Features and quirks specific to the ROG Phone 2 (List/Find 'em here)

[jkeener88]

Coming from slightly older Samsungs, see sig, learning about my first ever ASUS phone, found some cool feature(s).

If you go into Settings, Advanced, Gestures, click Gestures, near the bottom is the "Gestures on dark screen"

You can enable the following:

"W, S, E, C, Z, V" to launch app (pick any app), so once set, when the screen is locked (dark) just write the letter with your finger and the app will open straight up!

Pretty cool!!

NOTE: Maybe not specific to this phone (not sure), but not a feature I ever found on my previous phones, so a cool feature nonetheless.

Also coming from older Samsung and Nexus devices, never seen this feature on other devices:

If you go to Settings, Battery, PowerMaster, Battery Care, you can enable a feature that will dynamically adjust the charging current/speed during a set period of time (say from 10pm to 7am) so that your phone will charger slower but will still always be fully charger by the end time. This can slow down battery degradation and have a dramatic effect on battery life in the long run!
