I never knew these functions on my phone

One of Samsung Galaxy’s best-kept secrets is the Secure Folder,

a hidden space to store private photos, files, and apps. This feature

adds an extra layer of security to sensitive information by requiring a PIN,

password, or biometric login. “It’s like having a mini safe on your phone,” explains Galaxy user Sarah Lee.

Smartphones are packed with features that make life easier, but many of these remain

hidden beneath the surface, often unnoticed by most users. Whether you own an iPhone,

an Android, or a Samsung Galaxy device, your phone likely has some tricks up its

sleeve that you haven’t discovered yet. Here are 10 hidden functions on your phone you didn’t know existed.

For iPhone users, one of the most overlooked features is the “Back Tap” functionality.

With this, you can set up shortcuts to specific tasks simply by tapping the back of your

phone. “It’s incredibly useful for things like activating the flashlight or taking

a screenshot,” says iOS expert John Doe. To activate this feature, go to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Back Tap and choose your preferred actions.

Android users often miss out on the hidden function, Split Screen feature, which is

perfect for multitasking. This function allows you to run two apps simultaneously.

Just swipe up to open the app drawer, select an app, and then choose the “Split Screen”

option from the menu. “Not all apps support it, but for the ones that do, it’s a real game changer,” notes Android developer Jane Smith.
