Samsung, India’s most trusted and desired smartphone brand, has launched a new ‘Make for India’ innovation called AltZLife that will further enhance your smartphone privacy level.

The feature has been developed following deep consumer insights that smartphone users are seeking greater privacy, as they transition into an enhanced digital life using their mobile devices.

Samsung smartphone users can quickly and easily switch between normal mode and private mode (Secure Folder) by simply double clicking on the power key. The on-device AI function also intelligently suggests moving private content to the Secure Folder.

The AltZLife feature will be available to existing as well as new users of Galaxy A71 and Galaxy A51 through a software update on August 10, 2020.

“An industry first innovation, this intelligent feature has been designed keeping in mind the inherent need of consumers, especially Gen Z, for enhanced privacy when it comes to storage and access of content on their smartphones. This helps eliminate the anxiety that consumers usually face while also sharing their smartphones with someone,” Manu Sharma, Senior Director, Mobile Business, Samsung India, said.

According to a research conducted by Samsung, 79% of Gen Z consumers admit to having content such as images, applications and private chats on their smartphones that they do not want family or others to see. In addition to this, they also want to hide the fact that they have things they do not want to share.

The two ‘Make for India’ solutions that are part of AltZLife – Quick Switch and Content Suggestions – have been developed by a team of young engineers at Samsung R&D Institutes in Bangalore and Noida using insights from consumer research.

As part of Samsung’s ‘Make for India’ initiative, Samsung R&D centres in the country work on India-centric innovations based on deep consumer insights.

Samsung had launched other AI-based ‘Make for India’ features on Galaxy A series devices earlier this year. This includes Alive Intelligence, which offers Multilingual Keyboard, Smart Crop, Useful Cards and Finder. AltZLife takes the endeavor forward to make the consumer’s interaction with their Galaxy A series more intelligent, intuitive and secure.

How does AltZLife work?

AltZLife comes with two features—Quick Switch and Content Suggestions—which help provide a private and secured experience to consumers. The on-device AI solution allows all processing to take place within the device, and does not require interaction with any server or cloud.

Quick Switch

Our research shows consumers tend to have some aspects of their digital life—private and public—which they like to keep discrete and separate from each other. Quick Switch helps users in switching between two instances of the same app instantly – one instance in normal mode and the other in private mode. For example, a consumer can easily move between the normal Gallery and a private Gallery; or from a normal WhatsApp to private WhatsApp with a simple double click of the power button. The private versions of these apps are secured by Samsung Knox in the Secure Folder of Galaxy smartphones.

When a user double clicks on the power button in normal mode, authentication is required before entering the private mode of the same app. This authentication is different from normal unlocking of the smartphone. When switching from private to normal mode, no authentication is required. Quick Switch is also useful even if the application does not have dual instances in private and normal mode.

Content Suggestions

Content Suggestions is an AI-based app inside the Secure Folder, and its on-device AI-powered engine automatically suggests users to move private images of pre-selected categories to the Secure Folder. For this to happen users have to simply select specific faces or a type of image they want to tag as private and keep them secured in the private gallery of the Secure Folder.

Once the initial setup is complete, the AI engine kicks in and identifies relevant images from the entire gallery. As this is an on-device AI solution, no information or image ever leaves the smartphone.

The consumer focus is shifting towards refrigerators that offer convenience, more storage space and energy efficiency. We are partnering with Flipkart and Amazon this summer to offer exciting Samsung Delight Offers on our Global Number 1 Frost Free refrigerators that are designed for Indian homes,” said Piyush Kunnapallil, Director – Online Business, Consumer Electronics, Samsung India.

Features of Samsung’s Frost Free Refrigerator Range

Curd Maestro: Innovation for Everyday Home

Curd Maestro refrigerator transcends the conventional refrigerator landscape in India beyond food storage and food preservation. Curd Maestro addresses the problems of curd making which are complex, time taking, and tricky.

Curd Maestro refrigerator ensures that nothing comes in the way of you and your precious family time, enabling curd preparation in five to six hours — five hours for soft curd, six hours for thick curd. One needs to boil and cool the milk and mix the curd culture manually while Curd Maestro does the most crucial part of the job — fermentation. It will not only ferment the curd but will store it too.

Curd Maestro makes curd with the same consistency each time and eliminates all the hassle of curd making in different weather conditions.

Smart Convertible Refrigerators

Smart Convertible 5 in 1 Twin Cooling refrigerators come with five modes — Normal, Extra Shopping, Vacation, Seasonal, and Home Alone. The conversion modes are not only the perfect solution to different storage needs but every mode also saves energy. Twin Cooling Plus is a truly independent cooling system, with separate airflows in both the fridge and freezer, preventing unpleasant smells from foods moving between the fridge and freezer.

The Normal mode enables optimal cooling both in the fridge and the freezer that helps getting ice faster. Extra Shopping mode comes with an added convenient feature that turns the freezer into the fridge to provide more space. Seasonal Mode & Vacation Mode give an option to turn off the freezer for seasonal requirements. Also, the usage of the freezer can be continued while you are travelling, by keeping your freezer on even when the fridge is switched off. Home Alone Mode lets users switch off the fridge space and use the freezer as a mini fridge.

Frost Free Refrigerator with Base Stand Drawer

The latest Samsung Frost Free refrigerators have been uniquely designed for Indian homes to offer extra capacity. Consumers can now store non-perishable vegetables in the Base Stand Drawer. This drawer gives the refrigerator a tall boy design preferred by Indian consumers. Now you can keep your vegetables, such as onions and potatoes at room temperature with ease without worrying about using extra baskets or wasting kitchen space.

New Design Patterns

Catering to the need for varied designs and patterns, the line-up will be available in new design patterns that add to the aesthetic value of the products.
