Are multi-finger gestures/swipes still a thing?

I apologize in advance if this question is either frequently asked or the answer is blatantly obvious but I really haven't had much luck getting a straight answer by looking this up.

​

I used to have a Galaxy S6 that I had multi-finger gestures on. For example, one of the most useful shortcuts I had set was for my phone to lock and go to sleep when I spread three fingers out on the screen and it would do this regardless of what app was active on the screen.

Just an S10+ Review from a Regular Guy

Just got my hands on the Samsung Galaxy S10+ for the past 5 days, I’m just going to compile things that I like a don’t like about the S10+

What I like about the S10+

Display. What stood out the most was the display, Samsung never failed to make the Display nice

8GB of ram. The 8GB ram was more than sufficient for my daily uses. It has kept all my apps open and where I left off without a refresh.

4100mah battery. Battery life has been the best I’ve gotten in a smartphone. It could last me abo...

Pinning Live cricket scores on Google Android

I recently noticed a new feature when searching cricket scores.
You get a new option now called "pin live score".

It adds a sticky bubble on your screen with live score. This can be tapped again to see more details which is also a popup window.

I think this a neat feature that can let user do other tasks on their phone while keeping updated with live scores.

What is Your Favorite Android Version?

For me, it was Android KitKat - specifically, version 4.4.3 as it came with a built in permissions manager that was disabled in 4.4.4. Top 3 reasons:

1. This is the last time the Notification Ticker was enabled in Android. Best way to get notifications without disrupting your current task.
2. Lock screen widgets. The ability to access info without unlocking your device was super useful.
3. Holo theme/design - although it was toned WAY down by then, it still looked so much more attractive than m...

[DEV] 'Mars Eyes' Android Application (Mars Rovers' Photos)

Greetings,

​

I have developed my first Android application, from which you can choose a certain Mars Rover (out of 3 currently in existence), then a certain calendar date and voila: all the photos taken on Mars by that specific Rover on that specific date, taken directly from the NASA database. The app is not yet in its final form, for example some dates do not display any photos because of some inconsistency in the provided data. Fixes are on the way, including changes regarding the la...

Hey! I'm the developer of **Let's**, a new take on to-do lists. I was getting tired of either bland/cluttered looking UI's or just plain boring to-do apps, so I made my own! I worked on this for the last couple of months in my spare time so any feedback would really be appreciated.

The more tasks you complete the more you win points which win you trophies!

I can confirm that the Pixel Camera is still a laggy piece of crap after the March OTA. It is slow to start and frequently destroys videos entirely by freezing for several seconds, or straight up erroring out and stopping the recoding which is what just happened. Again.

PSA: Samsung (Canada) Not Honouring Pre-Order Trade-In Quotes

I pre-ordered my S10+ in person at the Samsung store in late February. The pre-order incentive at the time was 'Device trade in value + $200 bonus'. I was quoted $350 for my s9+, for a total trade-in credit of $550. Tonight when I went to pick up my phone I was told the quote given on the day of my pre-order was no longer valid and that Samsung was now offering $225 trade-in credit + $200 bonus for a total trade-in credit of $425, a difference of $125! After 45 minutes and the assurance that I w...
