Easy Home Screen Mode - Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Manual

Aren't Screensaver's Obsolete?
Step 8 explains how to enable and manage the Daydream mode, which is
essentially a screensaver as you might remember them from desktop comput-
ers. For many years now, screen savers have not been needed because we no
longer use Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) monitors and screens. In the days when we
used CRTs, if an image remained in one spot for a long time, it would be burned
into the front of the screen. Having a screensaver on a CRT monitor made sense
because the images were moving and changing constantly. Screen savers con-
tinued to be used because people liked seeing the patterns and images in the
screensavers. This is why Daydream mode is on your Note 5. Once activated, it
can display your photos or cool color patterns after a period of inactivity, when
you plug your Note 5 into a dock, or when it is charging.

Easy Home Screen Mode

Home Screen mode changes which
widgets are placed on your Home
screen and how many you have on
the Home screen. When Easy mode
is enabled, it makes available a lot of
widgets that have shortcuts to many
apps, and it makes the icons larger.
