Samsung android how do I do this
 
Ok so I am really stupid. Thought I would add Netflix to my phone, lord knows why.. download the app ok , said I need to input a code , which it text to me this I understand. However I have NEVER worked out how to see the other screen , while keeping the other one usable. Spent the last.hour looking at sites but still don't follow. Anyone here , put a simple step by step guide. Please no teccy descriptions . The phone is upto date , thinks sites I have found are too old to follow.

text should tell you the code in a notification just swipe down memorise the code and add it to the page often the notification will have copy as part of it

Same here re: pixels but I prefer swipe. I was looking at Sony but they have a few years support then you're on your own. :no:

I do not get why OEMs have to force their bloat on you. I was cleaning up an Honor Tablet and there is loads of pap on it same as my samsung tablets. Why do I want play store and a samsung or honor store too. Why do I need a Samsung or Honor account when to use google services I need a google account as well so why would I want to join theirs on top. And half of it you can not get rid of without doing stuff that voids warranties . Poco/ xiaomi are the worst I ever had. Any of the devices themes unique pages had adverts so file manager gallery and so on . Had to install google versions and have redundant apps you can not uninstall.

Jaymoss is right Samsung sucks. You should be able to drop the notification bar read the code and input it into netflix without having to leave the netflix page.

The alternative would be jump back into open apps. I swipe and hold from the bottom up then release to see all open apps.

Nope.

I have had Samsung phones and tablets for over 10 years and they have been fine.

Apple sucks.
