This works ty


there's another way to take a screenshot:

1. Go "Setting"
2. Go "Accessibility"
3. Scroll down to "Accessibility Menu"
4. Enable it
5. You should see a "little man" icon at the bottom right
6. Click on it, you should see the option to take a screenshot

Base from experience which one is the best uve tried.... Also would u recommend and must have softwares which u find useful in pixel3?


You can install 3rd party apps such as Floating Bar v40, Edge Action, Smart Touch Pro etc, they can have virtual key that allow you to power off, restart or take screenshot.

@bryant_16 is right, there is no best, depending on your preference, I personally prefer Floating Bar V40 over the other two.

I use Nova Launcher on all my devices, the gesture, multi-page dock, icon pack support etc are the must have features for me. Especially for Pixel 3 XL that do not have native double tap to lock screen, Nova's gesture input fill in this gap.
My only complaint for Nova was not having dark mode for the Google Discover page, but just today the beta version finally add the dark mode option, so Nova to me is perfect now!

Just received my Totallee case. Took some time to come in.

Quality is good and it really is what it says, it is a thin case. There is a lip for the fingerprint sensor and camera but no lip for the screen, to maintain its thinness.

People mindlessly chasing for more RAM in their phones. But if app developers dont manage their app's activity lifecycle properly, apps will still be required to be re-launched after user leaves it in the background.

Many other factors at play too. Theres also Android's native memory management. https://developer.android.com/topic/performance/memory-overview

Yup RAM not optimise. Samsung needs more RAM cos bloatwares and duplicate apps.

Alright thanks any other apps that you guys can recommend? I'm actually very impressed with this.
Impressed with the apps or the phone?
Usually you can go play store look at the top recommendations. That will give you a better idea.

Anyone knows how to trigger ok Google using voice? For some reason my pixel 3 do not respond when I say ok Google or hey Google. Also, is there a way for it to auto turn on the screen when I pick it up from the table similar to my old iPhone 7

2. Settings > Display > Ambient Display > Lift to check phone

I actually use the squeeze. Love its function. It is so intuitive you wonder why other phones don't have it.

What is the best casing for pixel3? Pixel3 casing doesn't seem readily available like Samsung and apple phones
