Are you an Android phone user, but don’t know most of the features it offers? Do you want to discover more secure and interesting features on your phone? Read this article to know some of the Android tips and tricks, which will be useful to you.

Most people in today’s world use Android phones on a daily basis, for calling, messaging, and more. Android is the mobile operating system that most phone manufacturing companies use in their phones. There are plenty of features, rather than calls and messages to peruse. Explore hidden features and lots of tricks to save time on your device.

The basic problem, a phone user faces, is battery problems. Most Android phones have a built-in power strip option, which when activated, provides a quicker disconnect of the entire phone battery, killing apps. Another feature is that you can be the developer of your own phone settings. Go to ‘Settings’, select the ‘About Phone’ option and tap on your phone’s ‘Build Number’ seven times.

A countdown will be displayed on the screen, followed by a command telling you that you are now a developer, and “Developer option” will be displayed just above the “About phone” option.

This ‘developer option’ can also be used to reduce the lag of your Android phone.

By reducing the ‘Window Animation Scale’, ‘Animator Duration Scale’ and ‘Transition Animation Scale’ in ‘Developer Option’ from 1x to 0.5x, your phone may feel faster than before. You can now control those annoying app notifications by long pressing the app notification, in the notification bar, which will show an information icon in the right corner. Tapping this icon gives you the option to prioritize your notifications. You can block unwanted apps, hide private information, or select priority mode for most of the above apps.

To zoom in and out of your Google maps while driving, all you need to do is double-tap on the spot and swipe up or down. This tip will help you avoid the problem of pinching your phone screen while handling your phone so that it stays in place, all while driving.

Today, children use their parents’ phone more often. To prevent your kids from getting into unsafe games, adult content or accidental access to your bank, this feature will be of great help. Go to ‘Settings’, then ‘Security’ and enable the ‘Screen pinning’ option. Open the app you want to pin and protect, then tap the overview button to pin the app.

Another interesting feature is the built-in games in Android phones. In ‘Settings’, select ‘About phone’ and repeatedly touch the ‘Version number’ of the device to get this function.
