How to Enable Focus Mode on Android 10


In this article from the Focus Mode, the Digital Wellbeing also offers a great number of metrics or data to help understand your digital life and make necessary adjustments. Like it lets you know how many hours you were on a particular app, or how many times you used your phone in a day, etc. All these details might sound not so important, however, this data is very valuable in today’s world where people are detaching from their real-life and are inclined towards their digital life. So, without any further ado, let us get straight into the article itself;

There are some other features as well that has allowed the Android 10 to make headlines after its launch. For instance, the dark mode, or the new navigation gesture system that very well makes the Android 10, one of the cleanest and fine-tuned Android OS ever.Moreover, as it a very recently launched Android OS, every OEM is gearing up for releasing the Android 10 for their smartphones.

Do Samsung, OnePlus, Motorola have this feature?
 

It should not come to a surprise for anyone that one of the biggest smartphone manufacturers in the world, does not have this Digital Wellbeing feature as all the devices including the recently Note 10 series, is also running the Android 9 Pie. However, we will very soon see One UI 2.0 which will be based on the Android 10 and by default, it will get all the Android 10 features including the Digital Wellbeing along with Focus Mode. Same is in the case with Motorola smartphone, once the company starts rolling out the Android 10 for its devices, you will get to see the Focus Mode.
 

On the other hand, OnePlus has already rolled out the Zen Mode which is similar to the Focus Mode that you get with the Android 10. So, they are pretty equipped on that front.
 

So, there you have it from my side in this post. Hope you guys liked it and were able to locate and use the Focus Mode on your Android 10 based devices. It is a pretty nice feature which I personally like as it lets you detach from the chains of the digital world and gives us ample time to focus on what is more important. Let us know in the comments if you have ever used the Focus Mode and whether it helped you improve your digital life or not. Until the next post…
