I tried using 'Fingerprint Quick Action' which can assign buttons to fingerprint reader - YouTube


After a while using "Fingerprint Quick Action", we also assigned functions available with the three buttons "Return to previous one", "Home button" and "Application history display" displayed at the bottom of the screen for fingerprint authentication I can not feel convenience. It is fairly convenient to assign functions that do not complete with thumb alone, such as "Power Menu" for single tap, "Notify Expansion" for swipe. Especially swipe operation is similar to "swipe downwards at the top of the display" which is done when pulling out the notification panel, so assigning notification deployment and quick setting tool display will make operation easier.

The gesture operation when "power supply menu" is assigned to the single tap and "notification deployment" is assigned to the swipe can be confirmed from the following.
