## Android Tablet Tips / Tricks
An important note: the settings dialog may be too big horizontally for a small android tablet screen. You can drag the top of the window to move it left/right/up/down to access the full window. This is especially important on Samsung Z Fold devices.
On a small tablet it can be wise to use the full screen canvas view and pop-up palette. This allows you to use the whole screen with your stylus and easily access different brushes and recently used colors. Note: the pop-up palette will show your favorite brushes by default and which brushes it shows, as well as how many to show, can be configured within the main Krita settings.
### General Settings
^0f3b48
- general
- window
- disable HiDPI support
- tools
- tool options location: in toolbar
- disable 'enable touch painting'
- misc (when krita starts)
- show session manager
- save session on exit
- canvas input settings (use a non default profile / see above for saving fix)

### Things to consider
- bug fix input profile settings: [https://krita-artists.org/t/cannot-save-input-profile-does-not-persist-on-startup-on-android/55693/4](https://krita-artists.org/t/cannot-save-input-profile-does-not-persist-on-startup-on-android/55693/4)
- s pen click button is mouse middle click on galaxy fold devices
- pop up palatte _is_ quick settings (like sketchbook puck)
- gestures in the config can likely do brush size up/dn and undo/redo
- can tune brush settings shown via the pop up palatte ui
- go through favorite brushes and set up to 10 ; these will show on the popup palatte
- use portrait mode when editing brushes ; you need the height to see everything and you can use the top of the pop-up window to move it left/right for full access
### External storage resources folder on Android
- export/prep everything you want to keep (reuse desktop default resources dir if desired)
- settings -> resources
- use the ICON that pops the android folder selector
- select the folder you want to use and grant storage permissions to it
- save settings & quit krita
- force stop krita in app settings
- (ONLY IF REIMPORTING EXPORTS) - relaunch krita and import data
- copy the resources dir you want to use to the selected folder
- launch krita. this _will_ take awhile and may look like its frozen
- clear any warnings/errors
- quit krita
- force stop krita
- relaunch and enjoy
