I've been using a OnePlus 6T and Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 regularly and have become very much so used to swiping to go home, back, recents, etc. In fact, picking up my old Pixel 2 XL feels like a step back in terms of usage.
I understand there are apps that can mimic the gestures, but they aren't always 100% and can sometimes cause issues (Fluid N.G. definitely doesn't work 100% of the time and can be clunky feeling). The native gestures found on OnePlus, Xiaomi, Huawei, all feel great since they were made for the device and what not.
Based on every bit of footage I've seen thus far on the Galaxy S10/S10+, there are navigation buttons by default. Does anyone know if Samsung has made any gesture navigation to use instead of the buttons? I never thought I'd get used to using gestures but now I can't go back.
Cheers!
Yep Samsung does. Slightly different then others, but basically swipe up on left side to go back, swipe up middle for home, and swipe up on right side to go to recent apps. That is provided you have the navigation orientation the way it's supposed to be with back button on left and recents on right. Swipe up and hold middle for Google assistant

Personally I am not a fan of the Samsung gestures and 3 swipe zones can be complicated if you use different hands at times. It is one of the cons I am considering for getting the S10 as I would have to install fluid if I got one
you can completely hide navigations buttons in android pie - samsung - and use gesture (swipe left, right up down)
i am using them and it was difficult at first and i still get the random misfire but is better as you get 100% screen no button bars
you can find this option in settings
GMD gesture control does this and much more. I use it for years.

That's true, yes.
On the play store there is an app called edge gestures and there's also one made by Francisco named fluid ng. Both are very good.
as for Samsung gestures you can get a good preview on how it works here. https://youtu.be/KptBndWmvqY

Are the Samsung gestures always on by default or one can turn them off?

I second that Fluid NG is a great piece of work. Kudos to the dev.

No, it's stock button layout. You can enable the gestures if you so choose.
Talking about gesture, anyone know how to activate/how works the gesture to close an app?
I can see it on a few videos but can't replicate it for some reason? Are we suppose to swipe up a few times?

You just swipe from the middle once.

Do you need to activate it?
I'm not talking about the bottom swipe, I'm talking about apparently anywhere on the screen swipe.
i switched from iphone x to s10
and am using the samsung gestures + FluidNG , but limited the Fluid Gestures to only back from left and right parts of the screen the same as i do with the iphone , so now everything is good without the need for ROOT etc..
Try the Good Lock app from Samsung Galaxy Store. The app gathers all the enhancement software from Samsung in it. The one hand operation + uses gesture and is configurable.
Hi there,
Is there anyway to use the OnePlus feature of swiping anywhere on Screen and bringing the notification tray down?
I have a gesture app installed but it's not working well and you have to swipe to the right.
What about the xda gesture app?
Thanks
If you install Nova launcher you'll have that feature on your home screen
I have it. Do I need the pro version?
Thankd

I have been able to swipe down anywhere on the screen to bring down the panel from start. I use the standard launcher, the Space walk theme and full screen gestures and no buttons.
Wake up works fine but i can't lock my phone with double tap. Any advice? Thanks!

Hey! Same phone,stock theme..don't work double tap to sleep for me neither
I think it's not meant to lock the screen, it's meant to wake the off-screen to Lock screen and opposite.
Or don't you write about the option in the ,AOD' menu of preferences?

I think it's not meant to lock the screen, it's meant to wake up the off-screen to lockscreen (or if the '10 second AOD' is on) and opposite, to turn off the screen from lockscreen with double tab. That's what working for me.

Yes it's under the AOD menu. Maybe you are right, the double tap works on the lock screen both ways. Coming from an LG phone and so used to double tap to lock I do it automatically and missing it.
Thank You
Not for the homescreen, just the lockscreen. Maybe xiaomi devs will implement in the future who knows.
if you use another launcher it work perfect both wake and sleep (olauncher, lawnchair,... etc). double tap to turn off screen only work on lockscren and it is happen on all xiami device i think. alternately you can set shortcut on navigation bar by long press on home/menu/back button to turn off screen.
Go to setting-Home screen-system navigation-Button shortcuts

Thanks, my search bar couldn't find it, cause I looked for something with "double" but the term is "2x tab..."
If you want t2s on your homescreen. Just install poco launcher
It works only on lockscreen not on homescreen. You can add lockscreen widget on your homescreen.
this was a major issue for me with miui......
so I made a cool trick.
download one tap lock software from play store, then from gestures option of your launcher ( i am using smart Launcher, you may use nova or whatever you want) , select double tap > open app > one tap lock ( the one we downloaded earlier).........
now you will not feel this issue anymore and this is a bypass for this bug.......
double tap to lock doesnt work on stock launcher well it works from lockscreen , thats the reason i switched to different launcher but lost the gestures which were pretty cool full screen
When I use a launcher, the double-tap to lock works, but the navigation gesture doesn't.
Does anybody else have this problem too?
I have a redmi note 10.
MIUI 12
Android 11.

Open app drawer, there click on the 3 uneven lines on the top right corner to open the settings. Scroll through and there's an option to enable double tap to sleep.
Seems like that the functionality in the settings menu is only working from lockcreen and not on launcher...
Is there a way (preferably with the stock launcher) to do it? many apps break the lock screen/fingerprint...
I'am on miui 12 global, all stock: got the phone yesterday from offiial MI store Italy...
I assigned a long press on the Home button to turn off the screen.
Search settings for assignable button functions.
Vai in Impostazioni Aggiuntive - Collegamento tasti.

Here on the Mi Note 10 (I'm waiting for my Mi 11 Ultra to arrive) it doesn't work either (for after the last update). And gestures also don’t work on other launchers (only in stock).
I simply have a widget on the home that locks the screen when pressed. Look in the widgets, you'll find it. Not the best solution but it works.
When you get to 12.5.4/5/6 the double tap to lock screen works flawlessly
Not working for me in 12.5.6

Xiaomi decided to implement full gestures only in stock launcher not in system UI and not in poco launcher within Android 11
Workarounds:
Install from GooglePlayStore:
Infinity Gestures
Fluid Navigation Gestures
Use CustoMIUIzer
Laucher -> Gestures -> there you have a lot of options

I heard about that, but for once I wanted to stay with stock launcher, annoyed too much in the past with nova launcher on NOT rooted phones ( on root phone was great )

My Fluid Navigation gestures app dies after a while.
As in the gestures stop working (After a few minutes, or after a reboot), so had to switch to Edge Gestures.
Had Autostart enabled, Battery features disabled etc..
But didnt help. Is there anything additional that you did ?
Double tap works fine for Mi 11 Pro on 12.5.7 (same firmware) did not know it was available until I went through the settings again.

Weird I couldn't get it to work, I was double tapping on an empty space in home screen and it never worked except the lock screen.

It had stopped here once, then I put it in the control center (status bar), left it without the battery saving restriction and activated the automatic start. After that it hasn't stopped yet.
I've searched everywhere so far to bring the notification slider to the bottom, but no option is available.
Second thing, the option of the clock in the lock screen is missing called double line, so the clock is not so big.
Anyone knows how can we achieve them over root, any magisk module?
Or double line clock on lock screen?
Simply don't root your phone

It's not related to root, in my case it's a feature on Android 12L where Android 12 don't have it, I hope they bring it to Android 13, every pixel phone has the option to chose for the brightness slider to be at first swipe and on the bottom or no, and the option to pick btw big and small clock.
