There are many settings for notifications on your Samsung Galaxy S9 or Galaxy S9 Plus. This can vary from predefined ringtones to vibration patterns that many users don't know anything about.
In this article we will talk about a not so familiar feature, the flash notification. The function notifies you via the camera LED flash when events occur on your phone, such as a new SMS, WhatsApp message or even calls.
The flash lights on the camera LED on the back of your phone's housing glow in regular time windows when there is an unread notification.
