Do you have a setting to turn it on and off? If so, would you tell me the path to that setting? On mine, under Advanced Features, it gives me an option to for Quick Launch Camera, but only by way of the power button.

I am talking about the power button.

If this is an old feature, then I've missed it all these years. But, I just discovered that in the stock Messages app, you can pinch the screen to zoom the text size larger or smaller.

Ah, yeah, that works for me. But the discussion is about getting it to work by double pressing the home button, as demonstrated in a video a few posts up. Does not seem to be an option for Verizon phones, at least.

Has any Verizon users using Verizon messages+ get live messages to work?

Yes, it works on my Verizon Note 8 with Messages+. I use the Samsung keyboard. If you long press the key to the left of the spacebar (on mine, that's the microphone), you can select Live Messages from the popup selections. I've successfully sent a couple of live messages, one of them to my daughter on vacation in Iceland, without error. My daughter and wife both have iPhones, and they both have successfully received live messages from me.

I tried that the other day and it didn't work, but for some reason it just worked. I don't get it haha

App pairing: create an app pair with 'my files' as both apps. Then, using the pen, you can drag and drop files (for instance, from device memory to SD card). This will come in very handy.

I couldn't do both as an instance of the same app. How did you do that?

I just discovered that the FM radio chip in my Verizon Note 8 is enabled. I downloaded an app called NextRadio and it works! It's not streaming, it's actually over-the-air. It uses the headphone cord as the antenna. I've been wondering when they were going to start enabling those FM radio chips. Evidently, Samsung has been enabling them starting with the S8s, from what I read.
