Get ready to experience the fluid navigation gestures of the future with Fluid N.G! This app, inspired by Breccia's innovative concept, brings a fresh and modern look to your phone's navigation.
Usage
Fluid N.G introduces two intuitive gestures: 'Quick swipe' and 'Swipe & Hold'. These can be triggered from the bottom or side edges of your screen. Note that side triggers are only active on the bottom half of the screen, ensuring you can still easily access side menus in other apps.
Actions
With Fluid N.G, you can perform a variety of actions with ease:
- Back
- Home
- Recent apps
- Toggle split screen
- Open notifications
- Open power dialog
- Open quick settings
- Launch Google search overlay
- Open keyboard selector
- Voice Search
- Launch assistant
- Launch app
- Launch shortcut
Setup
To fully enjoy Fluid N.G, you may need to hide the software navigation keys. This requires root access or a PC to grant the necessary permissions. Here's how to do it using Android ADB on a PC or Mac:
Enable Developer Mode in your Android settings.
Turn on USB Debugging.
Set up ADB on your computer.
Run the following ADB command to grant the permission:
adb shell pm grant com.fb.fluid android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
To revert to the original navigation keys, simply disable Fluid N.G or use this ADB command:
adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0
