Galaxy S8 Tip: Use fingerprint sensor gestures to access the notification shade

-

We’ve already brought you a long list of Galaxy S8 Tips & Tricks to help you get the most out of your new Samsung flagship smartphone. Today, we have another one. You must already know that the Galaxy S8′s fingerprint sensor is placed at the back, alongside the camera. The difference of opinion regarding the new placement notwithstanding, the Galaxy S8′s fingerprint sensor has another trick up its sleeve besides controlling access to the device.

The fingerprint sensor supports gestures which can be used to open and close the notification shade. You swipe down on the fingerprint sensor to open the shade and up to close it. This feature can be located inside the Settings menu and is disabled by default.

Here’s how you can enable it on your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+:

Step 1: Open the Settings app from the app drawer or by tapping on the gear icon in the notification shade.

That’s it. That’s all you need to do to enable the finger sensor gesture feature on your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+. It’s pretty easy to enable this feature and it does make life easier if you’re using the fingerprint sensor as the primary screen lock type on your phone.

Google Maps tests directions screen with refreshed Material Design, rolls out For You tab to 130 countries

With every few updates, Google Maps seems to walk closer and closer to a full-fledged refresh of its Material interface, helping it go along with the new direction Google is taking this year with its app design language. We've seen a new look for the main interface , an updated side menu , overhauled hotel listings , new fonts in many places throughout the app, a persistent Overview/Reviews/Photos bar on some place listings, and even an update to the look of the app on Android Auto . But over the past couple of days, one more part of the app is getting its re-looking session: Directions. For the longest time now, Google Maps has had a blue background behind the from/to directions boxes. The new UI switches that to more white, with dark grey text and icons, and some blue accents for the selected mode of transportation and starting step-by-step guidance.
