Highlights: The Samsung One Hand Operation + app is now available on the Google Play Store. The app will work with Samsung devices only. The app gives users a glimpse into the world of gesture navigation. Samsung has released its One Hand Operation + app on the Google Play Store. The app officially works on Samsung devices only. As the name suggests, the app makes it easy to navigate one's Samsung smartphone with just one hand. Users can perform various swipe gestures from the edge of the display to perform certain actions. These swipe gestures can be for functions like going back, going to the home screen, going to the recent app, navigating to the menu, going forward in a web browser, opening the notifications panel, opening the quick panel, opening the assistant, taking a screenshot, pulling the screen down, going into one handed mode and more. You can check out the full list of functions along with download the app from the Google Play Store here. The gestures can be to the left or the right of the screen based on whether you are a right handed user or a left handed user. The way we navigate our smartphones has come a long way. The first Android devices had hardware buttons below the display. After that we started seeing on screen buttons and now we have gestures. Gestures aren't new, but they are baked into Android Pie making them easier to implement on smartphones. Samsung has been notorious for its Tizen UI on smartphones for the past decade, but it looks like the South Korean smartphone maker has its act together with the One UI. It has gotten rid of everything that made Tizen cumbersome and has given the software a clean UI. Since Samsung’s phones are quite big, one handed operation is baked into the phones running on One UI. It is easier to navigate a big Samsung smartphone today than it was before with one hand. Samsung’s One UI is available on devices as old as the S8 and Note 8 family of devices. However, the Samsung One Hand Operation + is a nice way of giving Samsung’s other device users an experience of gesture based navigation. Even though the app is for Samsung devices only, Android Police says, “In case you're wondering, the app is exclusive to Samsung devices, but thanks to Edge Gestures, a paid application available on the Play Store, I've been able to do the same on my phone for a while.” Also Read: Samsung Galaxy A40 with 5.7-inch display gets FCC certified OnePlus 7 listed with image, specs by Chinese online retailer After Galaxy Fold, Samsung developing two more foldable phones: Report
