If you have an Android Mobile Phone and you want to enable the "Developers Option" options which is hidden by default, then follow the below steps.
- Unlock your Android Phone and go to the Settings app.
- Now go to the About phone (or About based on your device manufacturer)
- Now we need to reach the Build number, this varies hugely based on your device type.
Android Phone Manufacturer Steps to access "Build Number" Google Pixel Settings > About phone > Build number Samsung Settings > About phone > Software information > Build number (Galaxy S8 and later) LG Settings > About phone > Software info > Build number (G6 and later) HTC Settings > About > Software information > More > Build number (U11 and later) or
Settings > System > About phone > Software information > More > Build numberOnePlus Settings > About phone > Build number (5T and later) Motorola Settings > About phone > Software information > Build number Sony Settings > About phone > Build number or
Settings > System > About phone > Build numberXiaomi Settings > About phone > MIUI version Huawei Settings > About phone > Build number Oppo Settings > About phone > Version Vivo Settings > About phone > Software version Nokia Settings > About phone > Software information > Build number ASUS Settings > About phone > Software information > Build number - Once you reach "Build Number" you need to tap seven times on it until you see "You are now a developer!" (you will see toasts like "You are x steps aways from being a developer")
I am adding a list of links from various Android Phone Manufacturers on their official knowledge documentation on how to enable the Developer options below which you may find useful if having issues.
