How to enable swipe gestures (Swipe from bottom, Gesture hints) on Galaxy devices
With the new update to the navigation bar settings on Galaxy devices, the Swipe from bottom and Gesture hints options have been simplified but can still be enabled via Good Lock's NavStar app.
Notes:
- Effective for NavStar app version v6.1.05.33 and later.
- The Good Lock app supports English, Korean, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese.
By installing Good Lock’s NavStar app, you can further customise your Galaxy device to suit your preferences.
Step 1. Download the Good Lock app from Galaxy Store.
* This app is only available via Galaxy Store not with Google Play Store.
Step 2. Open the Good Lock app > Download NavStar in the Make up tab.
When you activate the Enable extra gesture settings option in the NavStar app, you can see the added options in the navigation bar settings in Display.
Step 1. Open Good Lock app > Tap NavStar in the Make up tab.
Step 2. Tap the switch On to enable extra gesture settings in the Swipe gestures tab.
After enabling Enable extra gesture settings, additional options appear, such as Button order and Gesture hints.
Step 1. Open Settings > Display.
Step 2. Tap Navigation bar.
Step 3. Select Swipe gestures > Tap More options.
Step 4. Select the desired swipe gesture. (Swipe from bottom or Swipe from sides and bottom)
* Button order is visible when the user selects the "Swipe from bottom" option.
Step 5. Tap the Gesture hints switch to enable the feature.
Notes:
- Using a phone case may impede gestures along the edge of the screen. Selecting a higher sensitivity level might help with this problem.
- To avoid unintentional gestures, choose a lower sensitivity level.
Path to change Gesture sensitivity:
- Settings > Display > Navigation bar > Swipe gestures > More Options > Gesture hint > Select lower or higher Gesture sensitivity according to the user's preference.
