I would say rather than turning off Animations altogether, you can simply speed them up in Developer Options. So things don't go from one screen to another so harshly. It still makes your phone feel snappy, but also still refined.
I too turned off my animation after watching this video and I felt something bugging me while using my phone. I don't think turning it off is a good option man.
It's been 10 years since I've had the Motorola judo chop light, and I still shake my phone to get the flashlight to come on. Even though I know it won't.
@@GetALittleJacko the Google Pixel 7 Pro has an option that allows you to triple tap the back lighter or harder to activated functions such a screenshots. The lighter tap setting makes it more sensitive with the OtterBox installed.
Oh and my favorite feature is tapping three times on the screen to magnify the screen! Settings, accessibility, magnification, magnification shortcut. So useful!!
The fact that you showed me how to pull up the power options when holding down the power button is the best!!! I hated it pulling up Google assistant!!!
Also, _System > Gestures > One-Handed Mode_ which allows you to swipe down on the gesture bar at the bottom of the screen, to slide the screen contents down so you can reach items at the top of the screen.
Thanks for developer mode. Hot tip: in developer mode, change animation and transition time to 0.5. It makes everything snappier while having a bit of animation.
Currently using pixel 5a... I will never buy a pixel phone again. 1. If the phone heats up video recording quality is decreased and it shows a popup "device hot video quality may be reduced" 2. Network quality is not up to the mark 3. Charging takes more than 2 hours and it sucks 4. Dark Mode mode is really useless it is a fully greyish color... Oppo phones has really black drak mode 5. Device heats up even for normal usage..... 6. 4k 60 and 1080p 60 are terrible, it is filled with tons of noise... Jut After 60 seconds of recording there is heavy frame drop in 4k 60 recording, it is very very choppy and its looks like 24 fps... Totally unusable... Even, 4k 30 videos sometimes it is good sometimes filled with lot of noise. It is very inconsistent
Pixel 7 Series dosent heat a bit i have been using it for a while and network speeds are amazing, cant find anything to critizie it about and google constantly updates this phone in span of 3-4 days to fix all the issues, I reported one and they fixed it in 2-3 days @@jeevanandham07
Nice video, i like the part that you explained about split screen options. I have Google pixel 6 and i applied it. Greetings from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴.
Definitely loving this video. It's been a month I'm back to using an android phone. Most of my life I've been using android phone, my last phone was an iPhone SE 1st gen. So, it definitely took me a while to get used to everything especially that my iPhone was small comparing to Pixel 7 Pro. The most helpful for me will be the songs history.
Your video is so great and helpful! I came from iPhone and I'm still getting to know my pixel 7 pro. I love this phone! Thank you very much for the help!
Wow thank you so much for these tips and tricks it's truly helped and I learned a lot within this very video, things I never knew for the last two years of owning my Google Pixel 6 Pro haha! Thank you again and God bless!🙂🙏🏼
I like a lot of these like the power button & double tap. I was hopeful when I saw the spot about rules. What it needs though is the means to detect when I'm driving. I'd like it to have the option to mute alerts and/or change the status in a messaging app I have to use for work.
@@JamesGadberry-cj3qs That's true, but the audio system on my car is too old to work with it. My thinking was more at the a logic level. If the phone is traveling at a speed greater than 30mph then all apps go into a DND mode. Something along those lines.
Double tab, but nowhere in the setting can I see double tab to turn off the device. With my Samsung, double tap on and double tap off. A missed feature on the PIXEL if you're used to that.
do you knonw if there is a safe way to remove the sound of the camera shutter button? and is the "Add rule" feature only location or wifi-based or can I also make a rule that when it's 10pm to make the phone silent? Thanks!
@@LatencyProblem I had the 30 watt official Google plug bundle from amazon it still took 1 hour and very close to two hours to fully charge from empty whilst turned off, I miss my pixel 7a but I don't miss the getting hot for little reason so I sent it bk
That option serves as a NFC tap to pay in many phones. If u were to switch to a pixel from OnePlus I'd be annoyed. My OnePlus gives you Google assistant with a swipe up from the bottom corner. Super easy, but it requires hiding the power button to bring up your cards so it's also safer since it can't be done by mistake.
i like 3 button menu on my phone and in pixel 7 there is an option for that but the 3 buttons are plaved for a person who uses the phone with right hand and I am a left handed guy and for those buttons are mirrored and I can't change their location quite irritating. Such small functionality and they haven't even looked into it , such a shame
The Pixels 7 Pro phone it is really wonderful and Great phone the Google Pixel 7 Pro phone it is a lot new and amazing Phone Stores at Verizon and at the T mobile Phone Store in town in all over in Greenville the best Google Pixel 7 Pro phone
@@katlyncarter8890 ooh no, what kind of friend will do such thing like that? You are free to choose what phone you use, most of the Pixel 6a reviews say that the phone is a great phone.

The tap gesture is a game changer. I miss doing the motorola chop for my flash light but this makes it so much better.
The Tap gesture works also on my moto g72

I LOVE the Motorola chop
Except most people have a phone case and this feature doesn't work through case backs.

You can access notification history by tapping "no notifications" as well, no need to dig into settings once it's on
Very informative. I learned a couple of things I didn't discover while exploring my Pixel 7 Pro.

Google still hasnt found a way to have google maps use the full window in Landscape mode.why i dont know.
hold for me option is not available in google pixel 6a in india location? any suggestions on this how to get it?
Very informative 👌
Thanks
loving the pixel 7 so far, its just the heating issues that makes it less attractive, but i guess all phones have some form of overheating
In that occasion does it overheat?
How's the battery life
No heating issues, here
Great work man.
Very nice and educative tips
Rules is so so so useful feature!! Only downside is there is only a few little things to customize
The item I wish the pixel had was a sidebar! I love a sidebar!
Great video. Thanks.
I miss the scroll ball on the back of 4a 5g you could scroll text and web pages with the back .
Double tab, but nowhere in the setting can I see double tab to turn off the device. With my Samsung, double tap on and double tap off. A missed feature on the PIXEL if you're used to that.
My iphone was stolen and i switched over to a pixel 7 that I have as a backup. Just getting used to it and this video was an incredible help!
Is there a way to open free-form windows over other applications? By default it opens on home screen and closes after opening another app
thanks for the cool tips!

Camera, arrow top left, more settings, camera sounds. Turns off shutter sound.
@@rachellemoore3418 oh I forgot to add that my phone came from Japan, I didnt know when I bought it from the online shop I bought from

Maybe they can do something about a $900 phone getting so hot it can't be touched or in 2023 it takes 2 hours to charge the damn phone.
You sound salty
It takes an hour 19ish for wired. You really should get a 20+ watt charger for your Pixel

Dude, I got it for $300.
And after updating to Android 14 battery is better and heating is very minimal
There is an option on pixel 7 to add users from the lock screen, I have enable this but I see no difference in the lock screen
I have a pixel 7 and it’s s good
I don't mind the assistant at the power button. I mean, how often do you actually turn off or restart your phone? Not very often but the assistant?

Hello what is the font size setting of your Pixel? Or width size
"things that I do when I buy a pixel" while wearing an apple watch 😂
What color is this?
No Hold for me option in my pixel. How to do it.?
What should i get ? Pixel 7/ galaxy s21 fe / iPhone 11 pro?
Pixel 7 IMO.
@@smsmuadmoulana thank you. I have already ordered it
I want to know how to power off before lock opens. Please tell me
Don't hold the power button, just tap it should work.
Can't find the Split screen options on my 7a. Did they maybe get rid of them at Android 14?
Still It's available in Android 14.
How to change the ringtone setting where the volume increases gradually how to change that if any body know please tell me thank you
Search the word gradually in the settings app
How can I disable access to the quick settings, so that it is not accessible from the lock screen? I'm using the Pixel 7.
This is not possible yet 😢
Double tab lock is not available
The back tao works pretty better as compared to apple
i dont like how hold for me is only available in usa canada and australia... Also i get a pixel phone but not google1, only 3 months free?? come on
Wait...doesn't the built in Speaker Phone do the same thing as Hold For Me?🤷♂️ Seems like some of these Pixel features are fun but kinda useless.
Bro doesn't even know how to go to the recently used app by just swiping the gesture hint!
Animations to .5 from day one
wowowow
3rd doesn`t work in Spanish language 😢
Would it be stupid if I switched to google pixel 6a from iPhone 13?
