I have heard this but been unable to test it as I use a Samsung and a non-default Gallery app. BUT.
Apparently on iOS if you use the draw tool and draw a circle, square, diamond or other simple shape, you can hold on the final point and the app will clean up the lines and make them straight/symmetrical/properly curved.
Firefox on Android supports add-ons
What are some good addons?
All the greatest hits on desktop are here. Like uBlock Origin, of course.
Nice one thanks
You can turn off notifications for individual apps.
It's astonishing how many people don't know this and get blasted with notifications all the time.
Smartphones have emergency SOS features people often don't know about. Googles is here. It's really simple and can help you out
PipePipe exists yet so many people suffer through YouTube ads.
iOS: 3-finger tap to get a bar with undo/redo and copy/cut/paste buttons.
Wow, thats useful!
For mine?
Double press power button to go straight to camera.
Long press volume up to skip forwards in poddies, skip tracks in music.
These might be Motorola only features.
For most models and brands: Island app so you can run two copies of the same app with separate or sandboxed settings, without having to swap users.
If you didn't set those up yourself it might be a model thing to have those by default. On my Moto G 5G the power button thing isn't bound by default. Though the volume button media thing is set for when the screen is off. There's a section in the settings for gestures with all of them.
Options for my model at least have a couple cool "kinetic gestures" as they call them. If you hold the phone in one hand and make 2 quick chopping motions it'll turn on the flashlight, if you instead twist your wrist back and forth twice quickly that'll open up the camera. Both work even if the phone is locked.
Might have to look into that island app though.
They're tracking your wrist, bro! They probably have years of wrist-data on you.
I had to think way too long about what you said there to finally get it. Sometimes I'm way too ace for the internet I swear. I sat here for several minutes like "What the heck do they mean? They're just looking for a specific pattern in the phone's gyro sensors and accelerometer. Why would that be interesting?"
It threw me a little. And I even thought it might have been a dirty joke but I couldn't find it because in my mind if you're using your phone for that you're trying to keep it as steady as possible. Gods I'm dumb.
Yeah I have the chopping torch thing too. Quite handy.
I probably tinkered with the settings when I bought it (g84) so they might not be defaults.
G84 did have that along with ability to show clock on movement. It was quite handy to check for possible notifications too by just nudging the phone while it is sitting on the table.
I don't have that feature now in Edge Stylus.
Niagra Launcher on android phones! It completely changes the paradigm for finding and launching apps and navigating your phone
I am not sure what extra phone features my phone has that I don't know about. But I think, yes, the notification curation feature and also the SOS feature that these comments section mentioned. However, I want to tell you what came to my mind just now. It's called "Personal Safety" on Android devices. These can be applied before entering situations like these: if we are going to a place we suspect is dangerous, we can turn on the active Personal Safety feature. The recipient notifications will ring if the participant's phone has low battery, low signal, or if the SOS button is turned on, or I can't remember the others because I haven't discovered it fully yet. Let us know if you guys understand the idea of it.
