To start this long Easter week, I take a look at Easter Egg hunting with this list of more or less hidden things on your Android or iPhone smartphone.
Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like BT aint for me either. Jargon, we are talking about horse chestnut. My friend Rubens has already dusted off the Android Easter Eggs list.
Then I will dust off the lessons and other tricks that kwgeek has published for Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo or Apple users to present you with 3 tips that could be Easter Eggs as they are well hidden in your phone settings.
Tap the back function to touch the commands on the back of your Xiaomi
Launched by Apple on iOS 14, the Back Tap feature lets you create a shortcut for several commands or placements, simply by tapping the back of your iPhone. But the functionality becomes more democratic and is available, for example, in MIUI on some Xiaomi smartphones. However, the work is very hidden as you have to dig Extra sites to get it.

Dual Messenger works to have two WhatsApp accounts on your Samsung
We are not yet able to verify WhatsApp accounts on a single smartphone. But some manufacturers like Samsung allow you to have two email accounts, as long as you are dual SIM. Called Dual Messenger, this feature is also available on Xiaomi under the App Clone name as well as other Android manufacturers.

Turn on your OnePlus flashlight by drawing a V on your screen
OnePlus gives you a few tips that you can do on the screen outside of your OnePlus smartphone. Drawing a V on your OnePlus screen turns the phone’s flashlight on, for example.
This option has hidden features but is still easy to move. And, in my opinion, this is one of the most effective features that OxygenOS has to offer.

Press ctrl + Z with your fingers inside the Notes app on your iPhone
I do not use Apple every day. Then I will allow the Pommistes to take my comments higher. But as basic as this style can be, it gave me such a slap in the face when I accidentally found out to mention it here. In the iPhone Notepad app, you can deactivate (ctrl + Z) to cancel the operation using a simple touch gesture.
Just tap 3 left fingers to undo accidental deletion of a chapter, for example. You can also hit it directly to perform a back operation. This function also works on mail application, and others, but I’m sure there are others. Apple also offers many other 3-finger movements since iOS 13.

Much to this point, it must be acknowledged, adhered to but then well in the spirit and atmosphere of the Easter holiday. If you have a better Easter Egg than me, I’m obviously interested (and I’ll steal your ideas to make hehehe articles).
All I have left is to wish you a very good weekend. Good luck to those who work, because there are. And let’s see next week even more tutorials and tips and tricks on iOS features released in 2011 (little please).
