Different Android vendors may modify the quick settings. So, the interface and feature of quick settings on different Android Lollipop devices may vary. But the fundamentals are usually very similar.

Update 1: You can customize quick settings panel in Android Marshmallow through system UI tuner.

Update 2: In Android Nougat, you can customize quick settings panel directly as explained in this guide. In addition, there is also a quick settings bar in the top of notification shade as well.

5) Can you access and use quick settings in Android Lollipop now?

What is quick settings in Android Lollipop?

Android have so many features, so the settings menu usually is very long. If you need change something, you usually have to navigate through several pages.

Therefore Android puts a few most-commonly used settings in the quick settings page so that you can quickly change the settings without fiddling around pages of the settings.

Google made a significant change in quick settings in Android Lollipop.  Prior to Android Lollipop, quick settings simply are shortcuts to specific settings.

But in Android Lollipop, most items in quick settings menu are actionable. In other words, you can enable or disable the features just by tapping top part of it.  It is not necessary to open any settings pages. The lower part of each item may link to corresponding settings page.

This is new for Nexus devices and Motorola devices (e.g., Moto X, Moto G  and Moto E).

If you are a Samsung Galaxy phone user, you have enjoyed this feature for long time thanks for the customization by Samsung. Actually, Samsung put so many items in the quick settings panel that some new users may feel intimidating. For example, you can find Galaxy S5 quick settings panel here.

In short, quick settings in Android Lollipop makes it possible for you to change some frequently used features without navigating to settings app.

How to access quick settings in Android Lollipop?

You have two ways to access  quick settings in Android Lollipop.

Method 1: Swiping down from status bar (top of the screen) with 2 fingers.

From the status bar (the top of your device screen), you can swipe down with two fingers as shown below to get quick settings in Android Lollipop.

This method works on ALL android devices regardless of the brand or manufacture. It also works on Android KitKat, Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwitch.

How_to_use_quick_settings_in_Android_Lollipop_swipe_two_fingers

Method 2:  Swiping down twice from status bar (top of the screen) with 1 finger.

From status bar, if you swipe down with one finger, you will see all notification messages.

In Android Lollipop, you can swipe down again in notification page to access quick settings as shown below.

This method of accessing  quick settings in Android Lollipop is new. In prior versions, you have to tap a button in notification page to access quick settings panel.

How to use quick settings in Android Lollipop?

Depending on features which you turned on, the items in quick settings can be different.

As shown in the screenshot above, you can find these settings (corresponding to the numbers in the screenshot).

  1. Settings icon.  Tapping this icon will open Settings app.
  2. Users. Tapping the user avatar to use the user control panel, change users, guests, and profiles. You can also setup your own profile here.
  3. Brightness control. Dragging the slider to adjust the brightness of the screen. This can be sued together with Adaptive brightness in Android Lollipop.
  4. WiFi control. Tapping the icon (top part) will turn on/off WiFi instantly.  Tapping the network name (or WiFi if not connected) in the lower part will bring you to WiFi settings page.
  5. Bluetooth control. Similar to WiFi control, the top part is for you to turn on/off Bluetooth. Tapping the name of connected Bluetooth device (or Bluetooth if no connected device) will bring you to the Bluetooth settings page.
  6. Cellular network info. Tapping the icon to open the cellular control panel for quick access to data usage information.
  7. Airplane mode control. Tapping the icon to turn on/off Airplane mode.
  8. Flashlight control. Tapping the icon to turn on/off flashlight.
  9. Location settings. Taping the icon to open location settings page.
  10. Cast screen.  Tapping the icon to cast your phone screen to Chromecast (aka Android screen casting, Android screen mirroring). This icon only works on Nexus devices. In Moto X (including Moto X 2nd Gen), Moto G (including Moto G 2nd Gen) and Moto E, this icon does NOT work. You need use Chromecast app to cast your screen.

If you tuned on some other features, you may find a few additional other items.

Update: How to customize quick settings panel?

You may wonder whether you can customize quick settings panel.

The answer is yes. But in Android Marshmallow or Android Nougat or later versions only. You cannot customize quick settings panel in Lollipop.

In Android Marshmallow, you can customize quick settings panel through the hidden system UI tuner.

In Android Nougat, you can customize quick settings panel directly as explained in this guide. In addition, there is also a quick settings bar in the top of notification shade as well.

      No, you cannot toggle on/off quick connection and s finder on galaxy s6. But in some regions, some carriers may remove them.

      The carrier removed quick settings and s finder from notification panel in the android lollipop update.

      Some owners want to find ways to remove them; and some are missing them once removed by some carriers.
      Anyway, users have no control over whether quick settings and s finder should appear there.

          if quick setting is missing, or you do not get notification panel at all, it means the Marshmallow update was stopped prematurely. You should backup your data and files, then try a factory data reset.

    I recently updated to Android 5.0 on AT&T Galaxy S5 but my notification panel is different than the one you showed in this article. I can access quick settings by pulling down the notification panel, then clicking on settings. If I use two fingers to swipe down the toggles pop up like yours but swiping down then swiping down again does nothing…. is it my phone??

      Samsung didn’t implement some lollipop features in the galaxy s5 lollipop update. Notification panel/ quick settings panel, priority notification, guest user, multiple user are some examples of missed lollipop features in galaxy s5. Even galaxy s6 don’t have these features as well. https://gadgetguideonline.com/galaxys6/top-6-samsung-galaxy-s6-defects/

    How to silence my device for a text message when it is locked? Before, my phone updated to lollipop, I could just pull the quick setting bar down and it would silence it. Now, I have to unlock my device and pull it down to silence a text message. I have a samsung s4. If this feature was taken out then please put it back in.

      Cast screen in quick settings is functional on nexus devices. On Moto E, you need use Chromecast app to mirror the screen to TV.

      For the flashlight, it could be due to the firmware for your region.

      Motorola removed the guest user and multi user support in lollipop 5.1.

      For mobile data, you can tap the network signal in quick settings. Moto G and nexus devices never use a separate button for mobile data. They use the network signal button in quick settings.

      Reboot the phone or use the camera flash once.

      You are not supposed to turn on/off mobile data so frequently.

      Anyway, if you think 2 taps are not convenient, you can install a widget. There are many in Play store. For example, Notification toggle.

        It’s Baloney telling people they should not turn mobile data off and on so frequently. Phone mfg’s are getting deals from service providers to make turning data off cumbersome and you saying it’s bad. All to drive up data usage for more $. Turn off data when ever you have decent wi-fi save your data for when you need it.

          When both WiFi and mobile data are available, WiFi is always used, not mobile data.

          It is your phone, it is up to you how to use it.

    I have a Moto G 1st Gen (2013) with Lollipop 5.1, the Cast screen icon dissapeared from Quick settings, I read that a quick settings icon dissapears when its function is not used for some time (like 30 days), is there a way (without the need to root your phone.) to re-enable it, so it shows again in quick settings?. I know that in the Moto G this icon does NOT work, I just want to know if make it appear again is possible somehow.

      The cast screen is for Nexus devices. On Moto G, you need install Chromecast app. Then you can find screen cast option in the app. Of course, you need a Chromecast device.

        I have a moto g and was successfully using the cast screen button in quick settings menu to cast via a Chromecast device. Now that the icon is gone I’m using the Chromecast app to do so, but the experience is much more choppy, particularly when casting video. Is there any way of getting the cast screen button back on the quick settings menu?

          I don’t think that cast screen button works in Moto G. It is for Nexus devices only. On Moto G, you have to use Chromecast app.

          Anyway, you can try to clear cache partition to see whether it helps. You may follow this guide to clear cache partition for moto g http://allaboutmotog.com/how-to-clear-cache-partition-on-moto-g-and-moto-x-after-android-lollipop-update/

            I tried clearing the cache partition but it didn’t bring back the cast screen button, maybe the only way to bring it back would be performing a factory reset :/ , or rooting the phone and doing some other stuff, like the one explained in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQaUmD06XRQ , maybe that would make the cast screen button to appear again. Thanks anyway.

      Do you mean two chopping motions? If yes, update Moto Action form Play store.

I tried Hard reseting it. Everything went fine untill the Android in distress logo. It showed ‘NO COMMAND’. As directed in the guide, I pressed the volume up key for 10-15 seconds and while holding it, pressed and released the power button. Nothing happened and i started freaking out. After a little time the M logo came and it booted. Now what do I do?

      It depends on phones. For stock Android with Google Now launcher, there are no options to turn quick settings off when the phone is locked. Motorola doesn’t modify this feature.

      Some vendors may modify this. For example, in Samsung phones, you cannot change the quick settings when the screen is locked.

      Very likely, the phone doesn’t have this feature. For phones with limited resources, it’s impractical to use this feature.

      It’s better to use parent control apps for kids phone. For example, dinnertime plus is a good one.

      For Geo news app, it’s very likely installed by your carrier/ location distributor. You can disable it in application manager (next to force stop).

      For S finder, you cannot disable it. But you can force stop it, then clear cache and clear data. This will reset S Finder. It should not then consume battery. If you cannot find S Finder in application manager, you can tap More buttons, then tap Show system apps.
