With the integration of front cameras on the screen of mobile phones, the notch came into our lives for a while and now with the leap that this technology has taken to make way for holes on the screen, this need is still very present for users . We refer to the possibility of hiding the notch or hole on the Samsung screen , an option that comes by default in One UI and allows us to choose our aesthetics.
There are many people who are not convinced by this hole or projection on the screen and would prefer to return to the classic screen frames. Since this doesn’t seem possible, we can at least simulate the display frame on our Samsung Galaxy with the software. This option is available on all phones with One UI in any version that has a different front camera than what was traditional.
Steps to hide the notch on Samsung mobiles
To have the screen to our liking, we will only have to go to our mobile and follow the steps that we are going to explain. Without the need to install applications or complicated processes, we will be able to hide any notch or camera hole in the infinity of Samsung mobiles that already integrate it. This is how you can hide the notch on your Samsung mobile:
- We start by accessing the mobile Settings.
- Once inside, we go to the screen section.
- Then we choose “Full screen applications”.
- This will take us to a list of apps that work as we decide, but we can also change this option in all of them at once.
- To do this we will touch on the three points at the top.
- Then the “Advanced Settings” button will appear on which we click.
- Here we have available the button to “Hide camera aperture”.
Just by doing this process a black line will be placed at the height of the front camera or notch of the mobile. This will accompany us in each and every one of the apps, lowering the limit of the screen. This causes the measurements on our screen to change through software, although that area will actually continue to be a screen.
Unlike other brands, Samsung does change the position of the notifications and lower all the content a few millimeters lower by activating the option to hide the hole on the screen . For everything else, the use of the mobile will remain the same and if at some point we want to recover the hole again we will have to follow the same steps.
