Swipe-up Gesture Navigation on OPPO Phone
The Swipe-up gestures on your OPPO phone allow you to hide the navigation keys and use your phone on full screen. Instead of using the navigation keys, such as the Recent Task key, Home, and the Back button, you can use the gesture layouts available on your OPPO device. To know how you can enable and use the Swipe-up gesture, keep reading below!
Note: Available only for ColorOS 5.0 to ColorOS 11.1 devices. Check your phone's ColorOS version in [Settings] > [About phone].
The Swipe-up gesture navigation is not available for ColorOS 11.2 and above. However, you can still use the navigation features of your phone by going to [Settings] > [Additional Settings] / [System Settings] / [Convenience Aid] > [System navigation] / [Navigation keys].
