CoverScreen OS released of the Galaxy Z Flip 4 [Download Link]
The Galaxy Z Flip 4 is Samsung’s latest clamshell design foldable smartphone, which is equipped with a tiny yet productive screen on the rear cover. Meanwhile, you will be required to unfold your Flip 4 in case you want to do anything substantial as the device supports just six widgets and a handful of customization options.
Crossing the native limits of the Samsung Flip phones’ cover screen, the 3rd-party CoverScreen OS provides you with an enhanced software experience, which is now available for the Galaxy Z Flip 4 as well. It simulates a significantly more functional secondary screen OS for Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Flip 3 too.
