How to make the Galaxy S10 'feel' even faster with a hidden Android trick

There's a quick and easy setting you can change that makes the Galaxy S10 feel snappier.

You can reduce the animations even more by using the hidden 'developer' options.

The developer options is a hidden menu that gives you control over things that you normally don't need — or even want — to touch. But there are a few fun things to explore in there.

One of those things is reducing the animations even more than the standard animation reductions in the Galaxy S10's main settings.

To start with, head to the Settings menu of the Galaxy S10.

In the Settings menu, scroll down and tap 'About phone.'

Tap 'Software information.'

Now start tapping the 'Build number' option repeatedly. You'll see a little notification appear on the bottom saying that you're X taps away from becoming a developer. Keep tapping until you're a 'developer.'

Now go back to the S10's Settings menu and scroll down. Tap on the 'Developer options.'

Scroll down the Developer options until you find the Window, Transition, and Animator scale options.

Set each scale option to "0.5x."

You can set the scales to "off" if you want, and there won't be any animations at all. Apps will open and close instantaneously. It'll make you realize how phone makers add animations purely for aesthetic effect.

Voila! Now your Galaxy S10 should feel a lot snappier.
