I am still trying to get used to the UI 7.0 navigation bar gestures commands specifically for using the back button or the minimize function to then close the app(s) as was on 6.1 and earlier. No matter which motion I choose, it minimizes the app. To close the app, I have to finger swipe up and briefly hold to make the apps show up minimized, then close them. Or if I want to close them directly, I have to hold finger on app and as I move upwards (without releasing) it will minimize until I get the haptic feedback. Then I can let go, it will be showing as minimized and then I can close it.
Now I am used to gesturing to the left from the right portion of the screen to work as the back button function. But closing apps is really cumbersome and inconvenient as opposed to when I could simply swipe up and then close them right off. Or maybe I am missing a setting choice?
Note to dev team: perhaps this can be added back in as a future update as allowing another choice to the current methods on the 7.0 UI
EDIT:
Such a dummy! I found the setting for the navigation bar. When I went into settings/display/navigation bar/more options, I much have had my finger on the screen each time, moving the screen quickly up, hiding that gesture motion choice. There are two with the one I want being the top choice swiping from the bottom and the other choosing "back" swiping form the sides.
To get the old Gestures back you will need NavStar from Good Lock unfortunately at the moment NavStar hasn't officially been updated to work with One UI 7 but you can download the NavStar APK from APKMirror Version 7.0.00.6 it is safe to download I use APKMirror all the time once you have NavStar updated open it toggle it on then toggle on Enable Extra Gesture Settings then go to Navigation Bar in Phone Settings and under Gestures tap More Options
I already have the APK version of Navistar in place for the UI 7.0. That works great for ridding of the navigation bars icons which I do not want. But this is completely different and there are no settings either in Navstar or in the navigation bar settings that allows what were previous gestures pre 7.0.
