Android tricks and some of these you might know some of them might not but either way you will be an Android probe by the end
All right. First up is copying text in split screen mode. So here I'm looking at a recipe and if I click on that recents icon and actually open up this Chrome tab in split screen. I can actually then open up notes for example and copy all this text by selecting it and then I just click and hold and drag it down and look at You can copy text from one split screen to the other. Not only can you do it with text like this? Let's say for example, you're trying to find the address of some place and you want to put it in your maps. You can simply click and hold down and then drag it into your maps and start the direction straight away. I think this is really never deep while we're on the topic of maps. You can actually save your Maps offline. So you do not need data when navigating so if you click in the top Up left hand corner right over here. You will see an option that says offline maps. If you select that you can then say select your own map. And from there. You can actually then decide what area of the map you would like to save offline you click the download button and a verb and you've got a bunch of Maps offline. You can do more than one and this is really really helpful for saving data.
Oh, I like this one. Did you know if your TAP three times on your screen? You can actually magnify it and still operate your screen still check out what's going on. But all obviously magnified if you then tap again G times, it'll take you out of the magnified View and this works within applications as well. No matter where you are on your device. If you tap three times it'll magnified which is so cool. You do actually have to activate this. So if you head on over to settings and scroll all the way down until you see accessibility Simply select that and then select visual enhancements. Once again, if you scroll down you will see the option that says magnification then there'll be a couple more options and here you can see triple tap to magnify and you can actually toggle it on or off if you like and I actually use this a lot surprisingly now Google lens can be used for so many things but did you know that if you take a picture of a business card, it'll actually pick up all the information on the business card. Like as you see here and then each one of these dots actually represents the information that it's picking up whether it's an email address a location a website. It's honestly so cool. And from there you can quickly add this contact to your phone. This is another really Nifty one and it's double tapping on your time. If you do that, it'll open up the clock app. And if you're someone who uses the stopwatch or time and regularly just double tap on your time to get there a lot faster. Another really quick and epic thing you can do is click and hold on almost any application and access quick shortcut. So here I started a voice recording immediately just by clicking and holding down. Here's an example of Google Maps that shows my work or home root. You can do it with WhatsApp chats you can do it with the camera some applications like Instagram don't have quick shortcuts, but 99% of apps do let's say for example, you're in a meeting and Someone starts calling you and you want to quickly stop it from running. All you do is place your palm on the screen and it'll stop your phone from bringing out loud. Another gesture you can do is simply pick up your phone and turn it the other way around face down and this to will stop your phone from ringing out aloud but will not reject the cold. This is something I use so much and it's creating shortcuts. So if this is a Ruth I use often in maps I can click on this dots
And then say adverts to home screen what this will do is then add a shortcut to my home screen so that whenever I want to quickly navigate this route, I can click on the shortcut that I added and it'll open straight away. It's so Nifty and a lot of apps actually offer this Spotify is another great example, I can add a shortcut to my favorite playlist. So here I just say again add to homescreen and we'll add the shortcut to my home screen when I click on it. It'll immediately start playing this playlist and the same goes for WhatsApp. Means so many different things guys to check this out in your apps. Did you know that if you double tap the recent apps button, it'll actually toggle between the two most recent applications that you've been using. So here I am on Instagram, but if I want to go back to YouTube just double tap the recent and then it'll open up YouTube. I can watch some more steps. Go back to Instagram and try them out. This is so cool guys. I love me some text shortcuts if you go into settings and search. Board, you will see a setting that says on-screen keyboard once in their select the keyboard that you're using. So I'm using the Samsung keyboard you select whichever one you're using and within your keyboard look for a selection that says text shortcut. So here I am I selected it and now you can create any text shortcut you want by just simply clicking on ADD. So the shortcut was Hey and then obviously my message went in and I click add so then when I'm using my keyboard and I actually type out the word hey here, you'll see the option if Click on that it'll add in obviously the whole sentence. So another example is saying sub and then my whole long message I added that to my text shortcut. So if I type the word in the sub, I can select the long line of text and it will populate automatically visual elements are really awesome for someone who just wants to see things a bit better on the device. If you go to settings and accessibility, you'll see the option that says visual enhancements if you click on that they are serving Different settings you can toggle on and off for example high contrast fonts. You can also change the look of the keyboard. If you actually select this option, you can see and try out these different High contrasting keyboards and decide which one might be best for you or if you even like these options you can also add the size of the font. You can make a font bold and then here's what it actually looks like once you do change the font if say you go into your files or settings. So these are really great options if you having a hard time seeing things on your device, and I just love
Is this option to visually change things the way you want? Did you guys know that if you lose on this place your device you can quickly hop onto Google and type in find my device from there. It will instantly send your phone a message saying that it's located the device and show you a map of where your device is from there. You can actually choose some other options too quickly erase your phone or to even continuously ring your device until you locate it and tell it to stop. Ringing so always remember this if you lose your device guys, this is one of the first things I do whenever I get a new device and it's going into settings and typing in do not disturb here. You will see the option come up and basically what do not disturb does if you toggle it on is it does not disturb you with notifications messages or phone calls during a specific time or day that you set so here I am deciding on what days and on what time I do not want to be disturbed with Vacations Etc. So from 10 o'clock at night until 7:00 in the morning when I'm sleeping. I do not get vibrations notification sounds anything like that quick link sharing is also super Nifty. So if you want to share a picture like I don't know. Mr. Bean, all you do is click on that shit icon and at the top here, you'll see share large files. Once you've selected that it'll actually create a link that if you copy and share with anyone they'll be able to access. Is that mr. Bean picture? So I'm just popping this in a WhatsApp chat and sharing it. And like I said, if anyone actually clicks on that link, it will open up the image and then they can download the file or image that you put in there and keep in mind that this link will expire after a couple of days number 15 is Chrome split window. So let's say you're browsing for your favorite YouTuber and you come across their website. We'll all you do is you open this website in a new But then you decide you still want to keep browsing Google as well. You can click on the recent button and open up Google Chrome and split screen from there. You are going to choose another application. It can be anything whatsoever.
