Things you've discovered on Note 8?

[srvctec]

Just found this video below. I wonder if we contact Samsung individually, a few thousand times, if they'd get the hint and put Action Memo back into the N8 soon.

Are you using Samsung Notes? That's why. Action memo is the one with that functionality.

I don't have action memo.

Nobody does unless they install it themselves, and not update Samsung Notes anymore.

You didn't have to save anything first. You just wrote, clicked on the ... , and clicked Link to Action, where you could immediately access all functionality (phone, contacts, message, internet, more.....)

Wow. Interesting. just checked a video (posted below) and its awesome.

I've had it up and running for about six weeks - you just need to remember to not let "Samsung Notes" Update (shut off Auto Update for this App in Play Store) or it will overwrite and wipe out "Action Memo", therefore, wiping out everything you've just done in this video to get Action Memo working again! It's a pain but well worth it... I always loved Action Memo - thought Samsung was crazy for stopping it!

I love that I found a setting to bypass the lockscreen completely. Display > Navigation > Unlock with home button. I just press the home button area, it vibrates and voilá - home screen!

I love that I found Zooper widget pro and the plethora of Zooper widget templates available in Play store

Ok, someone needs to give me a Zooper tutorial. Downloaded the Pro version, since I like playing with how my home screen looks. Can't get it to add weather/location.

Also, I want to be able to tap the clock and have it go to my alarms, and tap the weather and open a weather app. Doesn't seem possible to do both.

But I like how this looks:

The weather is a problem with Zooper as this app has not been updated for a long time. When you open Zooper scroll down to weather provider and do not choose Yahoo, as it does not work. The other two providers do work so you should check to see which is more accurate for your location. I use Yr.no and it is pretty good.
Tap action only works for the entire widget (not portions of it), so you would have to make multiple widgets to get them all to do what you want. Otherwise, you can only have one tap action on the widget.

Why don't you just use the clock I use... Beautiful Widgets. I tap on the clock to get my alarm and the weather to get my favorite weather app...

I agree, I've tried Zooper, KWGT, and a lot of other clock/weather widgets, I always go back to Beautiful Widgets.

I do use BW. Just wanted to see if Zooper was somehow better.

Always go with the app or widget that gets updates.

That's a bummer. I use voice most of the time while taking photos.

Me to just got my Note 8 and realized it doesn't work with Bixby on

What do you mean - Zooper? Z works just fine on my phone & bixby too.

When the power button is pressed, using the LED View Cover, the clock lights up.

All my Sprint phones from HTC to 7 Edge and now the Note 8 have FM radio and I use Next Radio all the time. I have a cable where one end goes into the headphone jack and the other my speaker so I don't have to wear the earbuds. Comes in handy when needing real time live radio to win stuff LOL! Just got my Note 8 last week so I am behind and reading post from Sept. Always said I would never get a note that it was to big and wouldn't use the pen but the extra ram and camera was our choice to get them. Me and my husband love our phones. And I am just now finding out more stuff it does. I too am used to the home button double click but now I just say Bixby open camera. LOL!

Sometime this year Verizon enabled the FM chip in my S6 Edge. Never got a chance to mess with Next radio app yet. Will mess around with it later today.

You click on any of the four types of bait food and wait. When a cat comes by you get a notification. You can view the cats you have and give them names instead of numbers. I played for a while when I first got my V20 after I had to return my Note 7. I had about 40 cats. Started running out of name ideas.

I never knew you could do this how cute? And someone said it worked on the 7 edge wish I had known am a cat lover. I gave it a treat waiting on my 1st one to pop up.
