I'm right handed. I bet most people are. When I hold my phone with one hand and swipe my thumb down from the top, do I really want to see my settings which I change once in a while, or my notifications which are constantly coming in? Its hard to reach the left swipe down with your right hand.

Is there a way to switch this?

Sorry but no thats the default swipe gestures to pull down the menu.  You can change it back to the old way if you prefer one swipe down instead of 2 

Quick Notification settings

  1. Swipe down from the top right of the screen.
  2. Click the Pencil icon in upper right.
  3. Click the Panel settings in upper left
  4. Change the setting from Separate to Together.

Yes, mine are combined as well. To quickly open the full menu, swipe down with two fingers.

@Sauce In addition to @GaryB82 's recommendation, you may want to take a look at the One Hand Operation+ module in Samsung's Good Lock. With that you can create swipes from the edges which perform the task you specify. So you can make a short swipe left open the Notifications pane. There are many, many options. 

This is all free and available in the Galaxy store.

Actually I believe there is. If I'm reading this right. Swipe down from upper right corner.
Click on the pencil
Click on panel settings
Flip the switch on the bottom that says "quick panel on left side"
Click done. That might do what you're looking for

@Sauce What @Big-Bad-Brad posted will do it. You can also enable one swipe for notifications under home screen settings.1749150634410.jpg
