What if, when you didn't pay attention to the Navigation Bar at the bottom it SMOOTHLY flew down the bottom of the screen. And when you wanted to use it, you just swiped up and it responded right away!?
Wouldn't that be awesome? I don't know if it's possible to do or if Google would have to implement it. If you can do it let me know when you make it!
That's what I have set up on my MoPho, using Apex launcher. I've hidden both the dock and notification bar. When I need them, I swipe up for my app drawer and swipe down for my notifications. I press home softbutton to toggle my status bar, and also set double-tap anywhere on screen for my GoSMS to launch.
I like the clean look

Swiping up with one finger might not be a good idea. Say for example you're in the settings menu and you swipe down, either the phone will open up the notification bar or scroll down.. or both. Swiping up and swiping down with 2 fingers would be great!
Mybad, just realized that I was still in the Nexus section and not the Photon lol, time for bed :7
In some ROMS out there you already have the ability to hide the nav bar - and use these controls from the advanced power menu instead. Same option, different solution.
Is there anyway to access the notification bar by swiping from the bottom. They make these phones too damn big.
Google Now is useless crap and swiping the home button shows all this extra space for swiping in different directions. Anything I can do to make this not suck so bad? What is the point of this semi-circle with a Google Now button to swipe to? Can't I do anything with the other 179 degrees?
Is there perhaps an app that would allow me to bring down the notification bar without having to adjust my hands and swipe from the top of the screen?
Thanks
Nova launcher have gestures that you can use from the home screen. Custom ROMs have option that allows you to customise the semicircle.
Beamed from my Maguro.
Does anyone know how to hide the square top right corner toggle to edit the notification toggles? It's very annoying, everytime I swipe down to bring down the menu and my finger is near the right side it will bring down the toggles to edit. Any way to remove this? I thought wanam would have this feature but no where to be found. Any suggestions?
I was wondering if anyone was aware of a way to mod the system so that a single finger swipe down on the notification bar bring down the notifications only and not the quick settings as well? It's so annoying having to swipe the quick settings away to expand notifications.
Is there any way to hide the nav bar while in split screen mode? I have my nav bar auto hide all of the time but when using two apps side by side, it reappears and there is no longer an option to hide it.
Am I missing the logic behind this? Surely when using two apps on the one screen, that extra space is even more important?
After the Android Oreo update, the gesture options allow you to get rid of the navigation bar and use swipe gestures to perform functions such as "back" "background windows" and "home". However entering split screen mode from this stage is my concern.
