October 1, 2014 at 6:47 pm Leave a comment

If you are developing Android apps, you will want to test them on an actual device. In order to do this you need to enable Developer Mode on your phone or tablet. Here are the steps to do this:

Open settings
Go to About Phone or (About Tablet)
Scroll down to Build Number and click on it 7 times
(Yes, that sounds strange, but that’s what you do.)
Now go back up to your settings list and you will see that Developer Options has been enabled.

I’ve attached a video so you can see how this is done.
