What is the triangle icon with arrows that appears at the top of Samsung? If it has appeared on your mobile, you may think that it is a warning about something that is not working well, or an option that may require urgent action.
Although it could be a possibility, in this case it does not mean that your mobile is broken or that it will stop working if you do not perform a certain action, but it has to do with the configuration of your Samsung. We’ll tell you then.
What does the triangle icon with arrows means on Samsung?
In addition to the icons for WiFi or the battery level, more information is usually displayed at the top of the mobile screen, alerting the user when a configuration is activated on the mobile.
For example, when you activate Energy Saving, location, airplane mode, among other functions. This allows you to know just by seeing those icons that you have those functions or configuration settings activated on your mobile. But what does the triangle icon with arrows that usually appears on Samsung mean?
This icon is also related to a configuration option. Yes, as you see in the second image, when the triangle with dates appears at the top of the screen it means that you have Data Saving activated on your Samsung mobile.
An option that you will find in Mobile Settings >> Connections >> Data Usage >> Data Saving. It is an Android feature that allows you to save data by restricting the use of mobile data by apps that work in the background. This can be partial or total, depending on the dynamics of the app and the use you are giving it at the moment.
And if you are afraid that the “Data Saving” dynamic will affect an app that is relevant to you, don’t worry, you can set exceptions. Using the “Permission to use data in Data Saver” option you can indicate which apps should not have this restriction applied.
As you see in the image, you just have to activate the permission in the corresponding app within the list.
And of course, if you don’t want to use “Data Saver”, you can deactivate it at any time. Just follow the steps we mentioned before, go to the Connections section and look for “Data savings” in the “Data usage” tab. When you perform this action, you will see that the triangle icon with dates disappears from the screen of your Samsung mobile.
