Unhelpful Feature

[George Smyth]

When I swipe from the bottom of my pad into the screen the result is that a window pops up asking me how to complete my requested action. This may be helpful to some, but for me it really is an annoyance, as I end up doing this repeatedly when scrolling a page.

Is there some way to turn this feature off or set the action to always do nothing?

Thanks -

I looked in the manual and couldn't find a mention of that feature -- are you using the stock launcher, or did you install a 3rd party launcher like Nova?

I'm not sure what you mean by launcher, so so I guess I am using whatever came with the tablet.

I made a five second video of what it does and placed it at https://photos.app.goo.gl/1hwikcMpQ7WH9zFt1

It looks like a gesture feature from Huawei. I'm not sure if you can turn that off. Go to the system settings and look for a section for Gestures to see if there's a way to turn it off.

Found a program called SwipeLanch Disabler that prevents this from happening.
