Check Your TV Remote
With the help of the camera in your smartphone, Android users can check if their TV remote is working fine or not.
When you are lazy and don’t feel like going down to the market for remote shopping, you can simply download this application and check your remote control. This can be done by launching the camera on your smartphone, take the remote control of your TV and point it towards the camera, and take a snapshot. If you see a pink or a red light coming from the sensor of the remote control, it means that the remote is working fine as the red light depicts infrared signals. In this particular case, you need to change the batteries of your remote with fresh ones as the old ones might have expired. However, if there is no such light coming from the sensor of the remote, then you will have to buy a new one as the remote would not be working. You can search for remote controls online or go down to the store to buy them.
Is Your Smartphone Secure?
Having documents and pictures in your smartphone raises the concern for security. You cannot afford to lose such sensitive information and let hackers manipulate you. Therefore, you need to enhance the security of your phone so that you can enjoy the aforementioned camera features with a peace of mind.
When it comes to the security of your smartphone, locking it with a password is the first thing that comes to mind because of it the simplest way to keep anything locked away. However, when it comes to online accounts, password management can get a little confusing because there are several accounts synced with your smartphone and it can become extremely difficult for you to remember all the passwords by heart. Therefore, you should use a password manager for generating and managing your passwords so that you never mix up the passwords of different accounts.
People often use the same password for every account, which can be very risky as the intruder will only have to crack one password and he will have access to all your accounts without going through much trouble. This way you can lose much more than just your data, so it is better to use different passwords for different sites and use a password manager for managing all the passwords.
So, enjoy these amazing camera features in your Android phone and make sure that you take into account all the security measures to keep yourself safe from intruders and other prying eyes.
