Palm swipe

How to enable Palm swipe:

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Go into Advanced features.
3. Select Motions and gestures.
4. Toggle Palm swipe to capture.

3. Done!

Assistant menu

The Assistant menu is for those who like one-handed use or would prefer a simple window to access great tools. This menu includes “hardkeys, gestures, and other common interactions.” Of course, you’ll have to enable it first.

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Go into Accessibility.
3. Hit Interaction and dexterity.
4. Toggle Assistant menu on.
5. This will pull up a floating button. Tap on it and select Screenshots.
6. Your phone will take a screenshot of what the screen is showing.

Use Bixby or Google Assistant

4. Tap on the screen when you want the feature to stop scrolling.
