How to set up One UI 5.0 Modes:

Samsung offers you a bunch of common modes that you can activate and edit with ease. These include Sleep, Driving, Exercise, Relax, and Work. However, you can create different modes according to the tasks you perform on daily basis.

Here, I am presenting you the driving mode which really fascinated me. With this mode, you can use your GPS while driving and limit interference from applications and notifications. To Activate the “Driving” mode, first head over to the “Settings” app on your Galaxy smartphone.

Visit the “Modes and Routines” menu. On the “Modes” section, tap on “Driving” and the “Start”. From here, you can connect the Bluetooth of your car to your smartphone by checking the option “Bluetooth device is connected”.

Now click on the “Next” button at the bottom of your screen and select your car’s Bluetooth. Hit the “Next” box again. Now enable “Do Not Disturb” mode. And if you want to mark exceptions to do not disturb mode while driving, you can allow “Calls and messages” but also “App notifications”.

Again, click the “Next” button. Now choose the settings to apply when starting the Driving View by ticking the option that suits you. Finally, tap “Done” to finish. Similarly, you can set up all other Modes on your smartphone.

There could be many professions but writing about tech is something that I've chosen and it's what I've been doing. Besides this, I like sketching, roaming, and shopping. I am a casual person and like to taste different dishes and Chinese is my favourite.

How to activate hidden anti-theft feature in your Samsung Galaxy

Samsung S22 battery life

One UI brings a hidden anti-theft feature for your Samsung Galaxy device, letting you secure your data in case of theft or misplacement. If you have a Samsung device and are worried about your sensitive data’s security, One UI’s Auto Factory Reset is here to help.

For starters, Auto Factory Reset is usually an avoided yet hidden anti-theft feature on Samsung Galaxy, which becomes quite useful when you mistakenly lose or misplace your smartphone. Let’s check out the steps and details about this feature to ensure the best data security on Galaxy.

Auto Factory Reset

By default, the Auto Factory Reset comes disabled with your Samsung Galaxy device. When you enable it, your device will be set to automatically reset to factory settings if it detects 20 incorrect unlock attempts in a row including PIN, password, pattern, fingerprint, and face data.

It sounds pretty impressive. In case you lose your device or it gets stolen, the person who tries to unlock it will trigger an auto factory reset unknowingly. The biggest benefit of this feature is the security and privacy of your phone’s data including photos, videos, and documents.

Here’s how to activate

You can find this hidden security feature in your phone’s Settings menu. Just navigate toward System Settings, then enter the Lock screen section, followed by Secure lock settings. Once done, enter your password and turn on the Auto Factory Reset feature using the button.

We recommend you create a backup of your phone’s important data and files before enabling this feature. In case you forget the unlock credential of your phone, it won’t be easy to get access back. And if you or someone else make 20 incorrect attempts in a row, say goodbye to the data, apps, and everything.

Disadvantage?

Since the feature resets your smartphone to factory settings, accounts that you had logged in to before will also be removed. It will remove your Samsung Account and Google Account from your phone, making it impossible to track the phone’s location using the Find My Device service.

Samsung Galaxy S23 big Camera update

Debuted with the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, the Light mode is a function that improves the phone’s performance by adjusting its processing speed and ensures optimum battery consumption.

When operating in Light mode, your Samsung Galaxy S23 device uses less power compared to normal mode with no impact on usage. You can continue to browse the internet, and social media, make phone calls or play videos.

Apart from the Galaxy S23 series, the South Korean tech giant brought the Light mode feature to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 foldable phones. Notably, Light mode does not apply if any game app is running.

Using deep machine learning, the Galaxy S23’s Light mode prioritizes your battery life and cooling efficiency over processing speed. It enables your phone to use less energy in order to save battery life without affecting general use.

Using the Light mode feature, you can significantly extend the battery life of your Galaxy S23 smartphone, even without compromising performance, which becomes frustrating in battery saver mode.

How to activate Light mode

Step 1. Open the ‘Settings’ menu.

Step 2. Tap ‘Battery and device care’.

Step 3. Tap ‘Battery’ settings.

Step 4. Tap ‘More battery settings’.

Step 5. Tap ‘Performance profile’.

Step 6. Tap ‘Light’.

How to get Light mode in Quick panel

Step 1. Swipe down the main menu to open the quick panel and Tap Add button.

Step 2. Press and hold ‘Performance profile’ and drag onto quick panel.

Step 3. Tap “Done”.

Step 4. Tap ‘Performance profile’ to turn on or turn off.

If you don’t have Galaxy S23 or Samsung’s latest foldable phone, sadly, you can’t access the Light mode feature. However, the company should consider sharing the feature with older flagship Galaxy devices via firmware update.
