Picture the settings app and the pages you open to change how the handset behaves: sound, screen, calls, battery, privacy, and accessibility each carry their own rows of switches. Any named setting a user can turn on or off counts so long as it is a real toggle; hardware with no switch, app content, and entire menus do not.

How to approach it

Work through the settings tree in your head rather than reaching for the first obvious switch. Take each top-level page in turn, covering sound, display, connection, calls, battery, privacy and accessibility, and ask what the device lets you turn off there. Then push one level deeper: sub-pages usually hold several separate switches, and the labels are often narrow and slightly awkward, which is exactly what makes them good answers. Write the label as it appears on screen instead of paraphrasing, and keep a long list before judging any of them. Volume matters more than polish here, because the pool of accepted entries is enormous and the scoring barely separates a plain toggle from an exotic one.

Get a hint

Start from the settings app itself and walk the top-level list: nearly every row you can enter hides at least one control that changes how the device behaves from that moment on.

A little more

Move into the sub-menus that govern senses and signals, meaning how the phone sounds, vibrates, lights up, connects, or reacts to touch, because those pages are dense with individual on and off controls.

One step further

Think of the narrow, oddly named switches buried two or three levels deep, the ones that govern a single behaviour such as a call-handling quirk, a photo-taking habit, or an accessibility aid, rather than the headline features.

Why these answers count

Out of 2030 recorded answers, the shape of the distribution is the story: 1719 sat in the 85-point band, 261 dropped to 60, and just one reached 100. That tells you the graders accepted almost anything that is genuinely a toggle on a modern handset, so the game was not about guessing a secret, it was about how precisely you described the switch. Entries such as Adaptive Audio (85), Bounce Keys (85), Call Barring (85) and Auto-Redial (85) share a pattern: each names one narrow, real behaviour rather than a whole feature area, and each could be read straight off a settings screen. The single 100, Chop for Flashlight (100), shows the payoff for a distinctive, oddly phrased control that few other players would think to write down. The 60-point tail is where vaguer or broader phrasings landed. Rarity still drives the ceiling: two thousand people can name a common toggle, but only one thought of that gesture.
