1)
Organizing Apps into a Folder
Drag one app on top of another to create a folder. Now
it’s much easier to organize your apps.
2)
Changing Home Screen Theme
Go to “Themes” in the Settings menu, and simply choose
the theme you want to apply. Your own theme will make your phone more unique.
3)
Direct Phone Call from the Lock Screen
Galaxy S6 now lets you make a phone call directly from
the Lock Screen. Just swipe the lower left corner from the Lock Screen, and
you’ll see the Phone icon. Imagine the times when you are struggling with all
those grocery bags in your hands, and you wish you had just one more hand to
help you out. When you finally reach the front of your apartment building, you
can’t wait forever for someone to let you in. At this kind of moment, you can
utilize this quick shortcut on the Lock Screen to make a brief call to your
roommate or family to open the door for you.
4)
Quick Panel on the Security Lock Screen
You can now access the Quick Panel on the Security Lock
Screen (pattern, PIN, password, or fingerprint). With this shortcut, you can
connect to Wi-Fi internet, and enable or disable many other functions on the
Quick Panel without having to unlock the device. This will come in handy when
you’re at a theater and the movie is about to start. You can make your screen
dim in seconds without getting that scolding look from your friends.
5)
Easy Access to Six Apps during a Phone Call
With this added access to six apps (E-mail, Messages,
Internet, Contacts, S-Planner, and Memo) during a phone call, you will be able
to take a quick memo, browse the Internet to search for the perfect restaurant
to meet the person on the phone with you, and mark the date of your meeting
before you forget. Just slide to the next page on the screen while on a phone call,
and you will see these apps.
6)
Enhanced Features, Enhanced Communication
Do you have most of your friends’ photos saved with their
phone numbers in your Contacts? If yes, how many times do you change their
pictures? Or is it still the same one from years and years ago when you first
got their number? Enhanced features are a set of three improved native features
(Contacts, Share, and Messages) that can help you communicate better with your
friends and family. You only need to verify your phone number to sign up for
these features; no other information is required. After this easy sign-up
process, you can enjoy Enhanced features.
While the original Contacts doesn’t include your friends’
status or photo updates, Profile sharing
lets you share your profile information with your friends without any SNS
syncing. Your profile information can include a profile picture, your name,
date of birth, address, e-mail address, and organization. You can also change
the settings to share your profile with only a specific group of people.
Simple
sharing will make file sharing much more convenient. Just choose
the people in your Contacts you want to share photos or any other files with,
and press send. You can share any files up to 1GB at a time, up to 2GB a day.
Recipients who are Enhanced features users will receive push notifications for
downloading the files, and non-users of Enhanced features will receive SMS
messages with a URL. The shared files can be stored in the cloud server for two
days, and can be downloaded all at once without having the user having to
download the files one at a time. When you’re sharing the photos from your trip
to Beijing with your friends, this feature will help you save time.
If you’re tired of boring texts, you might enjoy Enhanced messaging. You and your
friends can talk to each other one on one, and through free group chats, and
exchange images and videos, too.
(These features may not be offered by certain carriers
and/or in certain countries. These features are free over a Wi-Fi connection.)
7)
Gallery Favorites
Whether it is a good-looking selfie, or the amazing
photograph of the Louvre you took during your trip to Paris last summer, add it
to your Favorites. You’ll be able to go back to your favorite photos without
endlessly scrolling through your Gallery.
8)
Simple Music App
When you’re using the Music app, find the menu on the
upper left corner of your phone screen that says ‘Playlists.’ You’ll see the
following options: Tracks, Albums, Artists, Genres, Folders and Composers. The
mini player with basic functions focuses on the fundamentals, with only rewind,
play, and fast-forward controls. SoundAlive adopted a new viewing style,
changing from the old square view to two dials. These dials change the balance
between bass and treble, and between instrumentals and vocals.
9)
New Screen Lock Type: Direction Lock
If you ever had any trouble with accessibility, whether
you were not sure if you pressed the right PIN, or you had difficulty drawing
the right pattern every time, try this new type of screen lock.
Follow these steps to apply the Direction Lock:
Go to Settings -> Personal -> Accessibility (Lock
screen and security) ->Direction lock -> Create series of directions. You
can combine four to eight directions to set up the Direction Lock, which comes
with these useful settings options – Vibration feedback, Sound feedback, Show
directions and Read drawn directions aloud.
