Bring the top of the screen down
Reach a button at the very top of a tall phone with one thumb.
Phones are taller than they were, and Done is often at the very top. Reachability slides the screen halfway down.
It lasts a few seconds, you press what you came for, and it springs back.
Key points
- Reachability slides the top of the screen down to your thumb
- It lasts a few seconds and returns on its own
What to remember
- A short swipe on the very bottom edge is the gesture.
- It lowers the screen for a few seconds, then puts it back.
Try this
Turn Reachability on, then swipe down on the very bottom edge of your screen.
