Make Your S9 Display Apps appear in Full Screen Mode<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Samsung Galaxy S9 is taller than most mobile phones are the market, with the 18.5:9 display it allows you to get the best out of your display. Most popular apps come optimised, but some will require a few changes to implement this. To make the changes go to settings, then into display, then into full screen apps. Here you will see which apps are already optimised and which can be changed to full screen. Samsung do tell you if any app wont work quite as well.<\/p>\n

Turn on the Samsung Galaxy S9\u2019s Video Enhancer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Samsung have touted the S9 as one of the best video phones in the market. Behind the scenes there is the ability to boost videos by using the video enhancer. This can be used in conjunction with streaming movies from Amazon Prime, Netflix and Google movies. To turn the S9\u2019s video enhancer on go to settings, then into advanced features then into video enhancer. Here you can turn this video boosting feature on and off at will.<\/p>\n

Changing the Galaxy S9\u2019s Resolution<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Another qualified boast from Samsung is the ability to watch Quad HD+ when viewing your home movies or streaming video. However, it doesn\u2019t come setup with Quad HD+\u00a0turned on. The default setting when you buy the S9 is set to\u00a0Full HD+. In comparison to most phones this would be enough but if your phone can handle Quad HD+ then its worth turning it on. Go into settings, then into screen resolution, here you make your changes. One thing to note. The higher the resolution the quicker your battery will drain.<\/p>\n

Change the Galaxy S9 to Night Mode<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Its long been highlighted that scrolling through your mobile phone in bed can clause sleep issues. Samsung have developed their night mode (blue light filter) to reduce the amount of Blue light when viewing your S9 display. To change this, go to settings, then into display and finally into blue light filter. Here you can change the strength of the blue light helping you get a better night\u2019s sleep.<\/p>\n

Personalise your S9\u2019s display colours<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This isn\u2019t just a handy tip for people wanting to personalise their display, its also good for people who want to view their movies or photos in cooler or warmer colours. To change this, go into settings, then into screen mode and then you have the option to tweak the colours. The S9\u2019s default setting is adaptive display. You can change the base reds, blues and greens but this can often leave you with an unclear picture. There are also additional options to change the preferences to cinema or photo.<\/p>\n

Turn on your Samsung Galaxy S9\u2019s one handed mode<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The S9 is one of the tallest phones on the market and can be troublesome to use with one hand, don\u2019t panic, Samsung have got you covered with their one hand mode feature. To set this up go to settings, then to advanced settings, then into one handed mode and select button. Once setup you must hit the home button three times and the display will shrink to one handed mode.<\/p>\n
