[@miguel_simao]

Great round up of apps. My faves of the bunch are Snipd, Flashdim, TapScroll and Dual Wallpaper. By the way, @sambeckman can you tell me were I can find the wallpaper displayed in minute 5:38 please? It´s truly beautiful, and I already raced through your personal created wallpapers and I cannot find it. Again, thanks for this curated list. Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅

*Having Issue with recoding gameplay sound*
Need Help Please -
Before I could do screen Recording for my Gameplay with sound
But I like the Option in Gaming Booster Setting to have the Folating Recod Icon.
But after I click on Gaming Booster Setting & set the Icon, it does not record Gameplay Sound :(
YES I have chosen the MEDIA option, but it does record sound with Mic, but that also recods surrounding Noises
Is there a way to STOP the Gaming Booster Setting or revert to original ?
or UNINSTALL it
I even unistalled Gaming Hub, thing this could be casing the issue, but still have issue with NO Recording sound
Felt its one of these 2 Apps that I felt could cause this, because after I on these it messed up
I even format my Phone (Fold 5) and now again stuck with no Recording sound again :(
Cause I click on these Two Apps

[@manindranirmal]

Cashew and smartspacer my favorite so far and I found those in your video previously. Thank you for that. Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas 🎄

[@DrNabeel20]

Thanks for all your choices through this year ❤

[@benjijmason]

Great video, as always! Can I ask. What keyboard are you using there, Sam? Thanks!!

[@manasavavilapalli]

Love your videos. Will ve trying out Monitor+

[@Rainquack]

1:06 - Interesting. Samsung's flashlight brightness is adjustable right from the quick tile, in five steps.
I'm on a A72 - OneUI 5.1/Android 13, and heard that they wanted to change OneUI in a way that would ruin usability imho, so I'm not sure if that's still a thing.

[@KrishnaKeKisse]

Yes

[@yousafdehzad4166]

Love your videos mate!!!

[@ashishsamson8518]

Ty as always, On to the next year :)

[@ArtemisFowl-hz9fp]

Love your videoss🙌🏻❤

[@accessdenied3350]

Oh wow Spotify, man I was a superfan. Then I discovered YT music, can't imagine going back. Don't get me wrong Spotify is amazing, but when you're from a small island nation like NZ, it's really hard to find home grown music on that platform. But because YT music has every song UA-cam has, I can find obscure or even old Polynesian music my grandparents use to listen to, otherwise I'd be really keen to use swapify.

[@sumbomarcus]

[@Rob02150]

Curious to the type of wireless charger you're using at 5:48. I'm looking for one that will work in landscape mode.

[@narutoso111]

is it possible to get a volume slider on the control center like on ios?

[@renzu_8433]

Do you have any apps that know how to have multiple accounts and then you can use them at the same time?just like can multitasking.

[@runnykals2843]

This is so cool 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@pratikranjan9498]

[@hypnotize107]

Whats the first phone with face camera on top left?

[@TheJadongrant]

Can't find smartspacer in the play store, is it location locked or just blind?

[@somberries1255]

i literally cannot find the phone he uses with the punch hole on the left side of the screen, all companies i know have center punch hole designs

[@barteczekz]

Hey Sam, great content! I've installed Smartspacer based on your recommendation, however, I can't get over background location bug in the maps add-in. Any idea what might be causing this?

[@sambeckman]

Yes I ran into this issue too! From memory, you've actually gotta grant background usage to Google Maps, not just to Smartspacer. Hope that helps!

[@barteczekz]

@@sambeckman 😐 The thing is that permissions are greyed out for this plug-in, I can't grant any. Must be a bug, thanks anyway!

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

​@barteczekz so it's NOOOOOO GOOD

[@sambeckman]

No, I mean you have to go to the Google Map's settings page and grant it background permission.@@barteczekz

[@barteczekz]

@@sambeckman Wow, this helped! Thank you!

[@MegaAwesomeguys]

The Pixel Launcher Mod needs root access right?

[@yashxgx]

Yupp

[@i_shubham_mehula7638]

the best app should be the ones that do not require root access..since not a lot of people have root access unlocked on there devices

[@mjtejero]

yea, should be greatly considered

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

Good point

[@thepublicer5432]

pixel launcher mod work on android 14?

[@Mikein203]

I'm thinking about testing out the Pixel Launcher today on my Samsung S22U. Have you been using this launcher in the past?

[@thepublicer5432]

​@@Mikein203im a pixel phone user so pixel launcher comes with default.but still i do prefer it over any other stock launcher.

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

​@@thepublicer5432should get Samsung instead

[@Incognito040]

My 2nd favorite tech youtuber after Mrwhoistheboss . I can bet if he continues like this , he will reach 10 million soon ❤

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

Nope

[@trivedreddy8433]

​@@DENVEROUTDOORMANhaha 😂😂

[@BevertonRayan]

been using hail for a while based on your recommendation but the hide option has been giving me "no permission" as an error, everything else like disable and suspend work just fine.

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

[@amitmajumdar193]

Nope

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

[@shreeshsingh32]

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

Why get useless Crapple features for an android phone

[@szemtelen]

Sam Beckman Freud?

[@ovrxpsd]

kind of dumb to feature apps that "you dont really use".
still watched because of the cinematography though.
