Use Shortcuts to Access Frequently Used Features
Touch and hold an app icon to display a menu of frequently used features for quick access. You
can also touch and hold a feature and drag it to your home screen to create a shortcut.
If you touch and hold an app icon and a shortcut is not created, the app does not support
home screen shortcuts.
Quickly access frequently used app features: Touch and hold an app icon on your home
screen, and then touch a frequently used feature to access it. Each app supports up to four
frequently used features. These are preset by the app and cannot be changed. For example, to
take a selfie, touch and hold the camera icon, and then touch Selfie in the pop-up menu.
Add shortcuts to your home screen: Touch and hold an app icon on your home screen to
bring up the menu. Touch and hold the desired feature, and then drag it to your home screen to
create a shortcut. For example, you can add a shortcut for the camera's selfie feature for quick
access to the selfie camera.

lThe Smart Remote can be used with home electronics that have accompanying infrared
remotes. It does not work with devices that use Bluetooth or other non-infrared remote
controls.
lThe remote control will not work when you are in a video call, when there is a phone call
in the background, when there is a third-party app sending a voice message, or while the
earpiece speaker is in use.
lThere is no unified industry standard for infrared codes. This means the Smart Remote
may not be able to control some home electronics.
lTurn your phone into a universal remote control: Add your home electronics to the Smart
Remote and you won't have to worry about misplacing remotes any more. The remote control
buttons can be customized to fit your own preferences so the remote is easier to use.
lUse your phone as a remote control for your camera: Take better group photos by using
your phone as a remote control for your camera. Smart Remote helps you to get the best shot
and capture natural expressions when taking photos.
Multiple Users: Create Separate User Accounts on Your Phone
Want to lend your Phone to someone else but don't want them accessing your private files and
information? Add multiple users and user types to protect your information privacy when lending
your Phone to others. Your settings and files will not be affected. You can also log in to your

Phone with two user accounts, such as one for work and one for personal use, and quickly
switch between them with a single touch.
You can create three different types of users:
lOwner: The Phone's owner. Log in as the owner when you are using your device. As the
owner, you have access to all actions, such as adding or deleting users and guests, and giving
users permission to make calls and send text messages.
lUser: Add family members and close friends as users. Users can perform most actions but
cannot perform actions that will affect the owner, such as restoring the device to factory
settings or enabling Do not disturb mode.
lGuests: Add casual acquaintances as guests. Guests can only perform a limited number of
actions.
