Your Samsung phone has a hidden Settings shortcut menu — here’s how to enable it
A one-time setup that saves you time every day.
Navigating the Settings app on your Samsung Galaxy phone can be a tiresome task. Although you can utilize the built-in search function to locate a particular setting directly, it may not always be feasible to use the right keyword. Samsung Galaxy users can enhance their experience by creating shortcuts for their most frequently used settings within the Settings app, streamlining access and saving time.
To set up these shortcuts on your Samsung phone, you must first install the Good Lock module from the Galaxy Store. This module allows you to create shortcuts for your preferred settings. After downloading and installing the Good Lock app, navigate to the Plugins tab, select the Life up tab, and locate RegiStar. Download and install it.
Once installed, open the RegiStar module and enable the option to create a shortcut for settings. After enabling this option, you can create shortcuts for any setting within the Settings app.
Creating a shortcut for a setting results in an app-like icon on your phone's home screen, which you can access whenever needed. You can create shortcuts for various settings according to your usage habits and preferences. Organizing these shortcuts into a dedicated folder on your home screen helps maintain a clutter-free interface while ensuring easy access to your preferred settings.
While the feature of creating shortcuts for frequently used settings is beneficial, it's essential to note that not all settings pages support this functionality. For instance, creating a direct shortcut to the Connectivity labs page is not possible. Instead, you must set up a shortcut for the preceding page, Intelligent Wi-Fi, and then select Connectivity labs from the submenu.
However, creating a shortcut to the exact page, Connectivity labs, can be advantageous as it directs you straight to the desired setting without the need for manual navigation.
Despite this limitation, settings shortcuts can significantly reduce the number of taps required to access your preferred settings, saving you valuable time every day. If you haven't already incorporated these shortcuts into your Galaxy phone usage, it's highly recommended that you do.
