30 fun Android and Google Pixel gestures

1. Hello friends. I thought I had posted a corrections comment but I guess YouTube deleted it.

   So here we go.

   1. In the hamburger menu gesture, you can diagonally swipe up or down. I said one direction and showed another, and then upon rewatch decided that it could be confusing for some folks. That's my bad.

   2. In the "Files by Google" gesture, you don't need to double tap to change the volume. It's a single tap with two fingers. That's entirely my fault. When you've read a script with the words "two", "finger", "double', and "tap" that many times, it's easy to get tongue twisted.

   3. The "faster app switching" is doable with the 3-button softkeys. Tap the recent apps button twice to quickly swap between two apps. In the video, I was trying to show that you can do the scrolling quick switch like you can with the gestures.

   4. The one-fingered pinch to zoom actually works in any app that has a pinch-to-zoom functionality. I misread my source on that one and I should've tested it more thoroughly first.

   I see you all have started listing your favorite gestures off as well. Happy to see them and keep 'em coming!

2. This looks like so much FUN.

3. 1:42 – I wish Quick tap was universal across all OEMs 🙁 It would be the best way to take screenshot for me.

4. If you double tap the recent button on old navigation bottom bar, it will quickly switch to your last app.

5. Thanks, this video is so useful 👏

6. Another one for YouTube:
   If your video is in PiP mode, you can drag from the top left corner to resize it.

7. Have known most of these but some others like hold on viewfinder to invoke Google lens are new to me.

8. This was handy thanks 😊

9. Deleting text by swiping backspace button too)))

10. When you're watching a YouTube video in landscape mode you can swipe down on the video to exit out of landscape mode

11. iPhone has all this features

12. I hate the pixel gestures. Wish there was an option to get the one plus one

13. Good video

14. Wow the YouTube one is definitely useful. I always hate looking for the smol button for videos. Now I just need to perform the gestures and then get it done fairly easily.

15. I know it existed before but iphone x made it mainstream. Nobody gave a bloody shit about gestures before. So thank you apple.

16. You did not mention "hidden menu" by holding on the opened tabs button inside Chrome. It lets you close the window, open a new window or open incognito mode.

17. Hello. Did you trapped to phantom navigation strip bug?

18. José

19. Cool.

20. 0:48 If swiping like that is still finicky to you, there is a THIRD way to open the hamburger menu which I prefer and is more consistent. Simply hold your finger on the edge of the screen for like half a second, the menu will then peek out, and swipe right to pull the menu out.

21. Oh well straight from iOS

22. Never knew about the delete whole word shortcut thanks 👍

23. is there any for Flashlight?

24. AA is barely alive 😕

25. ❤️
