Customize Moto Actions on Motorola Moto X
If you are looking for a new Android based smartphone, maybe you will want to consider the new Motorola Moto X. You probably already know all about its technical specs, but you can be sure that the included software is amazing as well.
We want you to know the fact that there are four main apps that you’ll need to set up: we are talking about Moto Voice which gives you the possibility to wake your Moto X by simply using a voice command, Moto Assist which is an ideal feature whether you’re driving, sleeping, at home or in a meeting, Moto Display as long as for this Moto X smartphone Motorola decided to rebrand the Active Display app as Moto Display, allowing you to peek at the most recent notifications by using only a finger or to detect when your hand is near, activating even before you even touch it, as well as Moto Actions.
That’s exactly what we want to talk about in this guide, given the fact that Moto Actions is all new with this Moto X handset and its Droid Turbo brother.
Utilizing the IR sensors that can be found on the front of Motorola’s Moto X smartphone, Moto Actions gives all users the chance to interact with the device by using some simple gestures. To be more precise, you can simply wave a hand above the device when you want to silence calls when you don’t want to answer and the annoying alarm in the morning, to launch the camera when the smartphone is sleeping by flicking your wrist twice and much more than that.
Are you prepared to find out more about how it really functions? Then, the step by step tutorial that we have here is just what you need:
