Nexus 6 Tips and Tricks: Off Handset Notifications, Battery Life Hacks, and More!

By

Following its launch November last year, Nexus 6 is said to be holding more secrets that other users have not yet explored. There will still be tricks to be unlocked and options which must not be taken. Most users have been using their Nexus 6 wrong. Find out if you are one of them.

1. Being notified with your phone's status is one of the many features of Nexus 6. Even if your handset's screen is off, you are still being updated through its notifications. However, are all those notifications necessary? Some of them might not even be worth the alarm. So how do you fix this problem? Simple. Go to the Settings and select the Sound and Notifications. You will see there the apps that you could either block or set as an important notification.

2. Is your Nexus 6 phone battery easily drained? Try checking if your phone is on vibrate mode. Vibrate mode usually consumes a large amount of battery power. However, there is no direct option to disable the vibrate mode. The closest solution to this problem is to select NONE for the interruptions in the volume setting. Or you could download an app which would block sounds without notification interruptions.

3. Family and friends borrowing phones are sometimes a danger for the users' privacy but users end up lending me for humane reasons. Yet there is an option to protect your privacy. You can now set multiple accounts in one phone. You could create a guest account for your friends and family which you could alter as to what applications or services you would want to make available for them. You could also make an account for children and place all your games there.

So check your Nexus 6 phone right now if you are using your handset properly.
