Samsung Galaxy A55 Tips & Tricks | YOU HAVE TO KNOW !!!

00:00:00 even though the a55 isn't the s24 or Ultra I've got a ton of tips and tricks that make it feel like both these bad boys like check this out okay so we all know about the Galaxy AI that the s24 comes with but even though the a55 doesn't have that AI you can just download your own AI in the Play Store like this crazy powerful chat GPT and yes everyone knows about chat GPT but not everyone knows about this really sick trick you can do with it so to do this trick you'll have to have started a few Chats on chat GPT first

00:00:36 and once that's done then head into the Quick Settings menu and select the pencil icon to edit it because now if you swipe all the way to the left you will see this chat GPT icon so you can just tap it or drop and drag it into place and now check this out you can just swipe down on the Quick Settings panel and tap on the chpt icon to ask at pretty much anything like is the Galaxy a55 a nice phone yeah galaxy a55 has been described as feeling great in hand that's pretty sweet you can literally have full-blown conversations with it

00:01:08 and talk to it as though it's a real person that basically knows everything and to kick it up another notch on your a55 if you head into the widget section you can even add a chat gbt widget to your home screen just in case you needed any information and wanted to text with it or if you have chat GPT 4 you can even upload an image and ask it about that so even though this doesn't have Galaxy AI you can still get some cool AI for it and this isn't even the craziest thing later on I'll show you an AI hack

00:01:37 that makes the a55 even more like the s24 but for now let's move on to some hidden customization so before I show you any customization tricks let's make the a55 screen just as smooth as the s24 and to do this you'll just have to go into your settings then display settings and under motion smoothness make sure you CH it from standard to Adaptive this basically makes the screen buttery smooth to use and just so much more pleasant to look at but now that that's out the way for the first customization trick and this

00:02:11 one is just so cool inside your phone settings you'll find Co backgrounds where you can then select this background option that'll take you straight into your gallery and now you can choose any image or video like this animated wallpaper as your background so now whenever someone calls you this animated cool screen background will play which just gives you A5 five that extra bit of Personality or as mentioned you can just use a static image if that's your thing and if you're wondering where you can get these slick

00:02:38 animated wallpapers from then check out my website hworld docomomo application if you select an alarm and scroll down you can even set an alarm background for any of your alarms just by choosing an image or custom background from your gallery this again works with animated wallpapers and of course you can pick from any style You' like just to make your alarms a bit more fun and less Bland so believe it or not the a55 has a great camera system that's actually almost as good as the s24 and it's got

00:03:14 three really cool features that everyone should know about the first feature and this one's actually quite hidden is if you have any photo that you've taken through a window and have these really irritating Reflections well if you swipe up on the photo these options appear where you can select arrays Reflections and how this works is your a55 photo AI will scan your image and remove any Reflections like magic but there's even more this photo AI can do like you can also object erase so if you tap on

00:03:44 anything in your photo and then click on erase the AI will do its crazy magic and totally remove what you selected from the picture this works on pretty much any image and not just photos so it's a nice quick way to remove things without having to use Photoshop then for the third feature if you're like me and love taking a ton of portrait photos inside the gallery once you've selected your portrait photo if you swipe up you'll find this background effect button and straight away you might not notice

00:04:11 anything new because you can change the background effect or move through different filters but you may have noticed this little icon and if you tap on it you can actually move this little dot around to change the direction of the light shining on you and you can even change how bright it is just absolutely insane because a $1,000 iPhone phone can't even do this but let's dig in even deeper with two super hidden tricks that I guarantee you didn't know so for the first Super hidden trick this one's actually got to do with the

00:04:44 Wi-Fi so if you swipe down on the Quick Settings panel and tap and hold on the Wi-Fi to open up its settings then tap on these three little dots you might notice this option intelligent Wi-Fi and right at the bottom of those settings you'll see intelligent Wi-Fi again and if you tap on it a few times the secret connectivity Labs option will open up and in here you'll find a ton of information about the Wi-Fi you're currently connected to like how long you've been connected to it and also how much internet you've used there's even a

00:05:14 home Wi-Fi inspection tool where you can measure out the strength of the Wi-Fi you're currently connected to and how secure it is and for the second Super hidden trick inside your settings and device care you'll find something called Auto optimization where I suggest you turn on auto restart to restart when needed because basically what this does is it guarantees that your a55 will keep running smoothly by restarting itself whenever it finds any issues so it kind of just handles any problems all on its

00:05:45 own without having to bug you that's pretty sick okay now let me show you a few new things you can do on the a55 lock screen you'll now notice there's two new buttons in the customization section and I really really like this new effects option where you can swipe to add different effects to your wallpaper like Grays scale a gray background and my personal favorite a colored background where you can change the color there's a couple more other options if you keep swiping like this Ink Effect and some

00:06:14 other painting Styles but to make it even more aesthetic you can select this Frame option where you can choose from some really cool different frame styles and again if you tap on the color tab you can then go ahead and select a pre-made color or even select your own to get that perfect look but what I especially love is you can even resize the subject to make it pop out the frame even more and this just looks so cool you can now also finally change to custom clock fonts so you just click on these three little dots right over here

00:06:44 and then tap on download fonts this will take you into the Galaxy store where you can choose from a ton of different free or paid for fonts and honestly you can get some really crazy fun unique looking lock screen designs this way so I definitely suggest you go and check out these customization features okay now have you ever thought about how you can Auto delete photos from other people's phones well check this out on your a55 when you open up the gallery and choose to share an image with someone using Quick Share in here

00:07:18 you can tap on these three little dots and turn on private sharing and once you've done that you can then set an expiry time like let's say for 1 hour now the other person will just need to make sure sure their quick sharing is also turned on as well and as soon as that happens you'll notice you can select their phone and send them the picture they'll then receive the picture you just sent them but what's so neat about this is that the picture doesn't actually get saved inside the gallery instead it gets saved inside this

00:07:47 private sharing history folder and when they open it up not only will it have this watermark on it for extra security but they can't even take a screenshot of it either so it's super safe and after the time you set expires it automatically gets deleted from the other person's phone which is such a sweet trick and by the way you know how the s24 has the circle to search feature well here's a hack on how to get the same thing on the a55 so this is such a useful trick on the s24 and there are three steps to get

00:08:21 it to work on the a55 firstly inside the Play Store make sure to download Google lens which is literally what Circle to search uses then secondly inside your settings and advanced features go into side button and change the double press to open app and set it to open up Google Lens now check this out let's say you're busy browsing something on the Internet or YouTube for example well if you see something you like just take a screenshot then double press the side button to open lens and then select the

00:08:51 screenshot you just took and the BAM it'll search it on Google just like how it does with circle to search and you can even take a picture picture bam just double click the side button select the pick you just took and check it out there's your results now that is cool and if you worried about losing the double tap to open the camera then don't cuz I got something even better so now on to my favorite quick tips starting off with widgets specifically this brand new camera widget just select it and add it to your

00:09:28 home screen and once you've done that you can then adjust its settings and choose what camera mode you'd like it to start on like portrait for example and also what image you'd like as the widget background then just click save and now you'll get this widget on your home screen that once you press it will open the camera straight to that mode from your home screen which basically makes the side button shortcuts unnecessary and a little trick I personally like to do with this widget is to have a

00:09:56 dedicated homepage to all the camera modes so I can just quickly open them up straight from the home screen and snap some pcks and while we're talking about widgets this is something I get asked about all the time and all it actually is is Samsung's very own Gallery widgets once you've added it to your home screen if you tap and hold down in it and select settings you can actually choose what images you want to display you can of course choose any images in your gallery or what I personally like to do

00:10:23 is have some inspirational quotes like these ones you can also get from haes world.com and for the last question quick tip I know a lot of you guys will like this one under Advanced features in screenshots and Screen recordings turn on hide status and navigation bar because now whenever you take a screenshot the top notification bar will automatically get cropped out which really does make a big difference so with all those tips and tricks the a55 isn't actually that far behind the s24 range and it is an amazing phone so make

00:10:53 sure you subscribe for even more tips and tricks and I'll see you guys in the next one toodles yeah
