But you might not know that Google itself keeps a few settings tucked away in a hidden menu called the System UI Tuner.
It's not available on every device - you'll have less luck if yours has a heavy UI skin - but it's worth checking out to see which features might be coming to future Android versions. Some of the features it brought to last year's Android 6.0 Marshmallow update - where it was first introduced - are now standard with Android 7.0 Nougat.
Here's how to access the System UI Tuner, and a quick rundown of what it can do with Android 7.0.
