With that in mind, we are going to present incredible features that can transform the way you use your smartphone.
All tests were performed on a Samsung cell phone — a Galaxy M62. It is important to point out that some functions may vary in other models and brands, but they are certainly worth exploring.
One of the most interesting tools is Focus Mode, also known as Focus Mode. It helps to maintain concentration on a specific task or even control addiction to certain applications.
By applying a timer, Focus Mode temporarily blocks access to selected apps, allowing you to stay focused on the important issues.
In this way, once Focus Mode is activated, the applications are unavailable and their notifications are not displayed, avoiding unnecessary distractions.
You have full control of your smartphone apps
To carry out such a configuration is simple and easy. Access the smartphone settings and find the wheel icon, which is usually located in the upper right corner of the home screen.
Tapping on it will take you to the “Digital Wellbeing” option. Within that option you will find the “Focus mode”, in which you can define which applications you want to see and how long they will remain active.
But the news doesn't stop there!
To extend your battery life, we also have a valuable tip. Go back to the smartphone settings and tap on “Device and battery assistance”.
In this alternative, you will find the item “Battery”, the first in the list. When you select it, you will have access to “More battery settings”, an option in which you will be able to activate “Fast charging”.
So you can get the most out of your device without worrying about battery life.
And it has one more amazing feature! Now, with the app timer, you can manage the usage time of your favorite apps.
When activating this function, the application icon will be blocked on the home screen, appearing in gray. During this period, you will not be able to access or receive Notifications.
Now, when trying to use an application after the given time, a message will be displayed that the time has expired. The text will be clear and direct:
“The usage time for this app is over. You used all the time available for today. You can use this app again only tomorrow or adjust the usage time in the settings”.
To configure apps usage time, follow these simple steps:

Select the option “Digital well-being”;
Tap “App Timers”. A list of all installed apps will be displayed;
