Ever since I switched back to Android after a couple years of using an iPhone SE, i have been missing the iOS feature to open "control center" (iOS term for quick shortcuts) using a swipe up gesture from the bottom of the screen.
This is a great feature that eliminates the need to reach for the top of the screen to pull down the notification shade to access toggles for commonn settings (wifi, cellular, BT, hotspot, torch, etc.). Since we live in an era of huge phones such a feature would have been extremely convenient. Unfortunately it's not implemented in Android.
But I accidentally stumbled upon an app called Neo Launcher that has implemented a similar functionality (kind of, since iPhone control center can be summoned no matter what app you're using, but this only works on home screen).
A dashboard pops up from the bottom of screen, where your thumb can easily reach, with a user-defined shortcut! Toggling wifi and other settings are much easier this way.
I'd highly recommend everyone to give this a try. Personally I've set double tap on screen as a shortcut for the dash.
Android has that too. Try to pull down from the top. Not too much different than swiping up from the bottom
The argument here is that reaching the top of huge phones with one hand is difficult.
Oh I see. I guess I've avoided phones that large lol. I'm on a Zflip3 right now and can reach the whole screen with my thumb. Could be a struggle with a Galaxy note though.
newer I phones also have a swipe from top (the notch iphones) which is basically the same
iirc some old vivo or some other chinese phones had this swipe from bottom because they copied ios
