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

Smart Remote: Control Your Home Electronics with Your Phone

one device to easily take control of a wide variety of electronics (such as TVs, air conditioners,
set-top boxes, DVD players, cameras, projectors, and streaming boxes).

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.
VoLTE: Make Calls and Use Data at the Same Time
VoLTE (Voice over LTE) allows both call and data services to be carried on the same 4G
network, which means you can use the Internet even while making calls. VoLTE also provides
you with shorter call connection times and higher quality voice and video calls.
Both of your phone's SIM card slots support 4G, VoLTE, and VoWiFi, so there is no need to
switch SIMs back and forth.
lDual 4G: Both of your phone's SIM card slots support 4G.
lDual VoLTE: Both of your phone's SIM card slots support VoLTE, allowing you to use the
Internet while making HD calls.
lDual VoWiFi: Both of your phone's SIM card slots support VoWiFi, which allows calls to be
made using Wi-Fi. You can use VoWiFi to make calls even in Airplane mode.

Camera Tips
Highlights: Turn Your Photos into a Personalized Video
Having to sort through a sea of photos to relive and share past moments can be a pain.
Highlights intelligently selects photos and videos by location to generate short video clips, so you
can easily look back on your wonderful memories. You can choose different animation effects
and background music for the videos and share them with friends and family.
lHighlights automatically creates videos based on the geographical information in your
photos. To use this feature, open Camera, go to Settings, and check that GPS tag is
enabled.
lCheck that your Phone is connected to the Internet.
lHighlights albums are created automatically when your Phone is charging, the screen is
switched off, and the battery is at least 10% charged. It may take some time for your
Phone to create the album. Your Phone will not create a Highlights album if there is an
insufficient number of photos or videos in your Gallery.
Use Portrait Mode to Capture Stunning Portraits
Want to always look your best in your selfies? Portrait mode lets you configure different
beautification settings and create an information database for custom beautification.
