Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G - Tips and Tricks! (Hidden Features)

[@patpowers853]

I got this phone yesterday and I was so confused. I went out to KZbin and came across your video. It has been so helpful and I've already used some of your tips. Thanks for helping in this way.

Moto Sux. I got this phone ,. 2nd one and they are both the noisiest phones i had owned. I despise Moto and was force to upgrade due to 5g Towers. Love my Xiaomi Note 9, I hate everything about Moto. Overpriced junk

Just got this phone yesterday and I already LOVE IT! Was sad LG stopped making phones as I have had them for over 15 years! But this was my phone I got and I am SO glad I did

O wow!! LOL that's amazing thank you!!!!!

[@Shudaba]

After LG for 10+ years I find this moto amazing. Super fast, sleek and easy to navigate. Very similar to a classic op system instead of the "easy to use" Samsung or iPhone. Love it and will continue using Motorola

[@theillegalseagull6838]

Yeah it's a shame that lg stopped making phones made me kinda sad

[@JakeSmith-ux1xk]

Cat I've also owned LGs

I've had LGs for years now. I just bought this phone, and I'm so excited!

[@aggiepride982]

Same here I hate Samsung always bought LG or Motorola. this phone kinda reminds me of the Nexus 6 probably best phone I ever had

[@D-Nedo]

Do you know how to find the hidden menu to the sensor option??

[@samholt4139]

You saved Motorola from losing alot of customers by letting us all know we can still have 3 button navigation cause i was about to not get this phone cause of the gesture nav, but when you brought up the 3 button nav i was sold on it thanks

[@PlayaHataz710]

Eh it's honestly an opinion, ik alot of people that think the 3 button nav makes the phone look like a free cheap government phone and in my opinion the gestures make it way easier to navigate, moto has customers anyways.

[@angelalarry3761]

I swear....I was about to to get rid of it for the same reason. Thx Kevin

[@lolab6712]

I agree! It's hard for an old leopard to change it's spots! LOL

[@mpound97]

@@lolab6712 I changed pretty quickly. I got the phone a few days ago and I'm used to the gestures already. I went to do something on my old phone and I'm swiping and doing all this stuff that isn't working. Then it took a second to realized that I had to use the physical buttons...😄

[@donnyjones6054]

Once you learn how to use the gesture it's very simple all 3 buttons in one. I couldn't figure out how to switch it back to the three buttons so i just learned how to use it and its a million times better and faster

[@davet9387]

I just got one of these yesterday and I was getting pretty frustrated with it. This video has been immensely helpful. Thank you!

[@cheyennestewart5930]

Thank God I got my three buttons back lol

Had it for about 3 week. Definitely enjoy it. Use alot of gestures after taking a bit to get use to them

😂😂 my son is working out of town and can't help with this stuff so thank you for posting this👍

[@Tbone42tx]

Just got this phone today after selling my iPhone 12, I was thinking I'd be disappointed after downgrading but so far I love it!! I had a couple LG Stylo phone's before but this one is much better, and I like it without the 3 button set up works like my iPhone did so I'm use to not having it plus it's easier to just swipe

I got this phone the other day and I love it!

Thank you so much for making this video Kevin. It is so helpful. I just got this phone today and was pretty overwhelmed, but your video sure helped. Thank you again.

[@Dawnc-7]

Since this is a phone with a stylus, I would have liked to have seen more about features using it. Is there a notepad feature? What tips or tricks can you do with the stylus on this phone?

[@cxris_7]

There is a notepad, once the stylus is taken out a small popup appears that you can click on to get to the notepad :)

[@warzoneidiot881]

And also you can replace the apps with other ones

[@djtexicano]

It comes with Moto Note app

[@renesegat235]

Just got this phone. Thank you SO Much for the tips. You totally helped me with what I needed.

[@elle45789]

Thanks for your videos. They have helped (grandma) a lot. The other day something flashed for a few seconds on the far bottom left of my phone screen. I could not make out what the symbol is, but one time I had an app I had given permission to my microphone, and at 10:30pm I and a notification that it turned on my mic. To say the least I was very upset and removed the app altogether. So this makes me nervous. Do you know what icon would have flashed there for only 8-10 seconds? thanks

[@sharonstadterman0925]

Did you know you can also use your own handwriting to form into words on your keyboard? When your on the keyboard, that little world button in the lower left next to the space bar, you just tap that and you then can use your stylus out finger to input your text!! I thought this was so neat to be honest. It knows when you need a space, it reads script, it can detect some emojis as well!!

You can do that with any phone 😂

I just got this phone yesterday, from Boost Mobile which seems to have customized the interface a little. On the plus side, the three button navigation is the default. On the down side, there was no google search bar and it took a while to figure out how to get one on the main screen. I have a question if anyone knows - my previous phone let me see all the recent apps and close them, either individually or close all. Is there any way to do that on this phone/version of Android?

The square button at the bottom will show you all the recent apps. Tap an app, hold, and "throw" it up to dismiss it. Scroll all the way from left to right and there's an option to dismiss all recent apps.
