Android Q adds more than just a dark theme.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the official release of Android Q getting closer<\/span>, it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with Google’s<\/span> new approach to gesture based navigation. That’s right, you’ll soon have the option to ditch the staple three-button navigation that we’ve had on Android<\/span> for years. The new gestures are very iPhone-like<\/span>, but we’re not complaining.<\/p>\n

We know about Android Q and the included gestures thanks to Google’s beta program, which you can\u00a0sign up for and take part in<\/span>\u00a0if you’re willing to deal with random bugs and issues. That said, it’s entirely possible Google changes how the new gestures look or behave, and if that happens, we’ll be sure to update this post.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Gesture navigation in Android Q is optional — for now, at least — so you’ll have to purposely opt-in to using it. Here’s how to enable it, and then how to use all of the new gestures we can find right now, including how to master the new back gesture.<\/p>\n

The process will vary based on who makes your phone, but if you search the Settings app for “Gestures,” you shouldn’t have any issue finding it. However, here’s how to enable gesture navigation on a Pixel 3 XL ( $1,000 at Amazon<\/a>)<\/span>:<\/p>\n

    Your screen will flash, and a few seconds later the buttons that were just present along the bottom of your screen will be gone. In their place will be a single white line. <\/p>\n

    \tHow to get to the home screen<\/h2>\n

    A quick swipe up from the bottom of your phone’s screen will take you back to your home screen.<\/p>\n
