Android Phone Tips

One of the most useful benefits of Android smartphones is that they are extremely customizable. You can customize everything from your home screen to the way you access documents and download apps.
Happily, customizing your Android smartphone is not very difficult.
 

Follow these simple suggestions to design your smartphone to better fit your life.

One-Touch Dialing
There are undoubtedly certain numbers that you dial more regularly than others. With Android smartphones, you can set up one-touch dialing for those people that you call the most. Simply press an open space on the screen and select the “Shortcuts” option. Then press Direct Dial and pick the right person out of your list of contacts. Now you can call that individual by simply pressing a single button.

Saving Time Searching the Web
If you have Web sites that you visit everyday, you can customize your home screen to incorporate shortcuts to these sites. To achieve this, press and hold the desired site in your browser’s bookmarks until a list of options pops up. Select the option “Add Shortcut to Home.” You’ll then see the selected Web page appear on your phone’s home page.

Organizing with Folders
Creating folders on your Android phone can help you keep everything organized; from contacts to pictures to work documents. To create folders on your home screen, press a blank space on the screen. When the menu pops up, choose “Folders.” This will allow you to create folders and name them. Then, simply, drag and drop documents, images, and files into these folders.
