ColorOS provides multiple navigation methods to navigate through your phone. In ColorOS 7, two new navigation methods have been added to your OPPO phone i.e. Swipe gestures from both sides and two-button navigation. Both these methods allow you to navigate more easily and conveniently. This navigation method is especially useful for devices with large and curved screens. You can use swipe gestures to go back, open the recent menu, go home & switch to the previous app. The new navigation gesture will provide a better visual experience that is fast and smooth to operate the phone. Follow the article below to learn more.
