The operating system Android is famous for a lot of settings. It provides the ability to change literally any aspect of the behavior and appearance of the shell. However, some of these settings are hidden from ordinary users.
Despite the fact that this article is about settings for developers, do not be afraid of this name. Some of the options presented in this section will be useful to ordinary users. By default, they are not displayed in the settings, but it's easy to fix.
Now let's get acquainted with some of the opportunities that we have discovered.
Allow storage to external storage devices
Some developers specifically disable in their applications the ability to install on the SD-card. With the "Allow storage to external storage" switch you can resolve this regardless of the developer's desire.
Please note that the developer can have a good reason for prohibiting installation on an external card. Some programs are tightly tied to a specific location and will not work if they are not installed where the developer planned. Therefore, you should use this function with care.
Enable multi-window mode
Multi-window mode is a feature of the latest versions of operating systems from Google. However, this function requires not only the correct version of Android, but also support in the applications themselves, which, unfortunately, not all developers took care of.
With the option "Resizing in multi-window mode" you can use any application in this mode.
Do not turn off the screen while charging
Usually, smartphones turn off the screen themselves during inactivity to conserve battery power. However, in some cases this function is not needed. For example, if you want to use an old smartphone in the form of a desktop clock or in a car as a navigator.
The option "Do not turn off the screen" will allow the smartphone to stay in the active mode all the time, while it is connected to the charger.
Speed up system animations
This is one of the most useful options, allowing you to achieve significant visual acceleration of the work of Android. The fact is that some manufacturers in the pursuit of wow effects too overload the operating system with beautiful animation.
In this section of options for the developer, you can independently set the time of their display or even disable. As a result, it will seem that the system has just started to fly.
Switch to black and white mode
If your device uses an AMOLED screen, the number of colors displayed is really important to save battery life. To stretch even more on the remaining charge, just activate the monochrome mode. This option is also hidden in the settings for the developer and is called "Imitate anomaly."
