Samsung Galaxy the Complete Manual 14th Edition

(sharon) #1

Applications Getting started


Smart Remote This versatile app not only transforms your Galaxy
device into a remote control for your TV and set-top box, but it also
sources and recommends shows to watch.


Samsung Music You can play all your tunes from within the Samsung
Music app or by adding its widget to your home screen. You can also
import more tracks quickly and easily.


Clock Use this handy app to set yourself alarms, see what time it is in
other places around the world and get instant access to a stopwatch to
record laps and a timer to assist you in the kitchen.


S Note Whether you’re using your finger or the S Pen, you can jot all
your important notes down for later using the S Note app (or its sibling,
S Memo) and even link them with your S Planner tasks.


S Voice S Voice can be used to find information by asking questions and
also to control your device’s apps and settings. With a voice activation
command to wake up S Voice, you need never touch your device again.


Story Album Import your images from the Gallery app into
customisable photo albums using Story Album. You can apply themes,
add captions and text, and share and print your albums.


S Health This app helps you manage your health as well as lets you set
fitness goals, check your progress and keep track of your overall health.
Create a profile and monitor your diet and exercise.


Video Player Supporting subtitles and a range of file formats, Video
Player is your Samsung Galaxy’s main viewing screen. You can browse
the files on your device, queue videos up and hit play.


Maps Google’s Maps app shows you what’s going on nearby, places
to eat, drink and more. Plus, with turn-by-turn navigation for in-car or
in-pocket setups, you’ll never get lost again.


S Planner S Planner is both a comprehensive calendar, pulling in data
from your Google and Facebook calendars, and an organiser that you
can use to set reminders, manage to-do lists and more.


Group Play This app lets you pair-up multiple devices and share
pictures, documents and music among them in real-time. You can also
download and play multiplayer games through the interface.


Google Drive An incredibly useful tool for backing things up, as well as
