You’re probably familiar with Samsung’s quick settings. For those who didn’t already know, quick settings is a panel that you expand by swiping down. The feature allows you to easily and quickly turn various options on and off via icons. The disadvantage of this feature is that there is no room for all settings, so there is a good chance that you miss something. Fortunately, you can easily adjust this. First, open the quick settings and click on the plus icon. A panel of available icons will appear. Drag the icon you want to the quick settings and click ready. It is also possible to remove settings that are already in the quick panel by swiping them back.

4. Make use of Edge panels.

Edge Panels have been around since the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but have been greatly improved since then. The feature no longer spills over into the deflected edge, so you no longer have to worry about a distorted icons. Nevertheless, many users tend to neglect the Edge panel. It certainly can’t hurt to give the feature a try. Thanks to Edge Panels, you can navigate to your favorite apps without having to open the home screen. There are also a number of other delightful Edge features, including a list of shortcuts for frequently used contacts and Smart select for taking screenshots or GIFs.

5. Keep the screen on as long as possible

When reading eBooks or watching a movie, the last thing you want is for the screen to unexpectedly fail. Samsung has come up with something for that. With the help of the “screen on while displaying” function, the screen always stays on as long as you look at it. The feature detects your face via the front camera and turns off the screen when you’re done looking. You set the function by navigating to “advanced features”. Then select ‘gestures and movements’ and enable the option ‘screen on while viewing’. Note: the feature is a great outcome, but is not the very beneficial for your battery. Your battery is likely to run down faster and weaken in the long run. So use screen on during playback moderately.
