Why Are You Not Using HotKnot Technology on Your Android Smartphone?

This is a feature almost every MTK smartphone have but only few actually make use of it. If you are using the likes of Infinix, you must have come across it but do you really use it?


Hot knot was developed in 2013 by a Chinese touchscreen designer Goodix, the brain behind the invisible Finger Print Detection. The technology allows the capacities touchscreens of smartphones to interact – a feature that can be used for quick data transfer/sharing, in a similar way to NFC.


When the two screens are near each other, their physics are used in such a way that allows one of them to act as a transmitter and the other one as a receiver.

What Can I Do With HotKnot Technology?
· Transfer and exchange photos and videos
· Sharing contact data: web addresses, phone contacts, social media contacts, etc.
· Sharing application data
· Facilitate mobile payments
· Exchange game moves
· Enable Bluetooth pairing, Wi-Fi connectivity and other services.


How Can I Use HotKnot Technology on my Phone?
To enable Hot Knot on your smartphone, go to Settings>Hot Knot. A question will appear on the screen “Allow data exchange when the screen touches another device?”. Once you toggle it on, Hot Knot will be enabled and once you have your phone’s screen close to another device’s screen, you will be able to perform data exchange.

Note: In order for the technology to work, the two phones need to come with Hot Knot technology and be in close proximity to each other (within at least one centimeter).

So why are you not using HotKnot features on your Android phone?
