Cool Galaxy s5 feature that I can't find

[Josiah23]

Hey, does anyone know what the feature is called when you swipe up on the home screen and a book-like screen pops up? I went to go see my mom and she had had a verizon galaxy s5 like me, but she had some cool feature enabled that I can't seem to find, It had some apps or something like that on it. I'm sorry for the poor description, I've never seen that before.

Book-like? Do you mean the Recent Apps screen?

Nope. She swiped up from the bottom of the screen and a new screen with certain apps and or widgets popped up. We have the same phone, same carrier, and same Android version 5.0 lollipop

Nope none of those. It had a page called toolbar, one called recent and another called favorites.

I don't think it was "my magazine" I disabled it from the home screen and then disabled Flipboard.

Home down any blank space one of your home screen. I'm confident that should do it for you.

Would it be possible to take a screenshot of that app on your Moms phone & post it?
(Press the power and home buttons at the same time.)

She could take the screenshot & email it to you & then you could upload it.

Could you possible be talking about omniswipe or easyswipe?

I just downloaded omni swipe from the play store and it looks somewhat similar but what she had was built in

Maybe it's the assistant menu? Settings -> Accessibility -> Dexterity and Interaction -> Assistant Menu
