"Tip: Some android devices offer a built-in "one-handed mode""


#PokemonGO: I don't know if this has been mentioned before but I came across this a few days ago and it has turned out to be quite handy to me.A tiny anecdote: In my country the past weeks have been pretty cold. Not -50C Sibiria cold but we fell down to around -15C the one or other night. So most of the time I kept playing with one hand holding the smartphone and the other warming up in the pocket of my jacket until the other hand gets too cold to properly throw balls. By accident I found out that my device (Samsung Galaxy A5 2016) has a built-in "one-handed mode" that basically shrinks the screen to around 75% of the screen and gives me an arrow to make the tinier screen toggle between either left or right alignment (for left and right handed people, respectively).After some quick searching it seems like my device is by far not the only one supporting such a feature without additional apps to be downloaded. In general newer Galaxy models (S7, my Galaxy A5 2016 and more), the Huawai P8 Lite and other devices running Android 6 (from what I can tell, but I could be wrong) offer this feature one way or the other. The tinier screen makes throwing balls with only the thumb much more comfortable so I can safely warm up my other hand until my hand holding the devices can't properly move any longer.I found a quick tutorial on how to set it up on Samsung Galaxy S7 and it looks same as for my device so probably all Galaxy models offering it have it embedded to the same settings. LinkI am sorry if this has been posted several times already but I couldn't find anything. I still hope it helps a few people (especially ones with rather tiny hands). via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2kM45re
