Galaxy S24 - 10 Hard To Find Settings ( Tips & Tricks )

Okay, if you watch the video of the first things to do or the amazing features of my Samsung Galaxy s24, you might feel like you already know everything, but when you see what I have for you in this video, you might Ask why you didn't do it. Someone show me this first, so usually the middle finger is reserved for special occasions, but it can also be used in a less offensive way that will save you time in the future, so check this out, go to your

settings

, scroll down to where you see security. and privacy, scroll down again to Biometrics and go to fingerprints now.

If you have already mapped four of your fingers, you will need to delete one and register a new one specifically for your middle finger. Once you have registered your middle finger make sure you tap on that and just call it middle or whatever you want now here is the next very important step you want to

find

the Galaxy store the app looks like this you should see it in your app library and then here you want to search for goodlock, make sure to install it. this and now that you have Goodlock you want to go to the Life Up section at the bottom of the page and search for routines and once you have installed the routines, open it up and you will see some templates for some additional routines that are not available. pre-programmed into the device and the one we're going to look at here is this fingerprint for the website, so we're not going to use it to open a website, we're going to use it to open an app. which is much more useful, so look at this, let's go to if and choose middle finger, which is the middle finger.

Right now we're saying go to website, but what we can do here is go to edit and press the little minus sign next to it to go to website and instead we're going to add what this routine will do and here we can set up our middle finger fingerprint to basically do anything on the device, but a good use case for this that I think is very useful is to open the wallet so that in the Up in the search bar we are going to open, you will see the option to open an application or perform an action and then here we will have a lot of options.

What we are looking for is the ready wallet. You can choose the icon for this, I'm going to choose the shopping cart, I'm going to make it red, which is now saved and now it's set up perfectly and the next time you unlock your phone with your middle finger, it will open Google Wallet right away, like this which checks out This if you watched one of my other videos, I showed you how to double press the power button to jump right to your wallet, that's pretty cool, but now we can do it with a single tap and now that you've set up routines, also, Yes Go to the modes and routines

settings

within your settings menu.

You can even assign different actions to different fingerprints if you really want, so you can have one camera for your left thumb. Maybe YouTube for your index finger on your right hand, but I recommend keeping one. digit for just opening your phone regularly anyway you already know how to do it now play with it and let me know how it goes now this feature is fun and your friends probably won't know it's an improved way to use your always on display this works best with photos without much in the background here, for example, I have a photo of The Phantom Menace Oreo, the dog who will soon be renamed Darth Maul because doing things seems to be his God-given ability. set it anyway, look at this if we pinch the home screen, go to wallpaper and change the wallpapers style, select the wallpaper you want to use for your lock screen and apply that wallpaper.

The second step is to go to your settings, go to the lock screen and add where it says always on screen, tap there and here you will see a function called Clear Background and as you can see here in the small window, when we delete the background, it cuts all the background and just leave the dog on the screen, she is a dark colored dog so she is completely getting lost in this image, let me show you a better example: there is a little more brightness in this image, so It should work a little better, so you'll notice here when I go to erase the background, it removes everything. around the dog and just leave the background black, which uses less power when it comes to always being on screen.

The next thing you want to see here is when to show, so normally it will be tapped to show, if you put it on auto mode it will detect that. when your phone is in your pocket or it's night and there is no light and you will turn it off completely, this method is very similar to what the iPhone uses, it consumes a little more power than just tapping to show, but it definitely looks better, so you may want to use it or you can even schedule it if you're worried about battery life, that's how you upgrade, you'll always be on display, so here I have a photo taken from Twitter from a fellow UK tech YouTuber, the man himself. of Steel super safe and you can see in the middle of this photo that we have a mini MKBHD and of course me, Justine, who I met once, told her what time it was, uh, it's 10:30 three, it's Well, actually I didn't.

I literally just ran away anyway check this out if you press the stylus on the new Galaxy AI button now we can fix the problem with this image or at least make it more realistic because mkb HD is pretty high, at least that's what I heard. If you hold your finger down on the subject inside the photo that you want to adjust, you'll get the four dots around the outside and we can move MKBHD or we can resize it so it's probably closer to its original height and you can see there are some spaces behind it of it now and that's where AI comes into play.

You can fill those spaces and combine them with the rest of the image and there we go, we have a slightly improved and more precise image. Yes, AI is not perfect at doing it. This still, but it works, so if you ever have an image where the person in the photo is not exactly where they're supposed to be, you can use this little tool to move them around within the image or resize them, so this is the following. one you've probably seen before, but I'll show you another way you can use it to create fantastic custom wallpapers.

First of all let me show you the basic trick, so if you hold your finger on a part of the image you can turn it into a sticker, you can also share it immediately if you want, if you save it as a sticker it will live in your sticker gallery , which is part of the Samsung keyboard, and you can add these effects to the sticker as well, but you probably already knew that and in case you are looking for these stickers and are not sure where to

find

them, all you need to do is go to the section of emojis here on the keyboard and you should see the icon here which looks like your gallery but it's kind of peeled off like a sticker which is your personal sticker album and you can use them pretty much anywhere on the internet but that's not the trick that I wanted to show you, this is it, look at this.

So these are two very popular wallpapers that I get a lot of requests for here on the channel and I thought well let me show you how you can create something new or your own wallpaper using stickers so here on the wallpaper Wolverine. I'm going to hold my finger down on Wolverine and move it a little bit so it shrinks like this. I'm going to sail to Deadpool. I'll leave it here now we can resize Wolverine, so there we go. I've created a layer here on this wallpaper and you get the idea that you can use multiple layers and add multiple stickers to a background to create your own custom wallpaper.

This looks pretty good as is, but I could add even more to this, let's leave it to Peter. Parker is also there to help you understand how this works. Now you can create a bunch of different stickers, layer them on top of each other to create something truly unique for your phone, and if the stickers don't quite match, you've got the tools. down here at the bottom to adjust the colors and brightness and things like that so everything works better together and let me know in the comments if you want any of my wallpapers. I have a secret link that I am happy with.

To share with you, okay, number four is a camera trick, but before I show you that trick, I want to show you this: Thorn sent me this aramid fiber case for the Galaxy s24, it's super thin and has a safety magnet MAG. Plus you can use magnetic devices on the back of the phone with this case attached, it's super tough, it's super durable and not only do you get the case when you buy one, you also get two screen protectors and cleaning accessories as well as a writing to hand. note from the owner Carl himself and this is where the camera trick comes in, so if you ever receive a handwritten letter like this and want to convert it to text for digital formats, your Samsung Galaxy phone can do that, everything What you need to do is hover over it. over the document and you will see the little T in the bottom right corner, tap that to scan that document and then you can turn that handwritten letter into a Galaxy Note or just copy all the text and paste it. pretty much anywhere I'll add it to a note in the blink of an eye, you've got your handwritten letter in digital text, of course the success rate with this depends on how good the handwriting is.

It's lucky for us. Carl's handwriting is pretty neat and it's almost perfect here, but you may need to cross-reference. Don't trust it 100% if you plan to use it to steal someone else's homework. Well, here's a very useful tip when it comes to organizing photos within your gallery. If you open the gallery at the bottom here you want to go to albums and then here you go to More at the top and here you will notice some options that you have in the standard album, so you can create it manually and place photos in Whenever you want, but this is the auto update album you should definitely use minimum effort, maximum results, in my opinion that's the best way to do things, so if you're going to auto update, call it whatever you want.

I'm just going to call it my name, so here you should see, once you've been using your phone for a while, a bunch of different faces and you can create albums specifically for those people, so if I mark my face, there we go, it's will add 48 photos and every time I take a new photo with myself, that photo will be added to this album and will also be available in the gallery as usual, but this is a great way to filter photos based on who is in the photo. Have you ever been filling out a form on a website or app that takes forever and you get to a point where you need a one-time access code or a reference number from another document or an email or another app, so you leave the form you've been filling out and when you come back, all the information you already filled out is gone.

I feel your pain and yes, there are very few things that are more annoying than that when it comes to ordering things or reserving things on a smartphone, so here's a way to prevent that from happening in the future, say for example, that this is the app we are filling out the form in and all of a sudden we need to go to another app or go to the text messaging app to get a code if you really want to make sure this doesn't update and delete everything on background, all you need to do is swipe up on the background, tap on the app icon and here at the bottom of this list you will see keep open. make sure you tap on that and you'll notice that at the bottom of this app you now have a little padlock here indicating that it's open, so no matter where you go with your phone from here, this will run permanently in the background. and not refresh, which is the most important thing when it comes to forms and this could also be a useful trick when it comes to games and things like that that can reset while you're doing other things, okay?

While we are talking about An annoying situation is when something happens that interrupts what you are doing on your phone. There's nothing worse than when a phone call comes in and completely hijacks your entire screen and there are a few ways you can avoid this. I'm going to show you my favorite. method, so if you go into the phone app, go to the three dots in the top right corner, go to settings on this page, you want to go to the section that says displaying calls while using apps and you can see right now which is set to small popup now, if you really want to minimize distractions, you can set it to Mini Popup and while we're here, it's very useful to enable something else: keep calls on the popup because let's say you pick up your phone and then browse immediately.

Go back to the app you were using before receiving the phone call to hang up, you'll probably have to swipe down your notifications. Return to the phone application to hang up. If you enable Keep Calls in the pop-up window, you will have quick access. Hang up the phone sosoon as the call ends, so play with this. The mini popup is perfect. The small popup is pretty cool. Full screen is not recommended. Well, there is a cool feature on the pixel and on the iPhone where you can touch the back. the devices to start an action on the phone now, when you look at the Samsung phone settings, you might think that it can't do this, but actually if you think you are wrong because there is a way to enable this and it involves going back to the Galaxy store, make sure you have the right lock app, navigate to the top life section and make sure you have this record and as soon as you open the record you will see tap again. action this is something you want to enable.

I have used this in the past and I recommend that you stay away from double tap and only use triple tap because double tap is too sensitive in my opinion, now you can move on to triple tap. tap and here you can choose what you want it to do right now. I have it set up as Google Assistant, but you can assign it to any app you choose, so at one point I set it up as a wallet, but now I have a few different ways to open the wallet. I don't really need it, that's why I set it as assistant, so check this out, a triple tap opens the assistant.

Have you ever been in a situation where you have been playing music on a Bluetooth speaker from your phone and suddenly you are distracted by a notification and you have walked away from whatever it was playing and now there is a Tik Tok video playing on through the speaker instead of music. Well, you can prevent that from happening and allow the music to continue playing and have the audio of whatever. what you want to see still comes through your phone separately, it's very easy to set up, so go into your settings, go to sound and vibration, scroll down to where you see the sound from the separate app, now here this is will be disabled by default many times. people will probably never use this because they don't know it's here, activate it now you can choose the music streaming app you prefer, if it's not here just go to add apps and add it manually and at the bottom here where it says device Audio. you want to tap on that and set it to Bluetooth and as you can see right now, I'm already connected to the clip 4 speaker, which is this little speaker from JBL, quite a handy speaker, this one sometimes with this feature you need to switch.

It occasionally turns itself off and on again if it's not working properly, so keep that in mind, so I'll play a track here on the speaker in the clip, I won't play it too loud, otherwise I'll get a copyright strike, please. what will be played there now. If I exit YouTube Music and open YouTube, let's say, and start playing a video, you'll notice it and drag it anywhere on the home screen for now and you can delete it at the end of this video. Both devices play audio separately. That way you can keep the music playing and continue doing whatever you're doing on your phone without interrupting the music.

In rare cases, you may need to share your mobile data with someone else and this little extra tip will help you. you help someone else in those situations, so if you go to your settings, go to connections, mobile hotspot and tethering, enable hotspot now, when you're on this page, two things to keep in mind, First of all, I recommend that you activate the one-time password. This means you don't have to reveal your real password to that person and once you've used it, it expires and is updated with a new password, so make sure you use a one-time password when you need it and second it.

I recommend that you do, instead of giving them the password, generate a QR code. This means they can use their own phone to scan it and log into your hotspot without you having to read the password in front of other people. someone asks you for your password, you can tell them how about it's new, in my opinion it's a better way to do it. Now I stay on the same page, this is what I really wanted to show you, so let's say that one day your Internet goes out while you are playing an online game and you need to reconnect as quickly as possible so you can get back to kicking butt or, in my case, getting your ass kicked good to get your ass kicked, you should call yourself an ass kicker anyway.

This mobile tethering trick could be very useful for you but it could also be useful for work purposes so on this page scroll down to where you see your network name tap on that now here you will see this slider for band, so 2.4 GHz is pretty fast, okay, it's the most compatible frequency to use; however, if you have an Xbox, a PlayStation, or a PC, you'll get much better speeds from your phone to that

hard

ware if you step this up to get 2.4 and 5 GHz, just 5 GHz and then you have 6 GHz, which is the fastest of all, so if the Hotpot is specifically for gaming, this is what you want to use now, check this out if you expand the advanced section here. you have a few more options, so if you enable the Wi-Fi 6 standard, which is basically the 6 GHz that I just showed you, if you want to get maximum performance, you can also turn off the power saving mode here, that would give you a little more than time.

More of a boost, just make sure your phone stays plugged in if you're going to use it, so here we go, here's how to maximize your hotspot speeds so you won't notice, but Samsung and Google have now teamed up to merge Samsung's Quick Share feature. with Google's Nearby Share feature it's basically Google's version of Apple's airdrop and thanks to this collaboration sharing things between Android phones is now even easier and one of the great features you have here with Quick Share is the ability to Set a time limit for access. so let me show you how this can work now, so let's go to the wallpaper that I just created.

I hit the share button at the bottom and we have Quick Share right here in the bottom left corner, now it's looking for nearby shares and also Quick Share users. so we just need to make sure that nearby sharing is in select visibility for everyone here and immediately my Sony phone appears here, tap on that and it's using Quick Share and nearby sharing here on the Sony phone and voila, the file has been transferred now. This is where we can go one step further. See the three dots in the top right corner here on Samsung. If we are going to turn on private sharing, let's say you want to send a document to your friend or someone, but you don't want to. so that they have permanent access to it, so what you can do here is set the expiration time of that file so that you can send it to them after that time, they will no longer be able to access it, so here is a question for you, Is there a particular day? of the week when you need to remember to do something, for example since I moved out of town and in the sticks they only seem to pick up the recycling bins every 2 weeks which means if I forget to put them out I'll be left with a month of recycling for the next time they pick it up, which is an absolute nightmare, so this is something that has been very useful for me, maybe you can think of a way it could be useful for you too.

This only works with Samsung. clock app, which is this one right here, the abode, so what you can do here is set an alarm, let's say for every Thursday, and within that alarm in the settings, if you scroll down, you'll see that you can set a background for that alarm, tap the background. at the top you want to tap the background here and here you can choose a picture of whatever you need to be reminded of on that particular day and here we go that morning when the alarm goes off and I see a big container of green grass.

I know what day it is and what I have to do now. If you are lucky enough to have the Samsung Galaxy Ultra phone, you may have seen the

I did for the S Pen, where you can create a design on the lock screen using the stylus and when you do this it stays there for a while , but after a while it disappears and all you'll see is this little pin icon. Here now I found a way to recover the artwork. What you have to do is double tap that pin and voila you have your custom hand drawn artwork back on the screen, not my best work but that's just a little tip from another video I made on the Samsung Galaxy and if you guys found this valuable and You didn't see my highlights or first things to do or spending
