Study mode

Distracting apps wait until you are done, and notes, scans and lectures land in one place.

In this order

  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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
