How to quickly access various settings on Android

Android Settings

The Android Quick Settings Menu is always accessible from the notification bar from the latest versions of Android.

But if we wanted to have a personalized sub menu with shortcuts on Android home screen We would have to choose to configure it in a way that we will teach you today from Vinagre Asesino. The way in which we will access the different shortcuts for sound, apps or data use among others is through the Android widgets.

Instead of going to Android settings from the appropriate menu, it can be accessed via a shortcut to the respective sub menu from the Android main screen. Thus the chosen options will be before you to enable or disable.

How to create shortcuts to various settings

  • The first thing is to go to app drawer and choose the widget tab that should be at the top
  • Now you have to find the widget «Direct access to settings»

  • The different settings: Accessibility, Power management, Apps, Bluetooth, Trusted credentials, Daydream, Notifications, Display, Sound, Location, Data usage, Battery usage, Tethering and hotspot, VPN and Wi-Fi
  • You can put all the settings you want in the starting screen at the same time as agglomerate them in a folder to access them

An interesting alternative for access certain settings from the home screen and that will allow you not to have to install an app to know the data usage or create a Wi-Fi access point from your Android terminal.
