The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 received its biggest upgrade ever with its brand new folder-shaped cover display that spans a massive 3.4 inches. The new cover display, which is being called the ‘Flex Window’ by the company, can now fit in much more information and packs more entertainment than any of its predecessors. But if you are still confused about what you can do with it, and want to unlock all of its potential, then you need to check our list of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 tricks. Let us take a look.
Your Galaxy Z Flip 5 cover display does not work like normal smartphone displays. It has added functionalities, and to access them, you need to know all the gestures and commands. So here is a basic rundown:
Since widgets are the main attraction point of Galaxy Z Flip 5, you should know how to make the most out of it. You can add more widgets to your display simply by long-pressing the wallpaper on the cover display and then swiping left. Alternatively, you can open the main display and head to settings. Then, go to cover display and choose widgets.
While you can reply to messages in WhatsApp, play music through Spotify, and call a number, there is a lot more you can get done without ever opening your phone. You can give multiple other apps access to your cover display with a simple step. Go to settings in the main display, then go to Labs. There you will see an option for ‘Aps allowed on cover screen’. Turn it on.
Here you can see all the apps that you can use directly from the cover display. Simply go back to the cover display and you should be able to access these apps.
If you find that only a very limited number of apps are accessible through the cover display, you can use another trick to use just about any app there. Simply download the Good Lock app from the Galaxy Store. Once installed, select Life Up from the bottom of the navigation bar. Look for the Multistar module and install it.
After that, open the module and tap ‘I love Galaxy Foldable’, and select Launcher Widget. And that’s it. Now you are ready to add any app icons to the widget and start using them from the cover display.
Just double-press the fingerprint sensor on the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and it will open the Camera app. And that’s it. You can click a picture of yourself without needing to rely on the front camera. The higher-quality rear cameras and the viewfinder display will ensure you always get the perfect selfie.
