Coolest features you discovered after buying your Note 4

[WeAreAllUnique]

So close.

Goodgle also automatically keeps track of your parking. It is one of your cards when you open google. You may have to set it up as one of the cards but mine works great.

Another cool thing about the Note 4 is that with the S-pen, I can easily use my phone while it is laying on my desk. When I'm at work, this is how I primarily use my phone - from my desk.

Nothing so far. I got this because someone told me it was better and cheaper than the iphone. Well its neither. I had to buy a memory card because the phone ran out of memory so quick. Then I had to but a blue tooth aux cable cause a regular cable doesn't work with it. And the finger print scanner is a joke. And the notifications are nonstop. I'd put it on silent but then I would miss important calls. The call quality is poor. People say they can hardly hear me. And my emails are not loading right. Is it too much to ask for good call quality and email? That's great it has all these nifty gadgets . Woop dee do. I just want to make phone calls and read my email.

Guess you should have went with an iphone. I have HD calling with my note edge. 32gb of internal (22gb usable) storage and a 128g SD card. You can turn off any app notifications you don't need from the application screen in settings, then disable notifications for that particular app and for email you just need to add your email info to the stock email app. If your using active sync or an enterprise server you would need your companies information. Or if it's gmail, simply long in. I really don't get your list of complaints. Could you be more specific about this Bluetooth aux cable? I'd love to help, but really don't know what your really talking about

I'm on Verizon and I see both Download Booster and Car Mode. Not sure if it makes a difference but have you turned on developer mode?

Yep and still not there. I'm a sure AT&T killed it for their "drive mode" app. What a shame

As a recent iPhone convert, I understand it is a bit of a switch. Chris is right, you need to go into the app settings to turn off notifications for that particular app, I've been doing a bit of that. As for call quality, are you on Verizon and using a case? Verizon moved the location of one of the mic holes on the bottom of the phone and it doesn't line up with some cases (some case manufacturers have made the slot for that mic elongated to accommodate the mic location) Every review will tell you that the finger print scanner has nothing on touch-ID and they're right, but touch-ID wasn't a deal breaker by any means for me so it doesn't detract from my Note 4 experience.

blue tooth aux cable? What is this?

It's sounds like you should stick to the iPhone.

Having 3 different remotes in each room, Smart Remote has been amazing.

It sounds like you should just stick with an iPhone. The note 4 is obviously too much for you

LOL...what's obvious is that this person just trolled you. Running it out of memory was first clue they were yanking our chains. The BT aux cable is the clincher.

It's probably Tim Cook.

Love this thread! I'm a recent iPhone convert and I love showing friends and coworkers, who have iPhones, what my Note 4 can do. Yes, I love my Note 4 and I praise it all the time!

 

[rpsilva95]

I switched from the Droid DNA to the note 3 now to the note 4.. I would have to say I have never been happier all the way around. The 4 is one of the best phone out there with all it can do.

I'm really impressed by the how paper and pen-like S-Note and the S-Pen are. I look forward to every time I have an excuse to use it.

 

[PurseCrayons]

I had the Note 3 & upgraded to the Note 4 only 27 amazing days ago! I love everything about this phone! My family calls my phone my boyfriend, hubby started it! Lol

The feature I use the most is the forwarding feature in the stock text message app! If you long press the text or picture you want to send to someone else it will pop up with advanced settings little box & tab forward! It makes it nice that I can send the same thing to multiple people but don't have to send a group text! My wonderful mother doesn't quite understand to not reply to group texts & well let's just say she said some stuff she shouldn't have! Awkward!!

Thanks for all the tips! I've screen shot some that you guys have posted so I can try them later on!

Easiest way to click picture at night

First turn on flashlight then go camera

The pen. I didn't buy the phone for the pen and I really thought it would be worthless. Once I saw on YouTube how to use it capture any part of the screen or a picture and immediately send it to someone or share it or whatever, it changed the way I do things. I would frequently screen cap to post things or send things to people all the time. This changes everything.

When taking a photo with front camera, just shout "shoot" and it will after a 2 sec timer. I didn't had a clue I just tried out after seeing that little mic icon in the lower right and I was shocked. This saves you cramps trying to press the on screen button or the heart sensor when taking selfies.

Have a good day.

Using the magnetic lasso in the image clip of air command you can cut small images from pics and create personalized app icons. View attachment 148534

I am in the process of making my Note 4 self aware.

How do you make it an icon? Thanks in advance.
