1 | Game Booster Plus

Game Booster Plus allows you to determine some priorities when you play games on your Samsung phones or tablets. 

Basically, there are six different options you can prioritize while you play games which are Auto Mode, Battery Saving, Balance, Max FPS, High Quality, and Custom. As the names suggest, Auto Mode applies the best mode automatically based on analysis of your gameplay data, Battery Saving applies the best mode automatically to save battery, Balance prioritizes a balance between all options, Max FPS applies the best mode to get the most FPS of the phone or tablet games and High Quality prioritize the graphic quality on the games.

Custom allows you to set the range for each particular option. By tapping on the gear or settings icon next to Custom, you can set the range for each option. Under the Performance Options, you can choose whether to focus on power saving, performance, or a balance performance of both power saving and performance while you play games. Under Graphics Quality, you can choose the quality of games with the help of the range slider which ranges from 30% to 100%. Under Max FPS, you can determine with the help of the range slider whether to get Max FPS or Min FPS while you play games. Under Brightness, you can set a brightness percentage with the help of the range slider. Keep in mind that, you should turn off adaptive or auto brightness to set brightness for all or particular games on your Samsung phones or tablets

If you do not know how to turn off adaptive brightness on your Samsung device, you may look at the relevant article by clicking or tapping on the following text: "How to Turn On / Off Adaptive (Auto) Brightness on Samsung Phones and Tablets".

After you determine all the settings for Custom Mode, you should tap on the "Back <" symbol next to the Custom Mode title and ultimately tap on "Apply" to change the game settings for a particular game or all games on your Samsung device.

With the FPS button that has a small down arrow next to it, you can see five different statistics which are FPS, CPU, GPU, Temperature, and Battery Usage. The graph below will change based on the data chosen. The graph's color may vary according to the game mode you selected for the particular or all games on your Samsung device.

2 | Aim Assist

Once Aim Assist is enabled, it creates an aim shape in the middle of the screen which allows Samsung users to aim opponents in the games with ease. However, it only works well for shooting games, so the feature might not work as intended in other types of games which is to say in other types of games, the aim symbol aims at your own character rather than the opponent's.
