The Mobile Phone Icon Hides 4 Practical Functions, And Call Recordings Are Automatically Saved
Many people only use the phone icon on their mobile phones to dial numbers or flip through their contacts every day.
To be honest, this is a waste of its real ability.
There is something, it is the phone icon that is placed on the desktop every day. In fact, it hides four extremely useful functions. However, many people have not discovered it even if they have been using their mobile phones for several years.
Today I will explain it to you one by one. The operation is very simple, just follow it step by step.
1. Automatic call recording, which can come in handy at critical moments
Open the phone icon on the desktop of your mobile phone. After entering, look at the upper right corner. It is usually three small dots. On some phones, it may be four dots or other symbols. Just click to enter.
Then find set up option, click to enter.
Go to the settings page, scroll down, and around the third row, you can see an option called "Automatic call recording."
After clicking in, turn on the switch at the back. The default recording object is "all calls".
After setting this up, every incoming call will be automatically recorded.
The recording file will be saved in the voice recorder that comes with the phone, or in the file management, and you can see it by finding the folder named "Call Recording".
This function is extremely practical for friends who are engaged in sales. It is quite useful for those who are conducting business negotiations. It is very convenient for those who need to keep call credentials. Once there is a dispute or a situation that requires evidence collection, the recording will become the most direct evidence.
2. Speed dial, help the elderly at home to set it up
It’s still the same process just now, click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the phone icon, and then enter the settings page.
Swipe down the screen to find the "Speed Dial" option and click on it.
You will see that numbers 2 to 9 can be used to add contacts.
For example, add your daughter's mobile phone number to the number 2, and add your son's phone number to the number 3.
After completing the setting, when the elderly wants to make a call, he only needs to press and hold the number 2 or the number 3 in the dialing interface, and the call can be dialed directly without having to search for a long time in the address book.
Especially for some elders who have poor eyesight, this function can really solve big problems.
Each number can only be bound to one contact, just choose the ones you contact most often.
3. Intelligent interception makes harassing calls and spam messages disappear completely
Many people receive various sales calls and spam text messages every day, which is extremely annoying.
In fact, the phone icon that comes with your phone has an interception function.
Also click on the three dots in the upper right corner and find " harassment interception "Click in."
Under the displayed interface, there is an option called "Interception Rules". After clicking this option, select "Phone Interception Rules".
Turn on all the switches inside one by one, and high-risk calls such as harassing calls, scam calls, sales calls, and intermediary calls will no longer be able to come in.
You need to pay special attention here. There is a switch called "Intercept all incoming calls". You must not turn it on. Otherwise, even calls for express delivery and takeaways will not be able to come in. Calls from family members will also not be able to come in.
After completing the call interception settings, return to the previous interface, then click to enter "SMS Interception Rules" and turn on all the switches.
After this is implemented, those messy and unorganized junk text messages, deceptive scam text messages, and advertising and sales text messages with the purpose of promoting sales will no longer appear in the inbox.
Many elderly people have received unfamiliar text messages, but they don't know whether they are true or false. They are easily deceived. Help turn on these two interception functions, and your mobile phone will immediately become much cleaner.
4. Use the dial key to check the serial number, so you don’t have to worry about being cheated when buying a new mobile phone.
The last feature is especially useful when buying a new mobile phone.
Open the dialing keyboard and type "*#06#". A string of numbers will pop up on the screen. This is the IMEI code of the phone, which is equivalent to the phone's ID number.
Then, take out the original packaging box of the mobile phone, look for the label affixed to the box, and compare the IMEI code on it.
If the two codes show exactly the same status, it means that the mobile phone is original and genuine; if the numbers are not the same, then the mobile phone is most likely to be a refurbished machine or a machine of unknown origin.
It is also recommended to use this method to check when buying a second-hand mobile phone, so that you can feel more confident.
In addition, some mobile phones may have two IMEI codes, and only one of them can match the packaging box.
The above four functions can be used in daily life. The operation is not complicated. It takes two or three minutes to set it up, which can save a lot of things in the future.
At critical moments, call recording can help you produce evidence, speed dialing can make calls more convenient for the elderly, smart interception will block harassing calls and spam text messages, and QR code checking can prevent the purchase of refurbished phones.
Friends who haven't set it up yet can take out their mobile phones and follow the steps to give it a try.
