Language & Input

Text Correction and Keyboard Input Settings

Realme UI includes a set of typing tools that catch mistakes, predict words, and adapt to the languages you use most. This area covers autocorrect, predictive text, spell check, and personal dictionaries, and explains how each one shapes what you see while typing. Understanding these settings helps you fix annoying auto-changes without losing the convenience they were built for.

Eye Comfort and Blue Light Protection

Eye Comfort is the screen setting on Realme phones that reduces blue light and adjusts color tone to ease strain during long sessions or evening use. It works alongside brightness and dark mode to make the display gentler on your eyes without turning the screen unusably yellow. This overview explains what the feature actually changes and when it makes sense to rely on it.

Turn Touch Vibration On or Off

Every tap on a menu, button or option on your Realme phone triggers a short vibration by default. During calls, gaming or one-handed typing, that constant buzz starts to feel like unwanted haptic noise. It also fires on the on-screen navigation buttons, not just inside apps.

Auto Brighten Screen for Face Recognition

If face unlock keeps failing in dim rooms or at night, your Realme phone might not be brightening the display enough to scan your face properly. The Auto brighten screen for face recognition feature controls this automatic boost, and when it is off or set the wrong way, unlocking in low light becomes unreliable.

Unlock Hidden Apps with Fingerprint

Hidden apps on your Realme phone usually ask for a PIN or password before they open, even if you already unlocked the phone with your fingerprint. That extra step gets annoying if you check a hidden app several times a day. The fix is a setting most people overlook inside the fingerprint options, not inside App Lock itself.

Screen-off Unlock: Light or Firm Touch

If your Realme phone unlocks the moment you rest a finger on the power button, or refuses to unlock until you press it firmly, the screen-off unlock sensitivity is set the wrong way for how you hold your phone. This setting controls whether a light touch or a firm press on the fingerprint sensor in the power button wakes and unlocks the device.

Security & Privacy

Change Privacy Password Security Question

If you set up the privacy password on your Realme phone but can no longer remember the security question tied to it, you could get locked out of hidden apps and files. The security question acts as the backup recovery method for that password, so an outdated or forgotten answer becomes a real problem the moment you need it. Realme lets you update this question directly from the security settings without wiping your hidden data.

Rename a Fingerprint

On a Realme phone every fingerprint you enroll gets a generic label like Finger 1 or Finger 2 by default. Once you have three or four prints stored, that numbering makes it hard to remember which entry belongs to which finger or family member. Giving each print a proper name keeps your fingerprint list readable at a glance.

Smart Sidebar on Realme Phones

Smart Sidebar is a floating panel that gives you one-tap access to your favorite apps and tools without leaving what you are doing. It sits at the edge of the screen and pulls out over almost any app, including games. Understanding how it works helps you multitask faster and skip unnecessary app switching.

Display & Home Screen

Show or Hide Status Bar Icons

A status bar packed with icons for Bluetooth, alarm, NFC, and mobile data can bury the one piece of information you actually need. On many Realme phones several of these icons stay switched on by default even if you barely use the connection behind them. The status icons menu lets you turn each icon on or off on its own instead of living with a crowded display.

Battery & Power

Optimize Battery Consumption

If your Realme phone drains faster than expected and you cannot pinpoint which app or setting is responsible, checking each menu manually takes too long. Realme UI can scan system and app behavior on its own and return a list of tailored suggestions to extend battery life. You choose which suggestions to apply, so background tasks you rely on stay untouched.

Calls & Messages

Show or Hide Caller ID

Outgoing calls from your Realme phone sometimes show your number when you wanted privacy, or the other side sees 'Unknown caller' when you actually wanted to be reachable by name. This behavior depends on a caller ID option tied to your SIM card rather than one global switch. Dual-SIM users often notice each card acts differently until both are configured separately.

Open
Display & Home Screen

Rename a Folder

New folders on your Realme home screen get generic names like 'Social Networks' or 'Lifestyle', assigned automatically based on the apps you drop inside them. If you sort apps by your own logic - projects, moods, or daily routines - these auto-generated labels stop making sense fast. Renaming lets you turn any folder into something that actually matches how you use your phone.

Open
Network & Connectivity

Share Wi-Fi Password via QR Code

Reading out a long Wi-Fi password letter by letter to a guest wastes time and often ends in a typo on their end. Realme UI can turn the password of the network your phone is currently connected to into a scannable QR code, so any other phone with a camera joins in seconds. This only works for the active connection, not for networks that are merely saved on your phone.

Calls & Messages

Turn On/Off Caller ID Announcement

If your Realme phone keeps reading out caller names or numbers even when you are not using a headset, or stays silent when you actually want that announcement while driving, the Caller ID announcement setting is likely set to the wrong option. This feature can read the saved contact name or the raw phone number aloud for every incoming call. Getting the option wrong means either constant interruptions or missing an announcement you actually need.

Eye Comfort Schedule Setup

If eye comfort mode on your Realme phone only kicks in when you remember to tap the toggle, screen strain creeps back in during evening reading sessions. The feature filters blue light and cooler tones, but without a fixed schedule it depends entirely on manual activation at the right moment. A defined start and end time keeps the warmer color tone active exactly when you need it, without you thinking about it.

Open
Network & Connectivity

Turn Bluetooth On or Off

When your realme phone will not connect to headphones, earbuds or a speaker, Bluetooth is often still switched off in the background. The toggle can hide either in the quick settings panel or deep inside the connection settings, and a disabled radio module also blocks any pairing attempt.

Stay on Lock Screen After Face Unlock

On Realme phones, pressing the power button often unlocks the device straight to the home screen as soon as your face is recognized, so the lock screen never actually shows up. That skips past notifications, widgets, and other lock screen info you might still want to glance at. Realme UI has a separate screen unlock setting that decides whether recognition unlocks the phone immediately or just wakes the display for a swipe.

Language & Input

Delete Learned Words and Keyboard Data

If your Realme keyboard keeps suggesting typos, old names, or words you typed by accident, its learned dictionary has picked up too much noise. Gboard builds this dictionary from everything you type, so autocorrect and predictions start feeling off after a while. Clearing that stored data resets suggestions back to normal without affecting your other settings.

Open
Network & Connectivity

Change SIM PIN

A new SIM card usually ships with a default PIN chosen by your carrier, and that code is rarely one you would pick yourself. On Realme phones this PIN lives in the Security settings, completely separate from your screen lock or device password. Keeping the default in place makes it easier for anyone who gets hold of your SIM to guess it.

Open
Notifications & Focus

Volume & Sound Controls

Realme phones split sound into several independent channels: media, ringtone, notification, alarm and call volume. This area explains how those channels interact with each other and with silent, vibrate and focus modes, so you stop guessing why one slider changes and another stays the same.

Security & Privacy

Reset Advertising ID

If ads on your Realme phone still feel oddly specific even after you cleared your browser history, the tracking is happening through a device-level advertising ID, not your browser. This identifier links your app activity and search behavior across services until it gets reset. Resetting it breaks that link and starts a fresh, anonymous tracking profile.

Open
Notifications & Focus

Allow Repeated Calls Through Do Not Disturb

When Do Not Disturb is active on a Realme phone, even urgent second calls from the same number can get silenced along with everything else. This makes it hard to tell a routine call apart from someone trying to reach you again because of an emergency. Realme UI has a dedicated exception for this, but it is easy to miss if you only check the contact-based Do Not Disturb settings.

Calls & Messages

Turn On/Off Call Barring

If unwanted international calls keep coming through or you need to block outgoing calls on a shared or work SIM, call barring lets you restrict specific call types on your Realme phone. On Dual SIM devices the restriction only applies to the SIM you configure, not both cards at once. Getting the wrong option turned on can also block calls you actually need, such as roaming while traveling.
