Tips & How-to

Edge Lighting in Samsung Galaxy devices transforms the edges of your screen into a colorful, pulsating light panel with every new notification.

This feature allows you to customize how incoming notifications appear, with the screen edges lighting up in stunning visual effects instead of just making a sound or vibrating, giving your phone a unique and attractive look.

Why are Edge Lighting effects a special addition to your experience?

• They make receiving notifications a visually enjoyable experience, especially in dark places or during meetings.
• They allow you to customize the light color for each app, so you can identify the source of the notification just by looking at the light color.
• They offer a wide range of motion effects to suit your personal taste.
• They save you from turning on the entire screen to check for notifications, helping to conserve battery life.

Steps to enable and customize Edge Lighting effects on your phone:

1. Open the "Settings" app > tap on "Notifications."
   
   

    

2. Select "Notification pop-up style" from the displayed menu.
   
   

    

3. Ensure that the "Brief" option is checked to enable short intrusive notifications.
   
   

    

4. Tap on "Add lighting effect."
   
   
5. Explore the available options and customize "Effect," "Color," and "Advanced options" as desired, then tap "Done."
   
   

    

   

    

Thanks to this feature, notifications are no longer just ordinary alerts; they have become part of your phone's elegance and your personal experience with Samsung.
