QOL "Gestures" similar to iPhone's available on Android?

[NegativeZeroSquared]

Hi Android Central! So, I just recently switched over from an iPhone 7 to a Samsung Galaxy S10 plus, and there are a few things I noticed about iPhones that I was hoping would Port over to Androids. Simple things, like being able to slide from the left of the screen in order that go back from a menu, instead of moving your finger all the way up to the arrow to go back, especially on such a big phone like this, when one handed. Or other things, like adding a song to your queue in Spotify by just swiping left isn't present anymore. I was wondering if there's any fix for these "gestures" and if I'd have to root my phone in order to download these (if there are, where would I be able to find them?). I don't know, maybe they're just hidden in the settings somewhere. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi, welcome to AC forum's!
Download a app called Samsung Good lock , it has one handed mode plus a lot of other features. You can go full gestures on the S10 no buttons , also make sure Dolby Atmos is enable for nice sound in drop down notification panel . Some apps your in or web browser you can swipe over to the next Page

Thank you! That worked perfectly. For anyone wondering, here's the app I found to add swipe gestures to my device: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.sidegesturepad
