These gadgets can make your Android phone more useful
Many people say that Android is not as good as iPhone, it is slow, slow and consumes power (not really). It is true that from the perspective of ease of use, Android is still a little behind iOS, but the biggest feature of Android is openness. We can completely "tweak" our Android devices to make them more usable by installing some apps. Thanks to the new feature of the Android system - "Accessibility" (also called "Accessibility"), all the apps mentioned here can be used without "root permissions "! Pie Control: One finger replaces virtual buttons Pie Control is a gesture control app on Android. You can call out a "Pie"-shaped control panel from the side of the screen with simple gestures, and easily achieve functions such as "Back", "Desktop", "Launch Application", etc. Pie Control is highly customizable and supports many functions and shortcuts. However, the most applicable ones are the three most basic "Back", "Home" and "Task" buttons, which are enough to replace the annoying virtual buttons at the bottom of the screen that take up space in most cases. Pintasking: Switch applications elegantly with a swipe of a finger When there are too many background tasks, we often hesitate for a long time in front of the task switching card, not knowing where the application we want to switch to is. With floating windows and gestures, Pintasking can turn the edge of your screen into a "task bar" on your phone, allowing you to easily switch between several apps. First, press and hold the Home button and swipe up (the physical button is usually long-press the Home button) and then select "Pin this task". Then Pintasking will create a floating ball of the app on the edge of the screen. Click it to switch to the app. However, the free version can only open two floating balls at the same time. If you want to open more, you need to buy the Pro version. In the settings of Pintasking, you can also enable a "Swipe Pad" function. SwipePad is actually a gesture control. Sliding down in a specific area will trigger the effect and switch to the previous app. It saves the tediousness of switching apps by swiping out Pie Control, selecting the task, and then clicking the task you want to switch. Pintasking only needs a swipe of your finger. Link Bubble: Seamless background web experience Android has a mechanism that people love and hate, which is that it allows applications to run in the background. It is a real "background application" instead of the "pseudo-background" of iOS and Windows Phone. In addition to consuming power, this mechanism also brings a lot of convenience, such as applications like "Link Bubble". We just need to throw the link address to it, let the webpage load in the background, and focus our precious time and attention on more important things. For example, when you see an article while chatting or browsing Weibo, you can throw it into the bubble and read it after you finish browsing or chatting. By then, the webpage will have been loaded in the background. Although the iPhone is relatively simple and easy to use, it lacks a lot of fun and freedom. But if you want to play with Android devices, you need to put in some effort.
