How To Get Galaxy S6 Quick Launch Camera Feature On Any Android Phone

Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge came out of the curtains few months back. Samsung named this project as project zero that hinted at a complete new shape, build, design and features. The result of project zero was pretty great. Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge were very well received by the users. Both of these devices sport same specifications with a little design variations. The S6 Edge has a curved/edge display on both the sides of its screen, while S6 has an ordinary screen.

Samsung loaded these devices with some exclusive features. One of the cool features on both these devices is the Camera Quick Launch Key. By simply pressing the home key twice, Camera opens up on S6 or S6 Edge. The short cut works from any screen, whether you’re on the lock screen, you’re playing a game or some other process is running on your phone. This feature is one of the most wanted features among Android users at the moment, and the good news is you can now get this Galaxy S6 Quick Launch Camera features on any Android phone.
