Social media

If you have an Android phone, you likely use it every day. Phones are used for making calls, taking photos, or scrolling through social media. But did you know that your phone has many useful features, yet few people use them? These features not only make your work easier but also help with security, convenience, and time savings. Let's learn about six great Android features that few people know about.

Digital Wellbeing & Focus Mode - If you spend too much time on your phone, this feature is for you. Digital Wellbeing tells you how often and which apps you use throughout the day. You can temporarily block distracting apps by turning on Focus Mode, making it easier to stay focused on your studies or work.

Split Screen Mode - This feature allows you to use two apps simultaneously, such as a YouTube video on one side and a Notes app on the other. This feature is very useful for multitasking, but most people don't know about it. To turn on Split Screen Mode, simply press the 'Recent Apps' button and select 'Split Screen' on an app.

Screen Pinning - Sometimes we need to hand our phone to others, such as to show a photo. Screen Pinning allows you to lock only the app you want to show. The other person won't be able to exit that app until you unlock it. This feature is found in 'Settings > Security > Screen Pinning'.

Voice Access / Voice Control - The Voice Access feature allows you to control your phone entirely through voice commands. You can operate your phone by saying commands like 'Open YouTube,' 'Send a message to Rahul,' or 'Scroll down.' This feature is especially useful for those who have difficulty using a touchscreen.

Quick Tap Gesture (Back Tap) - Newer Android versions include a 'Quick Tap' feature that lets you double-tap the back of your phone to perform actions, such as taking a screenshot, opening the camera, or invoking Google Assistant. This can be set up by going to 'Settings > System > Gestures > Quick Tap'.

Nearby Share - This is Android's own 'AirDrop'-like feature. It lets you instantly send photos, videos, or files to nearby Android devices, even without the internet. This is a fast, secure, and easy way to share files that few people know about.
