Pin windows
Pin windows allows you to pin an app to the screen and block
usage of all other functions of the phone including calling,
texting, and other frequently used apps. This feature is very
helpful if you want to lend your phone to another user, such as
a child, so that they can only use the pinned app. For example, if
you pin YouTube, it is the only function they will be able to use,
and all other functions of your phone are locked.
When you want to return to regular usage mode, hold the Back
and Recent Apps buttons at the same time for a few seconds. To
unpin an app, you may need the authorized user’s security PIN,
pattern, or password.
Permission manager

Settings > Privacy > Permission manager
Some apps, like the camera, microphone, or location services,
access features of your device when they are running in the
background and not just when you are using the app. You can
give or deny such access to each app and set your device to
notify you when this happens for each category you select.
WI-FI

Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi > On/Off
Wi-Fi is a term used for a wireless network technology that
provides wireless high-speed internet and network connections
without using the data allocated to your service plan. When
Wi-Fi is turned ON, your device automatically scans for available
networks and displays them. You may be required to enter a
password to connect.
When you select a public/unprotected network, you are
automatically connected to that network. Connecting to a public
Wi-Fi network can leave your personal data vulnerable, so it is
important that you connect to known, secure networks and set
up passwords as necessary.
Wi-Fi Direct
←
Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi > More (3 dots) > Wi-Fi Direct
This feature uses Wi-Fi capability to share data between Android
devices even if they are from different manufacturers. To
connect, both devices must have Wi-Fi Direct turned ON, but will
not need to be connected to a Wi-Fi network.
