Hi,

I can't seem to find an answer to this. I have the navigation bar configured to recieve upward swipe gestures: switch app; home screen; and back. (I don't like accidental button presses when typing.) Unfortunately, swiping upward along the bottom right also takes me to the home screen. I'm constantly doing by accident.. Is there a fix?

Thanks~

I think this depends on what flavour of android you have. I can't answer your question, but if you provide the phone model and os version, it should help whoever comes along and can answer :)

That's okay. I'll look in developer options, and in the meantime just be less inaccurate with my swipes ;)

I installed this recently to try and fix control of the gestures that have issues with returning home on Android 14 with a 3rd party launcher

This lets you program your own gestures and can discount your original ones if you set it up right, may be what your looking for.
