system in the world plus it has most amazing featuers that barely other operating systems can do,from them some featurs are really amazing that saves your time and some of them can help you to make your work faster.
Ten amaizing time saving hacks and features about android:
this is one of the more widely known tricks with the help of which you can become the developer of the android system of your own mobile after you enable it
For enabling this feature you need to follow these simple steps
Navigate to Settings > About phone and tap on your phone’s build number seven times. You’ll get an onscreen countdown, eventually followed by a message saying “Congratulations, you are now a developer”.
(2) CHANGE THE ANIMATION SCALES
For the most part, the latest Android phones already feel very snappy. However, after the latest Nexus 5X only shipped with 2GB of RAM, some users were left feeling a bit underwhelmed by Google’s hugely popular product line.
There are also lots of popular entry-level phones that come with slower processors and only 1GB or 2GB of RAM.
One solution is to change your phone’s “Window animation scale”, “Transition animation scale” and “Animator duration scale” from 1x to 0.5x. Granted, it won’t actually make your phone faster, but it will make it feel faster.
Go to Settings > Developer options and scroll about two thirds of the way down the list to find the necessary options (you’ll need to have first enabled Developer Mode).
(3) CLEAR APP DEFAULTS
It’s annoying when a link opens in a certain app rather than in the browser. It could be a YouTube link, a tweet, or a Facebook page — you’ll end up waiting around while your phone shuts down Chrome (or your browser of choice) and fires up something else.
It’s easily fixed.
Go to Settings > Apps and find the app that keeps opening. Once there, scroll down to Open by default, press it, and then select Clear Defaults.
If that doesn’t work, try doing the same with your browser app as well.
(4) QUICKLY CHANGE YOUR WIFI NETWORK
how to quickly switch between WiFi networks is not very obvious. Sure, you can go to Settings > Wi-Fi and change it there, but there has to be a faster way, right?
Swipe down twice from the top of your screen to open the Quick Settings menu, and instead of pressing on the WiFi icon (which disables it), instead press on the network’s name. You’ll immediately be given a list of all the networks in your vicinity.
That is, if your version of Android supports this.
(5)QUICKLY ACCESS QUICK SETTINGS MENU
Speaking of the Quick Settings menu, did you know you don’t actually need to double swipe in order to access it?
Instead, a similtaneous two-finger swipe will have the same effect.
(6) CAST YOUR SCREEN
Do you own CHROMECAST?
If yes , you can easily mirror your Android’s screen (and individual apps) by using the cast function.
Just open the Quick Settings menu and hit Cast. Your device will find your Chromecast (assuming it’s on the same local network), and you’re good to go.
It’s great for playing games on a larger screen, showing off photos to family and friends, or playing your music through a louder set of speakers. Though many apps, like YouTube, have a dedicated cast button within the app.
(7) MANAGE APP NOTIFICATION
If you want to block the notification of any app you are getting annoyed, then just longpress the ICON of that app, and select the Info option and you will presented with the notification settings for the app in question
You can do things like block all its notifications, allow it to override priority mode, and make it hide private information.
(8) PRIORITY MODE
Priority mode is probably one of the most underrated and underused features on the entire operating system.
In short, it allows you to put your phone into quiet mode, but still allow some “noises” to get through. This could be calls, texts, or WhatsApps from specific contacts, notifications from certain apps, or important alerts such as alarms.
To set it up, go to Settings > Sound & Notification > Do not disturb, then select the options that you require.
It can be quickly toggled on and off from the Quick Settings menu.
(9) ZOOM MAP
Ever need to use Google Maps one-handed? (No, not while you’re driving!)
Just double tap the screen and swipe up and down to zoom in and out — it’s a lot less fiddly than trying to pinch your fingers and hold your phone at the same time!
(10) SMART LOCK
Smart lock is super useful. It removes the need to use a keypad lock when you’re at home or in another “trusted” environment.
It can use GPS, certain networks, your face, or even your voice to prevent your phone from locking itself, making for a much faster and hassle-free experience.
Head to Settings > Security > Smart lock to set it up.
