Here are the secret features on Android that not many users know about:
1. End Call with Power Button
Did you know there's a more practical way to end an ongoing call than by touching the end call button on the screen. You can use the power button instead. How to activate this feature, all you have to do is open the settings, then select accessibility, then select activate the toggle power button to end the call.
2. Launch the App in the Floating Tab
Android gives you the freedom to open apps in small floating tabs that don't take up the entire screen. You do this by going to the developer options, then just scroll until you find the freeform windows option, then restart your phone once. After that, just go to recent apps and press the app icon in the top corner and select freeform. You can adjust how big the apps fill the screen with this feature.
3. Print from Android
The need for printing is now increasingly needed. That's why Android is also actually equipped with wireless printing technology. All you have to do is press the share button on the document and select the print option then select your connected printer.
4. Use Mouse and keyboard on Android
Want to make your Android smartphone like a PC? You can do this by connecting your wireless mouse and keyboard to your Android phone. The method is the same as you connect other Bluetooth devices and with a few easy steps, you can already use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard on an Android phone.
5. Google Search as a Substitute for Shazam
Have you ever been on a walk and heard a song from a distant speaker but didn't know the title of the song? Usually you can trick it by installing Shazam. But actually this feature already exists on Android by default and is a secret Android feature. All you have to do is open the Google application then press the microphone logo on search and select browse for songs to detect the song currently playing on the speaker.
6. Switch Tabs in Chrome Easily
Google Chrome users on Android who frequently open and move tabs at once at one time certainly feel lazy having to switch tabs by pressing the tab selection button too often. There is an easier way, that is, just swipe right or left on the box that says website and you will immediately switch tabs to the side, easy, right?
7. Flip the HP to Mute Ring
Sometimes if we are busy with a lot of work then someone suddenly calls, of course it makes us upset. The option to silence call notifications is also not an option, especially when we are waiting for a call from our boss, for example.
There is an easier way by using the feature to turn the cellphone upside down to silence the ringer. The trick is to enter the keyword: gesture in the search in the settings then look for the mute with gesture option.
8. The Grid Line feature on the Camera
Another secret Android feature that many users don't use is the grid line feature on the default camera. By activating the grid line you will get a more accurate composition by determining the focus point that you want to prioritize.
That way your shots will look more professional. Usually just go into the settings in the camera app and select enable gridlines.
9. Easily Access Symbols on Gboard
If you are still pressing the symbol button on Gboard to switch from qwerty to symbol mode, maybe you need to practice this Android feature to save a little time. The method is there, you just have to hold down the symbol button from swipe to the symbol you want to appear and then release.
10. Turn off Caller ID
There is a way to remove the caller's name when we try to call. The method is also quite simple, just press #31#the recipient's cellphone number on the dial and you will remove the caller ID.
So, those are some secret Android features that you might find useful. Do you still have any special tricks that can help make Android use even more useful?
