I came from a Zuk Z2 pro. The thing I miss the most and almost feel like I can't live without is swiping left and right on the fingerprint scanner to navigate through your recent apps.
As a matter of fact, all navigation on the phone was done through the fingerprint scanner, tap once to go back, tap and hold for recent apps, swipe right to switch to recent apps, swipe left for home. It was really intuitive and after 1 year with that phone, to me it feels like this navigation bar on the OnePlus 5T is subpar.
How would you guys feel about adding this type of functionality to the OPO 5T? Since the fingerprint scanner already supports swipe gestures, I think it would be easy to add this to any custom rom. Actually, I already have the code related to this functionality https://github.com/edTheGuy00/utouch (I did some development for Zuk Z2 pro)
Simply adding swipe left and right functions would be pretty cool huh? Share your thoughts.
Never tried it before, but that does sound kinda interesting

In Android O there's an API for this, it's called FingerprintGestureController.

I thought the pixel 2 xl had a one handed mode setting. Maybe I'm thinking of my old Note 5. There was an option to swipe up from the corner and have the phone go into a scaled down screen/nav bar mode. Can't seem to find this setting now on the Pixel 2 XL.

I too had a Note 5 and used that feature a bit but nothing native in the Pixel. There is this thread...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/how-to/one-handed-mode-pixel-xl-t3695625
No native one-handed use but some tips are to use the fingerprint sensor to pull down and up the notification menu and turn on one-handed keyboard option.
Anyway i can remove the back arrow. From third party launcher?.

Third-party launchers will need an update for the back arrow to be hidden on the home screen by default, in Android P, when gestures are enabled. Nothing can be done at the moment.

Not on P yet, but eventually.

I'm using OnePlus gestures and highly recommend it. Along with Hide Nav Bar it's like my OnePlus 6 was...which had much better gesture navigation than the P implementation

Is that an app, does it require root or anything? And does it work well? Better then the XDA app?
If you go to the link just once, you’ll have your queries addressed in the video or the article.
Navigation Gestures by XDA does not require root access, meaning you can use our app on virtually any Android device.
Navigation Gestures by XDA doesn’t use Immersive Mode to hide the navigation bar, which means an accidental swipe near the bottom won’t interfere with our gesture controls.
Navigation Gestures by XDA doesn’t force fullscreen mode. This means that keyboard access won’t be broken unlike other solutions.

So how is this app working out for you on the enormous screen of the 10 plus?

Well, I used in my note 8, and it was a little inconsistent, sometimes it responded well, others worked, but without the wave animation, now with this note10, on pie, I dont know
Samsung have a better gestures solution called 'One hand +', many more gestures, greater customisation.
I don't mean to be patronising, but if you haven't tried it yet, I reccomend that you do.
FNG works perfectly

Well, yes, I just downloaded it in my note 10+ today, and it works fine, in the 8 it was inconsistent

I'd agree but the only negative with One handed + is there are no bottom toggles.
I have tried a couple of hybrid approaches
1 - Standard samsung gestures on and one handed operation plus on for the back gestures (quick swipe) and app switcher (long swipe)
2 - Standard samsung gestures on and Fluid NG too (Using just fluid NG give FPS placement issues) gives me long swipe up for app switcher and swipe from side for back gesture. I switch off the quick swipe up as the standard swipe up covers it

You do know that you can place the handles(active area) of 'One Hand +' at any height on the screen, even practically 'fullscreen' by increasing its length, and that 'right' and 'left' handles can be configured independently of each other?
I also use a 'hybrid' system of gestures, 'Nova Launcher Prime' being the other. With these 2, I can control practically every aspect of my phone with gestures alone.
But heyho, whatever works for you, works.

I do yes but it does not support any swipe from the bottom gestures which is what I was trying to say.

Sure, but you have 'Recent', 'Home' and 'Back' gestures at the bottom anyway.

Personally I do not like how Samsung did these, e.g. having to swipe up from the left or right side. Much prefer the iphone, pixel, Huawei approach. YMMV

I don't use any of those brands, so can't really comment, I'm not discounting them per se, just that I've never used them.
The good thing about all this is that we get choices, win win for the end user.

It's the cat's arse. Wuv this apk, very customizable, low resource usage and works very well.

A slick app.
Works perfectly fine. Been using it since my P20 pro.

Coming from a OP7Pro, I have to say that these new Google gestures suck. Can no longer swipe from the sides to call up a side menu in various apps because swiping in from the sides now takes me back. I miss the old gestures where everything was done from the bottom:
Swipe up, bottom left/right: back
Swipe up, center: home
Swipe up and hold, center: recent apps
Trying to find a way to get those back but can't. Thought I hit the jackpot with the process in the link below, but I have an issue afterwards where swiping up from left/right of bottom combines both back and home commands and always takes me home.
Anybody have any ideas?
Revert back to old swipe gestures on OnePlus in Android 10 (OxygenOS 10) update
Here is how to get th old swipe gestures from Android 9 Pie on OnePlus phones running Android 10 (OxygenOS 10). Revert back to old Oxygen OS swipe gesture navigation on OnePlus 5/6/7/8.
www.androidsage.com
I think this method just disables the "swipe from left/right = back" function.
It does not enable "swipe up from bottom left or bottom right = back" like in the good old days.
I'm coming from a one+ 6... So also an adjustment for me...
I think OnePlus is trying to default all the things, left and right swipe is Google's implementation.
Me too i'm coming from a OP6 and want those gestures back, i already made a suggestion on OP site but i don't think it will happen since there were people on op8 who also wanted them but didn't get it.
Also with gestures app, i couldn't hide the navigation button bar with adb command so it wont work too
I personally like swipe from side for back. What they could do is make it work only in bottom 2/3 of the screen while the top 1/3 would be for bringing up hamburger menus. That's how it was with my old honor (which I hated) but this one feature really made sense.

Actually I think that method do bring back corner swipe = back gesture, the problem is that swipe up from bottom = home takes the whole bottom, it will get triggered with the back gesture.
You can confirm that by swipe from corner slowly, if you careful enough, you can only trigger back without trigger home action, or at least see two gestures are being triggered at once. Another proof is that after getting back home by swipe up from corner, if you open the app from recent apps switch, you can see that the app indeed got a back action(return to last page)
So I think if we can find a way to narrow the range for bottom swipe = home action, we can get this to work almost perfectly.

I have no idea what you mean dude
With Fluid Gestures, I have 3 areas at the bottom.
Left is back.
Middle is Home and Recent apps with Swipe&Hold
Right area is Back
And then I also have the Right Side set up to switch between apps.
See screenshots.

Nice, thanks for the tip. I'll try this. I have previously tried gesture apps but since Google removed that overscan item starting with 10/11 that rendered 3rd party gesture apps useless, they didn't work and I gave up. But I did not try with substratum or run in to that thread you linked.

Got it working. It wasn't working initially, then I realized I had to change from Gestures to Nav Bar Navigation within the phone settings. Thanks so much! It's getting closer to feeling like my 7 Pro!

What I mean is by using "settings put system op_gesture_button_side_enabled" method you do get the swipe up from bottom left or bottom right = back gesture. The only problem is you will always trigger swipe up from bottom = home/recent gesture alone with it, so it seems swipe up from bottom corner is not working.
I think if we can find some way to change the swipe up from bottom = home/recent gesture area, just trigger it by swipe up from bottom center we might get the original OP7 gesture to work.
Tell me the system version number, maybe I can make changes

Sorry, misread.
I thought you were talking about the NoNavbar route.
That's true.
The "settings put..." method does not work.
I do not think you can alter the bottom area to consist of 3 different touch area's. Left, center, right. And change the width of them.
But the link I provided does work.
Substratum lite, NoNavbar, Fluid Gestures.
I am using it right now...

We don't have to split the bottom area to three parts, just limit the home/recent gesture to center so it wont be triggered by swipe up from bottom corner should do the trick.

I love you.
I like "Lift phone to ear to answer a call" gesture.
I posted on Oneplus. They answer to talk to Google...
O posted on Google.., no answer.
I upgraded from OxygenOS (android 10) to KOSP 2.3 (running android 12) on my OnePlus 7 Pro. Everything about KOSP is better than OEM OOS except the stock A12 gestures. I wanted to run "Vivid Navigation Gestures" but the damn navbar was baked into the ROM.
This was the first solution I found that worked to hide the navbar! Thanks for posting!
