45 Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Tips & Tricks

Supercharge Your Gaming (Record it Too)

The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge have a new feature called "Game Tools" and the Game Launcher. One is just a folder with apps and games in it, but the Game Tools does some amazing things.

Launch Game Tools on the Galaxy S7 and see all it has to offer. Owners can select the highest performance possible, or a lower performance and screen resolution to save battery life, take screenshots, record video right to the phone, or even stream gaming sessions directly to YouTube. There are even controls to lock the capacitive buttons so you don't accidentally exit a game, and Samsung even has a mode to block all alerts for some serious interruption-free gaming.

It's a bit overboard, but the recording aspects are very useful, as are the lower resolution modes for games that don't need full power, which will save battery life on a long commute or flight.
