Back：Swipe in from the left or right side of the screen
Home：Slide up from the bottom of the screen
Recent tasks：Slide up and pause from the bottom of the screen
The actual operation interface is like this:
Small screen mode
The full screen looks really cool, but sometimes it is inconvenient to operate the big screen phone with one hand. At this time, we can turn on the small screen mode to solve this problem. How to use the small screen mode, please see the instructions below.
We only need to slide in from the bottom left or bottom right corner to open the small screen mode, if you want to exit the small screen mode, click anywhere in the offscreen area.

nice!
In my experience for recent apps it works fastest if you swipe up and instead of holding you just swipe back down again a little bit. This opens the recent apps tab almost immediately and multitasking feels much smoother

Just tried this, works really well! Great tip, thanks.
Gestures with 3rd party launchers are iffy. Swiping up on Nova brings up recent apps before going home.
Yes with nova it's annoying. Try the ms launcher... The same issue but recent apps are only visible very short and then switches instant to the home screen... So better than nova

I'm currently using action launcher with the xda gestures. When setting up the gestures, there's an option to hide the navigation bar so it looks clean. The animations aren't as slick as the factory gestures but it works very well with a launcher and is quick.

Too bad there is no switch between the 2 most recent apps and launching of Google Assistant gestures that's why I'll nvr use gestures. OP6 at least offered a gesture for switching and launching Assistant

Where to get that version of launcher?
You can use the Fluid Navigation Gestures app (in beta at the moment) with the 3rd party launchers
Is it normal that when you're on the home screen, you can't access the recent apps with gesture ?
If I want to access to that screen from home, I need to open an application first, and then to make the gesture to open the multi-tasking view... It's really annoying !
Very good, thank you for sharing

Is there any way to change what gesture does what ?
I deactivated the Google Assistant one, and I'd love to be able to put the "back" gesture in its place instead of swiping from the sides of the screen, which conflicts with a lot of apps that have side menus that you can bring up with this gesture.
For example with Discord or Gmail, trying to pull the side menu will often send me back to the home screen because it was detected as the "back" gesture. And as the phone is so tall, I dont really want to have to reach all the way at the top left corner just to click on a button when I can just swipe.
I still prefer this navigation mode over buttons, it looks much cleaner imo. But sometimes this "back" gesture just isnt convenient, despite being more intuitive than swipping from the bottom imo.
At least if we could edit the portion of the screen that was registering it, it would be cool.
This annoyed me to no end. Thanks to the app fluid gesture navigation it's all fixed AND for some reason fluid makes the return home transition smooth when using the stock launcher. It was so jittery before .

You still can but it seems to take longer than with an app.
I recommend you do what was advised in first page. It works especialy well when trying to access multitask from the home screen : swipe up from tje bottom of the screen, then once your finger is between half and 3/4 of the way up, slide it back down to 1/2. It should immediately trigger multitask.

How do you feel about the size of this phone? I have small hands where my thumb sits easy where the power button is on the S3 but struggle one handed to get the notification bar. Almost 100% sold on getting this one and noticed the dimension differences but would like some feed back from the rest of you.
Sure I can go into the store but those dam security things mess with figuring out how the phone would really feel. Of course finding a sales rep at VZW that is willing to let you hold a real one is rare now of days.
Thanks for feedback! If all sounds well I will grab mine Friday.

I thought it was too big to go from S3 to XZ, but i got use to it, and I thought it was too big to go from XZ to G2 but it actually felt like its the same size as the 5in XZ phone, point is I have small hands and I really dont like the Samsung note so this is why I picked this phone. I like to text and drive with one hand what can I say, dont judge me....

I'm not a former S3 owner, but I also struggle with the notification bar. Other than that I seriously love this phone comming from the Note 2.
It would be nice if LG added a hardware button shortcut for the notification bar. But until then, there is the possibility of using the software button. Some of the combinations have a notification bar short cut:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Unfortunately those are all the combinations.
Since i like to have the back button to the right, I find it easier to move the phone in my hand and pull down the notifications rather than reaching all the way across the screen to get the software button short cut.
Yes the note Series is too big for me. I have a coworker who has one and I just can't wrap mmyself to get one, plus price and audio specs appeal to me and the camera is nice. I love how small the moto X is but wow the camera is terrible as always with Motorola.
I really haven't looked back since I switched from the G3. 1)Raw speed- My S3 is insanely slow compared to the G2, not marginally slower. 2)Form factor bigger nicer screen in a not much bigger phone. 3)Not missing the side buttons on the S3, too easy to accidently hit. You will love the knock on feature. 4)Camera- Not even close OIS is nice.
I could keep going, but hopefully these items will help you make a decision.
This phone is quite difficult if not impossible to use with one hand (and I have large hands), for example compared to my former Nexus 4. However LG tried their best to facilitate this (for example by placing the menu on the bottom bar instead of on the left top corner - it seems that none of the reviewers realized why and just bashed LG), You can try to facilitate one-hand use by placing the icons within reach on the home screen, by placing shortcuts to most used web sites on the home screen, etc.
I came from an S3 and I love this phone. Knock On will be the savior for you when you get the phone. One handed use is no problem. I use it all the time and it's quite manageable. You'll love the refreshing screen technology coming from the S3 and the battery is loads better.
I suggest taking on for a test run and returning it if you aren't happy - but I assure you, you will be

I was surprised but even though the screen is larger, the actual footprint is just about the same as the S3. I thought I would never get rid of my SGS3, but I love this phone.

I was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it.
LG thought ahead on this issue (bigger screen makes it harder to pull down the notification bar) so they implemented a software button that you can add to the navigation bar that can be used for expanding and collapsing the notification bar. At first I didn't think I would like the idea of adding more buttons to the nav bar, mainly because I am used to the stock android approach where you have the back button on the far left, home button in the middle and the menu/multi task button on the far right. But I find it really handy to have the button for the notification bar on the nav bar and have pretty much gotten used to having 4 soft buttons instead of the default 3.
I friggin love this phone lol i used all the galaxy series starting from s1 to s4., as well as note 1 and 2.
Personally, im not a big fan of hardware keys. ( home and volume)
After while, they would become somewhat loosened up and make squeeky sounds whenever i press on them on my samsung phones.
For the physical home buttons, it feels like ur double clicking the key after while.
G2 has hard keys on the back, but it feels like more rigid and solid than samsung phone's.

dude my hand measure 8" from thumb to tip of middle finger...thats a small hand, I can hold it one hand easily...U must have really small hand or ****ty grip
get in the gym and do some deadlift bro...it'll help u grab all 150 gram of the phone...
so went and tried it at the store today... corporate stores are getting nice now with these "smart stores".
one handed texting isn't quite as easy... when reaching to left side. noticed I held the phone different so reaching notification isn't as bad.
wish corporate had a model that didn't have that dumb "smart cover" on it. took a bit away from giving a solid yes or no.... then I thought of my cousin who's thunderbolt doesn't even let them get online so I am going to pull the trigger on this tomorrow and root it Thursday lol *must have flash and restore all my text and dress up my phone the way I like it*
thanks for all the feed back, took it into consideration as I was playing with the phone. Wish Verizon didn't mess with the rocker on the back but still feels goodish.
I made the switch from my S3 to this phone because I actually wanted a bigger screen. I have pretty large hands so getting to the notification bar isn't difficult at all. What I do miss however is running Nova Launcher. I had the gesture setup so if I swiped down from anywhere on the screen it would pull the notification tray down. I don't use Nova on the G2 because it disables the knockOn feature, which I can't seem to live without now

I still use Nova launcher for exactly that reason - swipe up opens my app drawer and swipe down expands my notifications bar. Here is a tidbit in case you didn't know... you can still use knock off as long as you tap on the notification bar. Also if you want full knock off you can assign the double tap feature in Nova to tasker and task it to turn the screen off. I just use the notification bar to tap off and am in heaven

Thanks for that. Trying to tap the notification bar though is annoying for me. What's tasker? I don't have that an an option to assign to the double tap gesture.

I use Nova Launcher too; I've always liked swiping down from anywhere on the screen to bring the Notification bar down.
Nova Launcher doesn't disable the Knock On feature, it disables the Knock Off feature.
But, there is a workaround. Just go the Play Store and download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock
You can set it as a double tap gesture to make the phone go to sleep. It's working great for me.

That's what dajmanjt mentioned. I looked at Tasker a while ago but figured it wasn't for me. Now I'm starting to think it may not be a bad investment.
I have small, wide hands and i have no issues with one handed use. If you're on stock rom you can make the dialer flush to the left or right. Thumb keyboard has one handed operation available.
I either hold the phone a little higher up for one handed use or it lays near the end of my fingers. No issues. Adaptation is all that matters.
A nice little free non-root app that sits on the right hand side of the screen when in landscape so you can go the Home Screen, Go Back or look at the Notification dropdown quickly :good::laugh:

Great - thanks a lot!
The buttons located at the middle of the status bar were the topic that bothered me most on my new Z2 tab, as you always have to move your hand and let go the tablet's frame.
:good:
One of the main reasons I have already rooted my device (although the bootloader had to be unlocked).
So I can use "Expanded Desktop" from Xposed module "Gravity Box" (no navigation bar anymore, which additionally means more screen estate) and GMD Gesture control instead.
For instance, for "Back" I have set 2 gestures: Either diagonally (!) to the right and down with 3 fingers, or the same to the left and down.
Since "Back" is a very frequent command, this is the most comfortable direction for a swipe because the arm which is holding the tablet is anyway in that direction. I just have to pull the arm "back" instead of bringing it into a certain position first. And the two gestures ensure that I can make the Back gesture with either hand equally comfortably.
I had the device unrooted for two weeks, and it felt simply awkward to be forced again to hit little spots on the screen for basic commands. (My other devices are always also rooted.)
I've tried GMD gestures but wasn't able to get it work. Any idea why or did you do anything special to make it work? On my N7 it's been working like a charm for a long time. Thanks.
On the Z2 Tablet, you have to set (in "Advanced“) "Override touch events parser detection" to "HC_DEFAULT".
Sorry to be an idiot but this sounds very good and natural. However I can't picture the mvmt. Do u grab with the free hand and then swipe or what?

I tried this but it's a little cumbersome and gets in the way.
And then I remembered PIE! Durr
sorry but piecontrol is far superior. Also no root, and can do a lot more.
I much prefer swiping in method, got used to it with old paranoidandroid builds waaaaay back in the ICS era

Hey guys, is there any way to customize the navigation swipe gesture areas in One UI? I love the new recent apps gesture with the smooth animation, but I would like that the entire bottom area was used to do the recent apps gesture, killing the back and home gestures. As I use the FNG app for side gestures, using the bottom gesture only for recent apps would be great!
I know, without root, this may be impossible, but maybe substratum could do some tricks...?!
I use FNG for everything. Bottom left half does recent apps, bottom right half does home.

I mean that, on One UI, when you enable the native navigation gestures, you can swipe to open the recent apps screen, and as you swipe up, the app follows your finger, giving us a sweet animation, just like the Xiaomi, iOS and others. But the area to swipe to recent apps doesn't fill the entire bottom area of the Galaxy S10, so there's other gestures to the back button and home button. What I would like to know is, if there's any trick to remove the back and home swipe gestures, and fill the whole bottom area to the recent apps gesture only, like iOS and Xiaomi.
FNG act as a "click", so as soon as you do the gesture, it opens the recent apps screen, without that animation that follows your finger as you swipe.

Ah, I think I know what you're saying. Unfortunately I am unsure of how to have the animation follow similar to stock navigation gestures using anything other than the baked in version Samsung gave.
And it's not your English, I'm just a little slow at times, haha.
Hello there,
I had a quick question about the swiping down gesture.
Every android phone I've had let me swipe down from pretty much anywhere on the screen to open the notification bar.
The Oppo Reno 10x however requires me to swipe from the very top edge of the screen, and even then it seems to dislike it when I try from the center of the top of the screen.
Is there a way to disable the swipe down opening this app list search menu? I find it very unintuitive.

Use lawnchair.
Well yes, using a different launcher is a possibility I had considered, but is there literally no option to do so on the standard ColorOS one?
Good question, really want that feature on Oppo launcher, but I doubt there will be a possibility unless Oppo will implement it via software.

And would you happen to know of a good one that replaces swiping down entirely?
The ones I seem to have found only work on the edges and replace all gestures in their respective zones. Which would be an okay workaround (if I select only say, right edge swipe down = notifications) but a bit convoluted and unwieldy as well.
Oh i feel you! I don't want to part with the stock launcher for the slick animations. My workaround at the moment is the app notification draw on the home screen. It isn't the best solution but all there is atm I guess.
The workaround is to use the Assistive Ball. You can tap it to drop down the notification shade.
I'd much prefer that Oppo had taken a leaf from Huawei and LG's book and added the option for a fourth soft key to drop down notifications from any screen as it's too tall to reach comfortably.
But the Assistive Ball will solve for both notification drop down and screen off without reaching for the power button (in addition to one-tap lockscreen). Inelegant yet a solution all the same.
good workaround

Assistive ball is good workaround.
I got sick of Assistive Ball constantly needing to be moved around and ditched the stock launcher.
OPPO should fix this, a phone as tall as the Reno 10x needs a better way to get to the notification shade.
Surprise find - the "One-Tap Lockscreen" shortcut is actually an app, so you can map gestures like double tap in third party launchers to it in order to lock the screen without resorting to janky workarounds like accessibility options or screen timeouts.
Is frustrating that every time I made a swipe from the bottom of the screen, there will be an involuntary touch to the app I'm using or with the keyboard space bar/letters.
A small workaround is to use the bottom gesture bar, but other phones this will not be an issue.
It seems to be a normal behaviour from a certain version of OneUI but no one seem to care about it.
Coming from an old OnePlus 5T, I've noticed it from day one on my S21+.
I'm missing something or what?
I'm the only one facing this issue?
Go to Settings > Display > Navigation Bar. Here try to activate Gesture hints; then open more options in "Swipe gestures" and increase Gesture sensibility.
I also found usefull to download "Good Lock" from the Galaxy store. There in Home Up> Task Changer I activated "Allow bottom gestures in full screen mode"; this was the thing that gave me the most headache.

Today I've tested my old OP5T and there is a different approach with gesture.
Swiping from bottom is really fluid and no there are no issues with keyboard.
I will try to make a video comparison, because this is the only major issue I've found with this device.

Sorry since I don't have problems with the keyboard I have just realized your problem. To solve it go in Setting > General management >Keyboard list and default: here just switch on "keyboard button on navigation bar" and "Show button hide keyboard". By activating these two options your keyboard is going to be moved up a bit so you can avoid miss press (if you use Samsung keyboard you can also just press the three dots then keyboard size and move the keyboard up).
