I like the phone

[@slsk64]

I was seriously considering returning this phone because some display options that are usually found in Display aren't there. Thank you for including how to change the home screen layout. Now I know to check the Motorola app for some display options. I also learned some cool gestures from this video. I wasted time watching other videos that failed to deliver info I needed. This was the best presentation I've seen.

​@@kaylafield2503sure it does! This video came up because I was searching for a solution to a problem.

[@heywoodjablome2018]

I just purchased this phone off Amazon unlocked. I specifically got this version because I read that they got worse as years went on camera wise. So far I love it. Coming from a galaxy s9+ this isn't much of a downgrade and nowhere near the pricetag of Samsung.

[@Michael-st3wg]

Has a great battery life also 👍

[@user-nu1hy9rj9s]

Love this phone, another tip is you can go into the keyboard settings and adjust the size of the keyboard as well as a ton of other useful features

[@St_Clinton]

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!!... So many GREAT Tips. You showed ones which I will be using, and helped me with things that I was wondering about.

[@danjones3402]

I wasn't going to get this first because of the color but it actually looks great in person . Don't think I've seen another phone with the same color and the battery life on it is great.

[@DivergentDroid]

Sucks though that you have to take the phone to a repair shop to change the battery as it's non removable. Now if you are the type of person that can swap pc parts/build a pc then you could probably do it yourself.

[@danjones3402]

@@DivergentDroid Yes true, but the days of removable batteries are almost obsolete. Just have to roll the dice and see if you get one that last 2-3 years..

[@DivergentDroid]

@@danjones3402 Don't buy into that cooperate idea that removable batteries are a thing of the past. They are just trying to push it so they can make tons more money selling us phones we don't need to buy yet because only the battery died. If we all take a stand and stop buying such devices and demand our removable batteries, the corrupt industry will cave and give us what we want or they will go broke.

[@borkabrak]

Yeah, I got it just because it was one of the better options available to me at the time. I didn't care a damn thing about the stylus. But having used it a little while, I'm growing really fond of that little thing. It really gives me an almost effortless precision upgrade, which makes a bigger difference than I would have anticipated in my enjoyment of using the phone. And you're right about the battery life. This turns out to be a great little phone that I'm really glad I got.

Thank you so much, for showing how to turn off home screen gestures. Gestures was giving me a headache. Having the buttons back is great 👍.

[@lisapuckett1894]

Why does the Moto g like and send button stay on the home screen so long

[@JerzeyQueen]

The dual screen is easier if you just swipe your finger right to left on the main screen. Your current app will be top and u can pick any app after.

[@donotneed2250]

Why not just put the Settings icon on the home screen so you don't have to do all that swiping down? I always put mine in the dock at the bottom.

[@ianbranham4552]

To really use split screen you need to enable developer options and click the force all apps to split screen because not all apps work if that switch is not on

[@Bu11d0gz]

Thank you so much showing me how to switch the gesture option. That was my only gripe switching from my Samsung. I honestly was going to give phone to my daughter and go back to my Samsung. I absolutely LOVE this new Moto phone because it's way faster and works better on my schools crappy wifi. Some phones don't connect good too it and us teachers have griped for years. So again, thank you so much for showing me that and the split screen. Because I do watch Hulu and Amazon prime on small screen while playing my pixel art app. This helps me keep the KZbin music playing now.

[@EatCrafty]

This video was very helpful. I got a question about the stylus function. Is there any way to turn on full animation when you use the stylus. In other words on my Note 10 when you draw on a FB story it actually shows the drawing process and not just the finished product. Is this a limitation with MOTO Stylus or is it a feature that needs to be turned on?

[@El_Cartomante]

Hello greetings, I changed from ios to android and this phone does not have a gallery, or at least I cannot find it, there is only the google photos function to see the photos?

[@doh2934]

Hi this was very helpful. I have 2 questions. 1-I just bought my phone. the time is in the upper right corner. How do I get it into the middle like yours is. I have tried several things and haven't figured it out. 2- where does the screen shot go when you save it? into photos?

[@donotneed2250]

The widget for the time can be put wherever you can fit. Just hold down with finger and move it. It can also be resized. Screenshots are put into a folder called "Screenshots" in the DCIM folder. If you use a Micro SD Card as I do you can tell it to save to the card. Don't ne afraid to deep dive into the Settings and Permissions and see what's what.👍🏼

I aquired a new Samsung the first of the year and now it needs a new screen. I got frustrated with it and it took flight into a desk separating itself from the case. It only flew about 4 feet.

[@your_average_joe5781]

I have the 2021 version of this phone and I like it for the most part, but there is something important that people need to know before getting it. The volume for the ringer and the volume for text notifications are locked together! If you raise the volume so you know someone is texting you, it also raises the ringer volume and will make you jump out of your skin. So I lowered the ringer volume and now I can hardly hear my text notification. 😥

[@QueenNeferTT4Eva]

There's a setting for all of the volume controls when you push the volume key. You adjust them separately

[@ianbranham4552]

You can change that by enabling developer options and turning off that setting where volume controls are for each app separately

[@DivergentDroid]

@@nathaliecarrillo2782 The phone itself is Great aside from them pushing Google apps galore in your face. (They like to steal a lot of data) 5G is Way over rated because indoors you don't get a great signal due to the brick walls. It's best to keep the phone set to use the best signal it finds out of 3G 4G and 5G. You can set it to 5G only to test the speeds. Outside I have gotten Very Fast 292 mbps download speed but terrible upload speed of around 2.90 mbps. Live streaming may not be consistent. I have gotten upload speeds of 7.80 (which is good for upload) but it's hit and miss. However if you Need to download large files and you are outside you can get super fast speeds to do it. With 128 gb of storage space, I use it to download PC games and movies that I then transfer to my pc. Otherwise just keep it on the setting to use all the speeds and your experience may be smoother depending on what you need. Watching videos and general surfing the web should not be a problem. Battery is very good and can easily last 2 days. I find the stylus is o.k. for writing notes if you make the line thinner. I don't draw. The speaker is Mono so no stereo unless you use headphones or Bluetooth stereo speakers. The mono speaker volume is decently loud for a phone which is great. The video display is nice except in bright sunlight, it gets kinda hard to see. An anti glare screen protector may help but I don't have one yet. The CPU is plenty fast for me. You can run two apps on screen side by side which is neat. The 48 MP camera is decent in normal lighting I haven't tried the others. For the price, I could not beat this phone. They dropped the price because they are coming out with the 2022 models. Bought it through my local Boost Mobil and joined my wife's account creating a family plan and that took 10 bucks off the 60 dollars a month each of us pay for. That was totally worth it for both of us.. saves us 240 bucks a year. They do have cheaper plans if you don't need unlimited data and a large amount of data for a hotspot. I couldn't be happier. Get you a good shock resistant case and some screen protectors, you'll be fine. Btw, if you are a mother, Happy Mothers Day.
