There is no denying that the HTC One M8 is the best smartphone ever produced to date. The device is crafted with beauty, luxury and productivity in mind which puts it ahead of its competitors.
While the One M8 still runs on the Android KitKat OS, many new users are still not able to make full use of what the device has got to offer. There are many great things on the One M8 that users are not aware of and here are 5 of them.
1. Lock Screen Shortcuts
Activating the lock screen shortcuts will make the dock icons accessible even when the device is locked. Users can customize the accessible apps by simply changing the shortcuts on the main dock.
2. Swipe to Wake the One M8
Instead of the usual swipe to unlock, users can do more when the smartphone is asleep. Swipe from right to left to open up Blink Feed. Swipe left to right to unlock the device. Swipe down to up to open up the last used app. Swipe from top to bottom and it opens up the dialler.
3. IR Blaster
Controlling the television gets simpler with the One M8. Instead of tweaking every setting, things have been simplified with the all new setup guide.
4. App Grid
Sometimes, the app drawer can be too small or too big for the users’ liking. Change the app grid size by tapping on the 3-dots on the top right of the screen when in the app drawer.
5. Battery Percentage
The battery symbol is helpful but users would prefer to see the digits of their battery level. Turn it on by going to Settings>Power>Show Battery Level.
