I have searched about it a lot but couldn't find anything. Is there a way to fix recents app switcher animation on custom launcher. It's really annoying. Any method like using adb, etc?
I couldn't resolve with Nova but on Microsoft Launcher don't have the issue

Several times a day I had the error where swipe up gesture would get stuck showing the apps and the X and couldn't respond.
Changed to MS and don't have the issue.
I had it both with Nova as a fresh setup and restore from a backup, not sure what else to try to resolve it so changed launcher for now.

Was this the standard swipe up to open app drawer or a gesture you had assigned?

Standard swipe, only additional things I have is swipe up on folders to open certain apps so everything is based on EMUI gestures.

Strange. I use the exact same set up with no problems at all.
Do you use gestures it on screen buttons for your phones navigation?

I installed MS launcher still not fixed. I am talking about the animation when using gestures and using app switcher. It works fine on stock launcher but not on custom launcher.

Ah now I know what you're on about. Yes I get that sometimes, I just swipe back. It's hard to replicate and so infrequent I never put it down to just Nova even when I use Smart Launcher. I'll have to have a play then see if Kevin can't figure out the problem. Having said that in hoping to be on EMUI 10 soon. 7
Guys are you talking about something like this?
When i slide it for recent apps screen, right before showing apps preview, a plain white preview also shown.
So its seems like it flashes, not every time but mostly and its annoying. (There is video inside rar.)

Yes but also the animation of app switching. Like when you swipe for switching app, unlike in stock launcher where there is a transition to app switcher.

I think, i didnt notice the problem with swipe, but even if i disable Nova Launcher and return back Emui, i have still the problem that i mention.
Probably its not caused because of 3.party launcher at least in my case, something else causing that.
Hi guys,
I have a same Bug. I found temporary solution in dev mode. I had all animations to value "0". I changed it to 0,5 and Bug dissappear.
I read several days ago about how the pixel 4/4xl already allows third party launchers to use the native gestures.
I also read that you need to have gestures enabled in order to utilize the new google assistant.
My question is has anyone that has received their new pixel used nova launcher (my all-time fave), enabled native gestures and was able to utilize the new google assistant?
My new 4xl is on a truck for delivery today and I'm pretty excited.
I'm coming from the 3xl so I know it's not a huge upgrade, but I think there's enough to make me happy with the decision.
TIA
It seems that third party launchers aren't compatible with the native gestures. I prefer Nova Launcher as well, but when I use the native gestures to return home I get switched back to the stock launcher.
So what I've ended up doing is go with the button navigation and configured Fluid Navigation Gestures to mimic the default gesture behaviour and hide the button navigation bar. It's been working great so far and Assistant still seems to be working.
Well, that's disappointing.
I'm certainly not interested in a third party gestures app in addition to a third party launcher.
Hopefully nova can update their app so I can use the native gestures while utilizing the new google assistant.
The new assistant is supposed to be awesome, so if nova can't do it right now, I'll be forced to stick with the pixel launcher, which would also be a little disappointing but would be necessary as I value the new assistant more at this point.
Thanks for the response.

Yeah ideally I'd rather not have to install additional programs if I can avoid it, but there was a notice within the Nova Launcher app saying it's beyond their control.
Anyway, maybe things might change when you receive your phone so no harm trying out for yourself. At least the stock launcher is still pretty decent.

Google gestures work fine with nova. You just have to set nova or whatever launcher as your default launcher. It won't switch back to stock launcher on home swipe
So, have you actually done this and, more importantly, does the new assistant work with nova as your launcher?

Hmm...I stand corrected. Not sure why it didn't work when I tried earlier even though I specified Nova as my default, but thanks!
Thanks.
I know I did a duplicate post in the 4 and 4xl forums and appreciate the quick responses.
This is great news and I had not seen this particular question asked anywhere.
Good luck to all!

I tried to use Nova with the new gestures on my Pixel 3 but Nova said that they can't support the new gestures due to Google not making it compatible with 3rd party launchers. Didn't try it on my pixel 4.
Maybe I missed something, how did you get it to work?
I switched to Nova as default and it worked fine. However, the smooth new app animations do not work or look like the pixel launcher animations. System animation in Nova is just the slide.

I had to set it to 3 button navigation, hit home and set nova the default launcher, then re-enable gesture nav. But it is working perfectly for me.
I'm using Nova and the gestures are working fine.
Only thing is can't get rid of the line on the bottom of the home page.

Have you had any issues at all with Action Launcher? I tried using it and certain apps seemed to get stuck. It was very weird, like the app screen got set as the home screen - I could long press on the app screen and make home screen things happen. But I never could get back to actual home screen. I had to reboot.

I did not notice this, but I'm currently using Nova. I do know that you need to actually set the launcher as your default through the settings menu rather than through the launcher. That's the only way I could get it to reliably work.
I wanted to give the new Android 10 Gestures a try but I've noticed a couple of annoyances while using them with Nova. Not sure if these issues are Nova-specific, or third-party launcher-specific. I've only confirmed these issues on Nova,
1. If you swipe to go home and immediately try to tap on an app/folder, it won't work. Seems like you need to give it a second before touches register.
2. Swiping horizontally to switch between apps can sometimes stutter, and almost never works when on the home screen. I have the Nova Google Companion installed so I just end up swiping to that Google news feed.
Again, these are on the minor side, but not minor enough for me to tolerate and use Gestures. I'd appreciate if anyone could confirm this happens to them as well and / or have a workaround / fix!
It's a third party issue. Really annoying as I want folders in the drawer and the ability to hide apps, but it isn't as smooth as using the stock pixel launcher.
True I have had some minor issues as well but I think now that gestures are allowed with third party launchers nova team will tighten up the app to work better with them. Just have to wait for an update.

I'm using Nova and experience #1 from time to time. Not sure why it happens though.
When you open Nova setting right at the top it explains that gestures is not compatible with Android 10 for now.

Yeah that's wrong it's now compatible but only with pixel 4 and 4 xl I'm guessing that's why they leave that up there since you can use nova on any device. Ok so technically it's not wrong it only works on the 4. I still think it's just a matter of them fine tuning the gestures in their app hopefully they will do this sooner than later.
Thanks for the input guys, I didn't know Nova needed an update but I thought Google needed to continue refine support for third party launchers.
I agree though it's not as smooth as stock but I need folders in the app drawer and the app search widget in Nova is hard to go without now.
Hola
While I understand the ease of using native gesture settings, have you folks tried FNG as an alternative. Those issues that you listed drove me bonkers, that I switched over to FNG, a lot more controls, and so far a smoother experience.

Yeah I tried it but sometimes third party gestures can interfere with other apps (displaying on top of them).
It's a good app no doubt, but like you said, it's about the ease and seamlessness of using native gestures!
As seen here, this is the most annoying bug on the phone now...
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyTab/comments/l3wnhr
This is for people on One UI 3.1 using third party launchers. You might come across a bug where:
1.The launcher keeps stopping/force closing or
2. Exiting an app causes the screen to flash and does nothing if you touch the screen immediately after.
Any fixes or workarounds?
I've had this issue with Nova Launcher and my S21 Ultra. Haven't found a permanent fix for it as yet.
thats weird I have had my s21 ultra since 5 pm yesterday, thats the first thing I did was download Nova, that's all i use, and have not had any issues with what you guys are having.

I believe we (AUS) owners are one firmware release behind (I'm on AUA4 with a build date of early Jan where the latest is AUAC with a build date later in Jan) so perhaps it's been fixed in the latest release?
If I use the Samsung gestures (swipe up from the bottom), Fluid Navigation gestures doesn't actually prevent those gestures from working for some reason (even after running the ADB command needed)

Yes these bugs are unacceptable
I have this issue as well where swiping up to go home causes the screen to flash and become unresponsive for a second or so. It only happens with gesture navigation and a 3rd party launcher.
I'm on the update release January the 1st. Is there a chance this is fixed in an update already available in part of the world?
Never mind I already have AUAC. that does not fix it. We may need to report this bug to Samsung. Has anyone done that? Chances are a fix is coming since they did fix the rest of the issues that were on earlier oneui versions for gestures in 3rd party launchers.
Did anyone confirm this happens in all 3rd party launchers and not just Nova?

Are you using gesture navigation? AFAIK it only affects the home gesture. Use Nova, launch an app. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to go home and immediately after, try tapping an icon on the launcher screen to launch another app. You notice no unresponsive issue here?

I'm on UAC since yesterday evening but this issue only happened when I first got the phone on Monday. I went into Nova settings and set it as default launcher. Since then no issues at all.

That's interesting. Exynos version? I wonder what causes some of us (most?) to experience it but not you. I've set Nova as default in the system settings, not in Nova, but that should produce the same effect. Did you do anything else between the non working and the working state?
By Samsung swipe up, do you mean swipe up from the bottom in 3 different places rather than swiping screen left and right edges to go back? I use the version where you swipe left and right edges for back. Is that it perhaps?

Yes exynos. India variant. And yes for your last question too. I prefer the swipe up gestures because using the side swipe with a case I couldn't get it to work reliably.
I'm sorry I couldn't find the setting for this in the settings menu so when I first experienced this issue I simply set nova as default through its own settings.
Also I had used smartswitch cable transfer to migrate all data apps and settings over from the S20+

Oh I saw just now that this is already stated in the top post. I couldn't see the quoted area on my mobile, now I see it. The bug is only present with google gestures and there's a hint on how to bypass the problem with one hand +, I'll try that now.

Thanks for this thread, this was driving me crazy, i tried Action Launcher, Niagra, Smart Launcher and they all have the stutter when you return to then home screen when using android 11 gestures. Samsung gestures fixes but my muscle memory is to swipe from the sides for back so i'm struggling with it. Currently back to the One UI launcher to be able to use android gestures seamlessly. Hoping for a fix to this in future updates to OneUI but doubtful!

Use one handed operations+ from play/galaxy store. I hated android 11 swipe from left to go back, because I'm used to open menu in many apps from the left side and now it was going back, with oho+ i have swipe back from right and normal left side without any commands, also that app is OP so you can customise it even more

Does not solve the gesture usage on the bottom.
I have a different issue wherein even tough I have set Nova as the default launcher, after a reboot, One UI launcher is set as default again. This doesn't happen all the time though but just random.
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.

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 donāt 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.

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.

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.
