So I have some crazy smartphone hacks that work on most phones that you are definitely going to want to try as soon as you see them. Like did you know? If you have any spare batteries lying around the house, you can grab them and using the negative side of the battery check this out. It actually works as a stylus on your phone, so you can navigate all your home screens go to the app drawer and basically do anything you would with a normal stylus, except with a battery. It also works on an iPhone perfectly fine, and you can even draw in notes using the battery and that's pretty cool, because I actually had no idea. You could do that, but also, if you have some foil and a pencil lying around, just grab a small piece of foil and wrap it around the eraser end of the pencil and just like that. Once again, you have a stylus, it might seem a little random.
I know, but during winter, when you've got gloves on, and you don't want your hands to get cold. This is a good option. So if you don't have a stylus, these are some pretty nifty hacks and also stay until the end of the video, because I have some free wallpapers for you guys that you are definitely not going to want to miss now. This reflection trick is a swanky idea. If you want a really futuristic dashboard in your car, not only that this is really useful, and it is a navigation app.
So what you do is you install the app called runway? Then, once that's installed, you can go ahead and do all the usual things you would in a navigation app. But here is the cool futuristic part once you add in your address and ask for directions. If you click on this HUD mode button, it mirrors the entire screen, which is super confusing, but then what you do. Are you slide it up your dashboard until you see the reflection of the map in your car's windshield, so you have this futuristic holographic dash map. Okay, now here is a wild trick to check the batteries on any remote control.
So I don't know about you guys, but occasionally in the past, I've used remote controls. Thinking either the TV is broken or my remote's batteries are out. So what you can do to test this at home is simply open up your phone's camera point it at the remote and then click any button on your remote control. If you see any flashing lights like this, then you know the batteries are fine, and it's most likely your TV. So let me level with you guys I kind of have a useful trick.
That'll really help you straighten things out. This is an amazing little feature that you can find just on: Google Chrome by typing in bubble level, then by using the built-in gyroscope and accelerometer. If I'm not mistaken in your phone, you have this digital bubble level that you can just pop on any surface and use it to level things out. It is also amazingly accurate, as you can see, and by the way, if you're busy, enjoying this video then definitely sub to the channel, because we're on the road to 1 million and if you subbed, that would be now when I actually tried and tested this hack out on both these phones. My mind was pretty much blown to smithereens just saying I am totally not exaggerating guys.
This is so cool because if you have a Bluetooth mouse lying around go ahead, grab it pop it on and then put it into the Bluetooth pairing mode once you've done that all you're going to do is swipe down on your notification panel and access your Bluetooth settings right at the bottom. You should then see the name of your mouse. Go ahead, click on it and pair it to your device and like that, you now have a fully functioning mouse that works on your phone. Did I not tell you this was crazy cool? It works exactly the same as any mouse would on a computer. You can scroll with it, and it also works on an iPhone.
So what are you waiting for? Go find a Bluetooth mouse. Now, I'm not gonna lie to you guys. This is a little of a weird one, but it can be useful in certain situations and specifically when your power goes out or maybe when you're camping. Basically, what you do is pop on your phone's flashlight then grab yourself a glass of water and check this out guys watch what happens when you place it in front of your flashlight. It gives off a much punchier, brighter effect and amazingly lights up the room so much more than just having the flashlight on its own.
You can even concentrate the light more by pulling it further away from the glass. So it's a lot of fun to try out and if you want more of a soft lamp light just place the glass of water. On your flash like this, then here we have something. You've, probably never thought to do and that's using your sunglasses as a filter. So sometimes when taking pictures with bright lights or in direct sunlight, it can be hard to get a good picture and also not pick up so much glare.
So by using your sunglasses as a natural filter, you can get some pretty crisp clean photos with much better lighting and not so much glare. Obviously, depending on what sunglasses you use, you'll get a different effect, but for the best effect, definitely try to go for a pair of polarized sunglasses as that enhances the shadows the most and gives an overall amazing effect, especially when out and about okay, guys time for some sneaky secret codes. So this is a really useful one for everyone out there. If you open up your keypad and type in starhash06hash and call it'll instantly display your device's IMEI number, as well as serial number and barcodes, then to be a bit sneaky. If you type in three one hash and call it'll, actually disable your caller ID.
So if you ever want to make a phone call and hide your caller ID just type in hash31hash before the phone number then hit that dial button and the other person receiving a call will not know it. Are you because you typed in that secret code, then for my android users out there? If you type in star hash, zero-star hash, it brings up the secret testing menu where you can test out a bunch of different features on your phone, like the speakers as well as sensors, and so much more, I'm not sure how to do this on iPhone. So, if you know, let me know down in the comments now for this one, I'm pretty sure in the past, you've had debates with friends or family members and needed to flip a coin. But what, if you don't have a coin around? Well, you can actually just ask google to flip a coin for you and in a matter of seconds, she'll have a response. It's heads, if that's not ridiculously cool and convenient, then I don't know what is and for all my iPhone users out there.
You can do the exact same thing just by asking Siri once again to flip a coin and in a matter of seconds she'll say it's tails. So definitely don't forget about this tip next time. You need to make a wild decision now believe it or not. There are still so many phones out there that cannot take macro shots even like this iPhone 12. You can get pretty close to your subject, but nonetheless, it's still not the same as a macro shot and still doesn't capture quite as much close-up detail, but an interesting hack that actually works is, if you place your phone facing up and get this place, a small drop of water on your camera lens, it actually magnifies your shots and acts like a tiny mini macro lens.
So then, what you can do is grab any object and hold it slightly above the lens just like this and capture a bunch of macro shots having an Apple Watch does make it easier to grab picks, but you can also use the volume button as your shutter button and check out the difference between having the water droplet and not guys. It's pretty insane- and I cannot believe you can do this just by using water, then not forgetting those free wallpapers for you guys.
