Is there a way that by tapping the fingerprint reader at any app i go to the homescreen?
I know the sweeping gesture to open the notifications.
Have you tried a remapping app?

A magisk module for this will be great!! Maybe @Tulsadiver know a way
With how often I hit the sensor by accident, Id imagine it to be an annoyance. Just the like the sensor gesture that would expand/close the notification screen. Just some UX input.

I use Google Voice all the time and it sure would be nice to have it at my finger tips instead of digging in my apps, everytime I want to use it. Is there a simple remap app?

In the settings for Gear Manager you can choose the app that is assigned to the double press shortcut. If you're on null rom you'll need to revert the home button remapping so instead of a lock button it is a home button again. You can't manually sleep the screen when you do this however. To get around that I put GMD gesture control on the watch to add a swipe in gesture to the right side to sleep the watch (also have a swipe in from left for back and swipe from bottom for home). If you've added any apps to the watch after setting it up they won't show in Gear Manager. To get them to show up in GM you need to delete the file /data/data/com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager/files/wapplist.xml and reboot your phone. Personally I used tasker on my watch for music controls. I then export those tasks as apps and delete that file so they show up in GM. I also installed the regular version of Gravity Box so I could map long press of the button to another app. Hope that points you in the right direction.

Note that there is a feature in GravityBox under status bar tweaks where you can enable sleep on double tap of the status bar. I use this, and it works great!
That way, you can avoid using more precious storage space for an app (like GMD) to provide the same function.

I like having the swipe up go to a specific home screen with my clock on it via a tasker task exported to an app.

Hi guys! Would anybody know if we can remap the gestures of our Fingerprint sensor?
I mean it already supports swipe down to open the Notification Bar, so can we somehow map it to be a hlme button on press, and maybe back button on left/right swipe?
I know it might be a novelty feature, but it wouldn't it be cool if we can do that?

Tried it, and it works!
I hope it would have supported side swipe, but it doesn't. Is it a hardware limitation perhaps?
Samsung allows the fingerprint sensor to be remapped for the notifications drawer, both gestures swiping down and up. Can this be remapped to something else say scrolling thru the screen/app/webpages?
I was wondering the same thing. A feature like that would make a lot of sense.
Good day! I'm curious if the fingerprint scanner defaults as the home button when on-screen navigation bar is enables?
I'm on VTR-L29C636B171 right now and I did not notice this on VTR-L29C636B166
I'm on B171 of the dual sim model and for me the fingerprint reader is completely disabled and acts just like a fingerprint reader. However I have noticed that the reader acts like a home button when the screen is off and password/pin disabled.
The sensor is P10s biggest feature besides the camera but it works only as Homebutton when the Navbar is disabled...but why would someone enable the Navbar when the sensor works so awesomely perfect?

One tap takes you one step back, long tap takes you to home screen and a swipe to left or right gives you multi tasking option. Hope that helps

Hi,
I have a short question - is it possible to customize fingerprint scanner gestures in the P10? Is there a mod or something to do that? I can't stand current selection, single tap should always be 'home'. My perfect set of gestures would look like this:
single tap - 'home'
swipe left - 'back'
swipe right (or up) - 'multitasking/recent apps'
swipe down - pull down the shortcut panel
tap and hold for 0,5 sec - screen off
double tap - toggle between recently used apps (P8 had this! Even bare bones Android has such function)
Give Tasker a try. I don't know, if it's working and if it won't make problems with the EMUI settings, but you can give it a try.
I have to say, that a swipe for everytime I want to go back would be very annoying. I was 9 years on iPhone before I got my P10 and had to get use to it, but know it's like an automatism.
Not going 'home' after tapping the "home" button is much more annoying. Besides the 'back' button is usually on the left side so swiping left is the closest thing.
I asked on the Tasker forums and one of the users said that it requires TouchTask plugin (for Tasker). We'll see.
Were you able to customize the gestures? Did tasker work? I don't use Google app (disabled it) and think there should be a remap feature... Should not be that hard to do...
