How to Turn Off Pocket Mode on TCL
Are you a TCL user who has accidentally activated the Pocket Mode feature and now can’t figure out how to turn it off? Don’t worry; you’re not alone. Pocket Mode is a feature designed to provide a compact and easy-to-use interface, but it can be quite frustrating when it’s not what you’re looking for. In this article, we’ll guide you through the steps to turn off Pocket Mode on your TCL device.
First, let’s understand what Pocket Mode is and why you might want to turn it off. Pocket Mode is a simplified interface that reduces the number of visible apps and focuses on the most essential ones. While this can be helpful for some users, others may prefer the traditional interface with all their apps and features available. Here’s how to disable it:
1. Access the Settings Menu:
– On your TCL device, swipe down from the top of the screen to access the notification panel.
– Tap on the “Settings” icon, which typically looks like a gear.
2. Navigate to the Interface Settings:
– In the Settings menu, scroll down and find the “Interface” or “Home Screen” option.
– Tap on it to expand the sub-menu.
3. Select the Home Screen Type:
– Look for an option called “Home Screen Type” or “Home Screen Layout.”
– Tap on it to view the available options.
4. Choose the Standard Interface:
– In the list of options, you should see “Standard” or “Classic” as one of the choices.
– Tap on this option to switch from Pocket Mode to the standard interface.
5. Confirm the Change:
– After selecting the standard interface, you may be prompted to confirm the change.
– Tap “OK” or “Apply” to confirm and save the new settings.
6. Restart Your Device:
– To ensure that the changes take effect, it’s a good idea to restart your TCL device.
– Press and hold the power button until the device shuts down, then turn it back on.
Once you’ve followed these steps, your TCL device should be back to the standard interface, and Pocket Mode will be turned off. If you ever want to re-enable Pocket Mode in the future, simply follow the same steps and select the “Compact” or “Pocket” option instead.
Remember, the exact steps may vary slightly depending on the version of the TCL software you’re using. If the above instructions don’t work for your device, consult the user manual or the TCL support website for more detailed instructions specific to your model.
