I hope the priority remains Android phones, and possibly a few important Windows tutorials.

Hello Brad! Absolutely! There will be no deviation from the Android posting schedule!

I am thinking of adding additional content to our existing schedule! Rest assured there will be zero changes to Android training posting cadence! 🙌

Thank you, Larry. I appreciate the comment. Absolutely! Android posting schedule will not change at all. Think of this as “additional content”!

You need an easily searchable index of your tips & tricks. I can NEVER find what I need,know I saw you do it.

Great point, Mike. I already have a search button on the main page! I wonder if you have already used it. Right now, the post title and the content in the body of the post are searchable!

If you feel like there should be more keywords added to existing training so they are better searchable, I’ll take that consideration to the development team!

Arsen,

As a matter of fact I have. That's how I found out how to add a floating screenshot to my Galaxy S23 Ultra screen.

Appreciate all your "tips and tidbits."

Keep up the good work. Very helpful.

Amazing. I’ll work on adding more keywords into all 300 of our existing trainings to make them easily searchable! It will take time, but I’ve noted it down!

As for all upcoming content, I’ll make sure to start adding more keywords going forward!

Always a pleasure, Deb!

I love my floating screen shot. The problem I have with it is that I never know where it will be on my screen. The agrivating thing is that I should know that when I go to click on something the screen shot button is so dim, nearly invisible but when I need to click on something it never fails I click on the screen shot button. Is there a way to keep it on one place?

Patricia,

There are settings you can play around with when you have the floating icon.

You can select more "assistant items" .... and one of the choices is "Menu settings." In there you can change the size , transparency and others.

I personally like it to be movable because when I switch screens I can move it wherever needed. Good luck with it, Patricia.

Arsen, I went to the above link and do not see a search button. I took a screenshot of what I do see on the link but don't know where to show you the screen shot. I agree with others that searching is not easy...I'd like to review the video on 9:16 vs 3:4 but can't find it! :)

Hello Anthony! Thank you for the suggestion. Noted down! I’ll need to assess demand for that! Stay tuned!

Windows keeps changing and moving things!! But any Windows tips would be appreciated. I was a Blackberry girl through and through so when I finally was forced to switch to Android, your tutorials REALLY helped me learn how to navigate my phone & tablets. Now, if you can help me learn how to quit missing my Blackberry, I'll be in good shape! Thanks for all your hard work, Arsen.

Hello Roberta! Thank you for the comment. I also miss my BlackBerry 9800 and the Perl.

Amazing to hear that you find Android trainings helpful! Stay tuned for more!

Blackberry Curve, Torch, Bold, Z10 & Motion were my favs! I still have them. Silly me bought the Motion not realizing it wasn't for use in the US but the features, look & feel were better than anything I've seen. I still have it in the box. THX again!!

I would love to see a "front-to-back" on how to create engaging stories and reels on FB and IG, please.

Excellent suggestion. This might be beyond the scope of the Hardware Savvy portal, but I’ll definitely look into it.

The questions here is whether to invest time into a creator growth portal or not. I have a lot to share on that topic, as I run a consulting agency, but don’t have a community of creators to share this information with.

Frankly, I need to assess demand and see if it will be economically viable to do this. Please stay tuned.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Hello Arsen:

I have A Samsung Zfold3. I've noticed my photo adjustment settings have changed. I'm especially wondering if I can get in and manually adjust the "POP" feature when adjusting a photo I've taken. I've learned a lot from you but can't seem to find a way into my phones camera.

Wow I have your attention, is there a welcome video for the hardware savvy site. I've had this service for months but I rarely am able to access the information that I desire. And I want it so bad.

I would like to see windows and cell phone integrations to help you better manage the content. Including backing up emails to my hard drive how to effectively and efficiently use a external drive and do we still need CDs and DVDs.

It would be helpful if you could do text based versions as well as many times I am not in a video friendly area but could review text.
