Since Android 4.0, the developer options have disappeared from Android settings.

Actually, they have not really "disappeared", they have just been hidden to avoid to display them for some users who would not have any usefulness in it and who could be afraid to do an error.

To enable them again, the steps to follow are really simple:

1. Go in the **General settings** of Android
2. Under **System** section, open the **About Phone** menu
3. Tap 7 times on the **Build Number** (you will see a nice message displayed)
4. The developer options are now unlocked

You can now use the developer options and use them for development and perform some applications debugging. Enjoy ;) !
