OMG thank you sooo much. I upgraded quite a bit with this phone. My last phone was 32 gb. I hate getting a new phone because there is so much work involved setting it up, adjusting settings and learning how to use it. I HATED gesture controls and I'm so glad there was a way to disable it. Thanks again. You may have saved my sanity!!!
C'mon folks, how can anybody NOT like this? The presentation is informative, it flows well, and it is pleasant to listen to; plus you learn a lot! Thanks for this!
many thanks for this vid!!!! I've had only LG's for the last 25 years... just got a MOTO g Stylus today and was totally lost!!! your vid is a life saver.. Thank you again!!!
I’m 74 and just got the phone. This was an excellent video and easy to understand. Compliments to the young man who presented it, excellent. I’m looking forward to his more advanced videos.
Much more beginner friendly than I expected! I was looking for a phone only guide but you cover a portion of the basics of the OS as well. Friendly enough my elderly relatives can watch with ease, and informative enough than I'm still learning new functions introduced in the phone. Outstanding!
Thanks. This was a good start. My learning curve with this Moto G Stylus 2021 (coming from an old iPhone) has been difficult and frustrating. I'm encouraged now. Thanks again.
Hi, I am iPhone, iMac, iPad, Apple TV and all. But this android phone really tickles me. You come from iPone too. In nutshell, are you happy now? Would you come back to iPhone. Were you much invited in the Apple echo system like me? I'd really like to have this phone but I'm so hesitating...
By far this is the best moto 5G beginner video. Just got my new phone yesterday and I learned so much from watching you. Your voice is pleasant to listen to, your speech is clear and the pace is good. I'm coming from an iphone to an android so I especially liked how you didn't rush through the "easier" features of the phone or assume that we knew things. Thank you very much for an excellent presentation. New subscriber.
Thank you very much for taking the time to make this informational video. I just bought this phone and I am "technologically challenged" and I loved how you explained things in a very calm and soothing voice. I am definitively subscribing.
I'm only 6 minutes in and already grateful for what I've watched so far! Just got my phone yesterday and it needs to be connected...thought I'd watch some videos first. So glad this is the first one I found...I'm sure I'll be referring to it a few more times before I'm really comfortable...thanks for taking the time to put together a really informative video!
Pulled out my LG K50 the other night and it also has a Two Button gesture mode for navigation. I found it to be a whole lot easier moving about the phone.
I suffer from severe rheumatoid arthritis chronic. All my phone's when going to charge putting it into the plug I cannot see and I bend them they break then I can't get into my phone. I was introduced to wireless charging I fell in love. I only have one good hand this is a device that could really be used in my home since I live alone. It's amazing what you people can do nowadays with electronics if I wasn't such a dinosaur I wouldn't be so thrilled when I see ads like this. I'm getting the chance to win one is better than I expected this morning. I see this being a very big help in my home and the convenience it has. That's the trick that I find was so awesome. So I'm crossing my fingers my name is picked. I'm so glad I searched this morning I was getting a little down around the edges.
I'm a ghost. Swiping is an exercise in frustration because it rarely works the way I need it to. Thank you for instructions on not using gestures. Will look to see if you have a set up video, too.
Thank you for this video it was helpful ..I do have a question.. ...when you adjust the volume for your "ringer" the volume for your text adjusts to the same volume level..., is there a way for the "ringer" and the " text" to have different levels of volume when alerting you?
Thanks for sharing! How do you delete the recent apps? I've been trying to figure that out. Plus, my phone vibrates every time I lay it down or pick it up. Cant seem to stop disable that. Thanks again.
Thanks for this video. I have only had this for about a week as my business phone line and I could not figure out how to get those 3 buttons to show up and that was really bothering me 😂
Loved your video. Altho I'm not tech ignorant, I don't spend 4 hours a day on my phone either. My current phone...with Android 6... is an LG Stylo (the original,---before the Stylo 2). I really want a stylus. So, in this price range, it's sorta this phone or the Stylo 6. My carrier is MetroPCS. Question: I hate clutter; approx. what percentage of the apps can be uninstalled? Also, if you're familiar with the original Stylo, how much "better" (I know, I know), is this phone? Thanks again for a very helpful video as I'm a little impatient when it comes to learning curves.
I also have an LG Stylo 4+ and to me it's no different than using it except the LG gallery and music apps are far better than that google crap that comes on it. This IS a stock phone by the way. If you like using the LG gallery and music apps you will have to find another if you don't like the google ones. I use BlackPlayer for music and Best Gallery-Photo Manager, Smart Gallery Album for pictures.
I have problems with strange sounds for senior that was coming on my new phone today. would you please advise how to turn off the strange sounds from Motoroal G stylus? Thanks
Could anyone please advise how can I set up speed dial in Moto G Stylus? Like holding a certain number on the number pad and it will automatically call the designated phone number? Thanks much!
Ordered one last night and then found a downloadable user's manual online. It's around 40 pages long and it looks like it won't be much different than using my LG Stylo 4+.
@@jodij6280, I've downloaded manuals for just about every phone I've aquired and have found them to have more information than what came with the phone and are easy for me to understand.
I just got my phone (2020 version) 2 days ago. When I try to move an app from the folder the icon goes on the bottom of the screen (where my phone icon is located). When I try to delete it and try again, it does get deleted but the same icon automatically takes it's place. I hope that's understandable. What am I doing wrong?
I don't know how to take off the double tap or ever it's called, but when I push on my phone too many times my screen gets shows a orange line across the whole screen and my screen gets bigger, how do I stop this?...
You can Archive by swiping left or right on the contact when you first open the app. Press the three(3) buttons in the upper right corner to get to the Archived messages.
HOW TO REMOVE A STUCK STYLUS? My stylus pen is stuck in the phone and won't come out. He pushed it in the wrong way so now I can't pull it out. The spring works and you can grab it but it will not come out.
I feel really stupid, but in recent apps screen how do you close them? I'm used to LG phone and that asks which ones you want to close or an all button.
On the Motorola Stylus 2021, it seems impossible to keep the display On. Why is this? I've had older, cheaper phones with older operating systems where that was not a problem. It isn't worth the price.
Where are my SMS messages from my old phone? They did not transfer! My passwords didn't transfer either. My call logs either, I cannot find the quick settings menu. What do 8 need to turn off immediately on this device?
I really need to know how to get my Motorola Stylo out of a white screen. It's on every video. And I have black dots all over in the background. Please help me
If you go to the help section in camera mode it will tell you how. You will want the " Spot Color mode. click learn more. When you click The little 3 equal sign next to video, photo , it will present you with all the modes. ? up in the left hand corner will bring you to The About photo and video modes, from there just scroll down to the mode ypu are looking for and click learn more.
Can someone please tell me where the Comfort View is on the Moto G stylus I've had one on every single phone I've ever owned the Comfort View is what takes out the blue light so your eyes don't strain the blue light kills me so please somebody tell me where is the Comfort View on a Moto G
Omg, thank you!! I just received this phone,and I hated it because I couldn't figure out how to remove gestures features! Lol 😂 I'm keeping it now,You know your old when you can't use gestures features.. lol 😂😆😂 thanks again!
It's automatic. If you want to see when a text message was sent go to Messages app, touch contact you have message from, touch bubble and it will show the time it was sent or arrived.
In a text message? Open Messages app. Pick contact you want to send picture to. Press icon that looks like a picture with a camera in front of it. I think you can take it from here...
They should be saved in a folder on you phone or micro SD card. Try using the File Manager app to locate it and then you should be able to delete them.
I use the apps for Yahoo and Outlook. Gmail won't let me use it because I won't give it the information it wants but I think it doesn't need. I've been using Yahoo email and Outlook email since before there were smartphones.
