SideSync 3.0

Samsung's Essentials has an app called SideSync 3.0
PlayStore: SideSync 3.0

For those of you who have not tried it yet, it is well worth the time to install the app and get used to what it can do for you.

For me, the single most important thing it will do is make Screenshots a piece of cake.

If you, like me, once you have your phone set up the way you like it, you have each of the screens memorized.

but, what if, and don't say it can't happen, something scrambles up your phone and you are forced to reset it to scratch and rebuild it all over again?

If you have a set of Screenshots saved on your PC, that can reduce your frustration time to a minimum.

give it a try... oh, one other thing: Folders

If you are not using Folders, you are missing out on a very simple way to reduce clutter and keep similar apps grouped together.


Like here, I have all of my WiFi tools grouped into one folder.

I have reduced the number of Page Screens from 7 down to 4.

here is my Folders Page:

​


I make it the 2nd page from the far left which is my Home Screen accessed from the Home Menu Button instantly.

The Battery Doctor Widget is a very convenient tool to have. In the pix above, it is the icon just above the MyMail icon. It will let you, in one place control all of the things you want to Turn ON, or OFF.


I will show it full size:

Sidesync is not working with my Samsung Note 10.1 and my Dell Windows 7 PC. I keep getting a message that it couldn't find the device even though I had the PC and tablet connected via USB. Any help would be appreciated!

What version SideSync are you running currently? Have you checked for updates?
Sounds like you have a PC issue.
Try connecting through Wi-Fi.
