SWIPE FROM THE SIDES AND BOTTOM
If you love swiping through your phone, take advantage of the additional features called āSwipe from sides or bottom.ā As the name suggests, this lets you navigate your phone by swiping sideways or from the bottom of the screen.
Tap More options under Full screen gestures, and then choose the new option for Swipe from the sides and bottom. Here is what you can do with the controls:
- To go back to a previous page, swipe left or right on the edges of the screen.
- To view your recent apps, simply swipe up and hold.
- Swipe up to open the Home screen, and swipe inward from the bottom corners to open your device assistance app.
Selecting Swipe from sides and bottom will bring up custom options. Tap the switch next to Allow back gesture on keyboard to use the Back arrow function when typing on a keyboard.
Move the slider to adjust the back gesture sensitivity. If you have a case on your phone, consider using a higher sensitivity, as the edges of the screen might be difficult to touch.
Enjoy the seamless navigation nowā
