Study mode
Distracting apps wait until you are done, and notes, scans and lectures land in one place.
In this order
- Choose who can reach you while you work
A mode decides which people and apps can interrupt you. Set it up once, then switch it on whenever you need quiet.
Focus modes, about 4 minutes, on Samsung and Pixel - Take a breath before opening a distracting app
A short pause appears before the apps you choose open. You can still go in, but the moment to think helps break the automatic habit.
Pause Point, about 2 minutes, on Pixel - Use two apps at once
Keep a map open while you message, or a recipe next to a video. Both apps stay live side by side.
Split screen, about 2 minutes, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi - Turn paper into a clean PDF with your camera
Point your phone at a receipt or form and get a flat, cropped copy you can save or send, no scanner needed.
Document scanner, about 2 minutes, on Samsung, Pixel and Xiaomi - Turn recordings into notes you can read
Record a lecture or meeting and get the full text, plus a short summary, without typing a word.
Recording transcripts and summaries, about 2 minutes, on Samsung and Pixel
Not every step exists on every phone. Each guide shows only the brands we have steps for, and Phonewell skips what your model doesn't have.
