Flex and view apps on your Galaxy Z Fold2 5G or Galaxy Z Fold3 5G
Looking for a way to truly maximize your time while still enjoying all that your Galaxy device has to offer? With the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G or Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, you can do exactly that. There are several ways to view your content, like using Flex Mode to see your screen from different perspectives, and App continuity to transfer your apps from the cover screen to the main screen. Plus, the phone's durable design allows for continuous folding and unfolding throughout the day, so there is no need to worry about how often you bend or flex your device.
Note: Information provided applies to devices sold in Canada. Available screens and settings may vary for smartphones sold in other countries.
Note: Most apps are only supported in Landscape view when using Flex Mode.
Flex Mode allows you to see apps, type up notes, watch videos, take photos, and more using different orientations. Whether you are relaxing on the sofa or cooking in your kitchen, you can prop up your Galaxy Z Fold2 5G or Galaxy Z Fold3 5G to interact with the screen’s content.
To use Flex Mode, all you need to do is open an app and then partially fold your device into an L shape. For example, you can open the Camera app, partially fold your phone, and then place it on a table to take a hands-free selfie with your friends. On the bottom portion of the screen, you can control the camera's features and tap the Gallery preview to view your recent photos and videos. You can switch back to the app’s normal mode by unfolding the phone.
Alternatively, you can use Cover View by placing the Galaxy Z Fold2 5G or Galaxy Z Fold3 5G on a flat surface and then lifting the cover screen towards you. Or, prop up the device while it is still folded to use Tent View when diving into your favorite game.
When in Flex Mode, you can use Camera, Video calling, Gallery, Video player, Clock, Calendar, YouTube, Google Duo, and more!
Note: When you’re busy multitasking, use your Galaxy Z Fold2 5G or Galaxy Z Fold3 5G’s App continuity to open and view apps on both the cover screen and the main screen. You can use Landscape orientation on the cover screen as well if you are browsing websites or watching a video.
Note: Some apps are not compatible with App continuity or full-screen aspect ratio.
Note: Multi view is a new feature on the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, but what does it do? It displays some apps and settings in a multi-column layout! For example, instead of being one continuous page, the Settings app will appear as two columns, with one part displaying on the left side of the screen and the other part displaying on the right side. This means less scrolling and no more swapping back and forth between menus.
Multi view should be turned on by default on the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, but here are instructions in case you turned it off by mistake:
Note: Multi view only works in the specific apps listed above.
