S Pen of Galaxy Note10/10+

Last Update date : Nov 23. 2020

The S Pen must be charged before you can control apps remotely by pressing the S Pen button. When you insert the S Pen into the slot, charging will automatically start.

Please Note :
• If the back of your device comes into contact with a magnet, the device may not recognize the S Pen and it will fail to charge the Pen.
• Even if the S Pen has been fully discharged, you can use other S Pen features, such as tapping the touchscreen or the Air command features.

Even though you take photos with your device placed at a distance, you can easily take photos by pressing the S Pen button without setting a timer.

• To take a series of photos, press and hold the S Pen button.
• To change the shooting mode, move the S Pen to the left or right while pressing and holding the S Pen button.

To launch an action, hold down the Pen button and wave your S Pen like a wand to control the apps.

If there is no action within 800ms, it operates by the existing long-press method. If there is an action within 800ms, then it will operate as Air actions (gesture control).
