Thank you so much, the Developer Options unlock and .5x multiplier is such an awesome tweak. I also loved the idea of adding multiple fingerprints and skipping the tap to unlock with face. I'll definitely be enjoying my 7 a little more now!
Useful tip! If you mainly use one finger for unlocking, register it twice, but the second time get all of the corners of your fingers. That means when you go to unlock it, there is less chance of it not registering! c: Hope this helps 😆
You can bring up the shutdown menu by pressing power+volume up. The assistant works through the lockscreen for some things and it's useful to use the button if you don't want to say "hey google".
Thanks for speaking quickly and totally about the video topic.. Can't stand youtubers that chat about they life and family just trying to make the video longer. You are one of the few I have subscribed to recently.. Well done!
That's a great list. That cured several of my complaints about my new phone. You missed "turn off the stupid Amber alerts that either wake you in the middle of the night with a siren or (when appropriately timed) require you to look at your phone while you're driving."
I've watched several of these now and this one is definitely the most useful. Most are just an insult to everyone's intelligence. Thanks for making this!
Thanks, I’m buying the 7 Pro tomorrow for the dictation accuracy and the camera as well as the larger size is right for me. This video will get me off to a good start!
the double tap flashlight is amazing. yes it does not work when screen is blank, but it works when you wake the phone with one tap (still locked) , so it still amazing :)
These are the exact things I do with new phones with the exception of DND which I don't use that often. For the pixel I really recommend people to configure bedtime mode. Also, on my pixel 7, reducing animation time to half actually doesn't look that good. for the first time I actually like the animations. They are just well done. Reducing them to 0.5 makes it so fast that animations are just rushing through. Doesn't feel the same.
I would like an 0.75 or something.. 0.5 for me the 'fast' animation is just to twitchy and mess up the ui experience more than 1.0 speed, but 1.0 is a bit slow for my taste.😀 I really dont get why there is x10 option.(try it) Who in the world, likes to waste to 4 or 5 seconds of animation every time on every app on every ui swipe....
@@LooNeYlv Something to remember. While people use these options to speed animations up for general use. These are at the end of the day still dev options so thats why x10, etc exist.
Recently I bought Pixel 7 and I love it. But I don't see screen resolution option under Display settings to change screen resolution. And Thank you for uploding the video 😀.
Just got my Pixel 7 Pro couple days ago. Thank you so much for this video, I have learned so many hidden features that are really useful for my daily use
Very first thing you should do on any new phone is set your emergency contacts. Settings > Safety and Emergency. Imagine your loved one collapses in a supermarket and gets rushed to hospital. Emergency staff have no way to contact you if they didn’t configure this.
Thank you for your very informative video. My P5a bricked after latest update and traded it in for a 7. Most of these i do already . I also like to install Nova Launcher to
4:55 People who dont use screen protectors are using phone on a yearly(or less) basis. People who are using a phone for 2, 3 or 4+ years, screen protector is a must have, so the phones screen would survive this longevity. The fancy gorilla glass still only works in ads or synthetic lab tests, in real world simple and innocent money coin or a random paper clip in the same pocket will leave it's mark and scratch the screen. 😁
I used my last phone for more than 3 years. Not a single day with a screen protector. All it really suffered were some minor micro scratches that you'd have to look for under direct light. It's not a matter of must, it's a matter of how one treats their phone. Some are really careful at all times, other just treat it like a TV remote.
Thank you!!! This is worth it for the knowledge of the screen protector mode itself. That's made it so easy for me to open my phone. I've been having a very difficult time with my screen protector and finger pint open.
Just received my Pixel 7 Pro during the last 5 mins, to replace my Huawei P20 that I have had for 5 years,so naturally I am rather nervous on setting up and transferring all my photos,contacts etc. I have been Y.T videos on how to set up and transfer,wish me luck out there from a 71 year old😂.
One other thing I do with DND is set the duration to 2 hours so when I set it in Quick Settings it'll automatically turn off after that time. Two hours is optimum for most things I do and it won't interfere with Night Time mode or any other schedule.
1 step ..install a custom rom for modded app support........they deactivated the support for 32 bits aps.....not eliminated....stag os is tested by me and runs good
Got the 7 for $20 with the Black Friday deal. This is an exceptional phone for the price. If you only have $600 and are an android users this phone is a no brainer.
do you have a video about customising the google pixel 7 pro and the customisation settings that a new google pixel user may be confused by? very useful video thank you
Great video and really helpful. Maybe advice for heavy phones! This phone is really heavy... My 3 day old fell off the magnetic dashboard accessory yesterday... Fell between the crack of the seat and console... Hit a seat rail and screen cracked... With scream saver... Super drag... But great phone and video!!!
Very helpful, but one suggestion, could you slow down a bit so it would be easier to set my phone while following your movements? I made most of the changes to my 7 model. The only one not available on the standard 7 was being able to change the resolution as it was not listed on that screen.
I like to use the accessible "quick menu" but I don't like the accessible shortcut that attached to the side of the screen. It there away to create a different shortcut or other means to open the accessible menu. The accessible menu has options to access the power choices, sound choices, brightness, lock screen, etc.
Just remove animations in the google pixel menu. You don't need to add developer mode. Opens up your phone to more issues. Just use the built in option.
If you have any issues with your usb port and out of warranty your phone is unrepairable. I have a pixel six and love it. The port is bad and i can only wireless charge. The port is attached to the motherboard and Google won't sell them . I'm semi disabled and have very limited income. I'm basically screwed. The pixel 7 and 8 is built the same way. Again love using the phone however it's a very poor design. I understand phone can break, at least make them repairable. A vast amount of other phones have a charging port that is on its own board and therefore repairable. Google won't sell me another motherboard so now I'm doing my best to warn others about this pathetic design.
I’m looking for a USB-C splitter for my Pixel 7 Pro that can connect to its USB-C port. The splitter should have two femmale USB-C ports: one for connecting USB-C Apple EarPods to make phone calls, and the other for charging the phone and supporting data transfer. This data transfer should enable USB debugging mode, allowing me to use the mirroring application, scrcpy. I’ve noticed that most products on Amazonn only support data transfer on the port that supports audio, but not on the charging port. Can you recommend a product that meets these requirements?
Very useful. How did you make to remove the hour and meteo widget on the top left of the screen ? And how to put the google bar in black like you ? Thanks.
Thanks for the useful info. Is there a way to turn on the hangup sound when using Bluetooth headphones? If a call drops I don't know and end up talking to myself.
Thanks Alex for this useful video. Mine's coming soon & I am looking to shift away from Nova to the stock Pixel launcher. Couple of questions: 1) will the fingerprint sensor work better if you register your same finger multiple times? 2) can you install apps which give you more options for the AOD or is that blocked? I find the white AOD quite bland.
I'm glad you brought that up. I always add my main finger twice so that there is more data for the phone to work with. Keep in mind that while this will reduce the amount of errors reading your finger, it won't actually make the sensor any faster, but I still think it's worth adding the same finger twice. As far as AOD, I don't typically use any, but there are a few apps on the app store you can check out like Always On: Edge Music Lighting (it has an AOD option within the app)
Pixel 7 Multiply finger prints.. I have added prints for WHEN i have washed my hands as it wont recognize me. NOT the best fingerprint reader.. The old on from my pixel 2XL are ALOT better.
@@Perra1901 I am not having any issues with it, washed hands or not. I was expecting it to be worse, since I've read comments like yours on it. I also have a plastic screen protector on it and don't even need the augmented sensibility. Go figure...
Listening to the stuff they tell you we'll mess your phone up like saying you don't need internet storage change it to 2 GB What they don't tell you though is what it does now when you get on the internet you have to repeat your password in for Walmart for nike Where you was logged in to whatever website you go into going to the developer options it voids your warranty on the phone it's over with you cannot send that phone back if something happens to it if you have a 1 year warranty are 2 year warranty developer options it voids the warranty first of all the app opens app fast it will have your phone going so fast you don't know what's going on with it Don't listen to load of this bullshit
this video was amazing but actually i still have problem with camera's clarity! it's not satisfying for me at all! does it have any hidden setting or there's no hope and all the "pixel 7pro is better than anything "is lie?
I bought a pixel 7 two weeks ago. There was nothing new on your video but you covered every important aspect. To be honest with you, I set up my new phones exactly the way you showed. That's interesting
Thanks for the video. I'm getting a two tone beep sound whenever I move my phone while watching a video or on a call. It's very annoying. It's not a notification. Its driving me crazy!!!
I'm still on the pixel 6 but the response speed thing is something that's been bugging me. I'm so glad I saw that. I also turned off the Google Assistant I never use it and it bugs me if I ever try to use that button for power. Thanks for the tips.
To be frank, all these settings and features are common to almost every android mobile. Naming the video Pixel 7 & 7 Pro does not make any sense here and gives a kind of misleading feel. No offense. peace.
Hey ..I recently bought pixel 7 and noticed that my screen is yellowish and warm ..also the color on video is washed out ..not so good ... anyone experiencing the same ..I have turned of night light as well
I returned my Unlocked New Pixel 7 Pro today because the Straight Talk Sim will not work with the Pixel 7 Pro. Looked like a great phone but there are 3 carriers it currently will not work with.
