Each new Android version introduces several innovations, some of which are far from obvious. In this article we show you some tricks and tips for those who own a smartphone already updated to Android 8.0 or 8.1 Oreo.

Delay notifications

You may not know, but with Oreo you have the opportunity to postpone notifications. What does that mean? It means that you can momentarily delete a notification that at the moment annoys you and then make it reappear at a later time so as not to forget it. A more useful function than you think!

To postpone a warning, simply swipe the notification to the side but not completely. About half way should do it. A small clock will appear which, if tapped, will make you specify when to review the message.

Disable Notification Dots

Notification dots are a novelty of Android Oreo, but what are they? They are nothing more than those colored dots that you can see on the icons of your apps when you receive notifications.

The dots are there to remind you that you have an incoming notification from that particular application, which you can access from the smartphone's notification area or hold down the icon.

For some users these stickers may be annoying, but here's how to disable them:

Press and hold a blank point on your Home screen.

Click Home Settings.
Select the item Notification indicators.
Deactivate the switch under Allow notification dots.
And voilà, a simple and effective solution to get rid of those ugly badges above the icons of your apps.

Free up space with just a few taps

Android Oreo has an interesting function that allows you to free up the internal memory in just a few simple steps. This function is available on all smartphones with Android stock including Infinix series.

First, the system allows you to check how many apps or contents occupy your memory by categories.

By going to Settings and selecting Storage space, you can access the list. By selecting each category you will be presented the applications related to the category and the various files with their size.
You will then be able to decide whether it is worthwhile to get rid of some apps that you don't use a lot and that weigh down the available memory.

At the top of the list you will also find a button called Free Space.

Tapping the button will show us a list of items we can delete to free space from memory.
In my example in the list I find some files in the Downloads folder, a list of less used applications and the item Backup photos and videos.
The latter just controls the multimedia content saved on Google Photos and suggests you delete it from your smartphone as you can access it by opening the app and accessing the cloud.
