One of the best-hidden features of the Samsung Galaxy is the Secure Folder. This is a special space on your phone where you can store private photos, files, and apps. To access it, you need a PIN, password, or even biometric login for extra security. “It’s like having a mini safe on your phone,” says Galaxy user Sarah Lee.
Smartphones have many features that make life easier, but many go unnoticed. Whether you have an iPhone, Android, or Samsung Galaxy, your phone probably has hidden tricks you haven’t discovered yet. Here are 10 features you may not know about.
For iPhone users, one underrated feature is called “Back Tap.” This allows you to set shortcuts for tasks by tapping the back of your phone. “It’s incredibly useful for things like turning on the flashlight or taking a screenshot,” explains iOS expert John Doe. To set it up, go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap and pick your desired actions.
If you own an Android phone, you may be missing out on the Split Screen feature. This lets you run two apps at the same time, making multitasking easier. To use it, swipe up to open the app drawer, select an app, and then choose the “Split Screen” option. “Not all apps support this, but for the ones that do, it’s a game changer,” says Android developer Jane Smith.
Both Samsung Galaxy, iPhone, and Android devices offer useful hidden features that can help make your smartphone experience smoother. Whether it’s securing your personal data or making multitasking easier, these tips can help you get more out of your phone.
