I know you can on ADW EX..... can't remember whether Go Launcher or Launcher Pro can.....haven't used those in quite a while....
Long days and pleasant nights............
ADW Launcher Ex does that. it's what i use. then just set gestures - swipe down - open notifications.
oh damn, thanks anyways
im on LPP
Launcher Pro does do this. At least hides the notifcation bar. I use a swipe up to show the notifications. Doesnt take to long to get used to..
Also try Zeam if you prefer something lightweight.

Go Launcher has a function you can set to draw the status bar up and down. It works very well, Drag up and it goes away. Drag down and it appears. Drag down and notifications then drag down.

ADW is what i'm using now and am loving it for this reason. On my hero and evo i always used lp, when i got the epic it was go launcher. Even though i used ADW in the past i just stumbled across that feature recently and it is by far my favorite.
+1 for zeam on lightweight launchers.
Ics launcher will let you hide the notification bar and give you a taste of ICS at the same time

im using launcher pro and i do not see any options to use a 'swipe' action for custom actions.
how ever i do have my status bar hidden and changed my home key button to show/hide my notifications instead of showing a preview of all my screen which works better for me since im only using 3 screen

long press one of the dock icons, you can then choose "Swipe gesture"
I do the same as lilmexx, hide notification and swipe up across my dock icon to open the notifications.

oooh okay i gotcha.. forgot about those settings. pressing the home button for me seems to work better though & faster as sometimes it doesn't pick up my swipe action on the 1st try all the time

SWIPE NAVIGATION
ABOUT
Swipe Navigation allows you to execute actions by simple swiping from the edge of your screen, a bit like pie controls but without any ui elements which makes it a lot faster and easier to navigate. Swipe Navigation also has a dock that supports a unlimited amount of actions

HOW DO I HIDE MY NAVIGATION BAR
The best way to hide your navigation bar is with your ROM settings but if your ROM does not support this you can used a Xposed module or you can add qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to your system/build.prop file.
Here is a video on how to edit you build.prop file VIDEO GUIDE
SYSTEMUI CRASHES WHEN I LAUNCH GOOGLE NOW ON TAP
This is a bug with android and google has been notified of this problem. https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=193391
The reason this happens is when you hide your navigation bar with qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 the animation crashes when trying to launch google now on tap.
Luckily there is a hack to get it working, what you will need to do is force the animation to play without using google now on tap and there are a few ways to do this.
If you turn on "OK GOOGLE" detection from any screen or if you use nova launcher/apex launcher/etc... go into settings and turn on "OK GOOGLE" voice activation
then say "OK GOOGLE" and the animation will play, a white border around the edge of your screen.
Once the animation has played google now on tap will start to work.
Warning if you reboot your phone you will need to say "OK GOOGLE" again.
SWIPE NAVIGATION IS NOT WORKING
Screen DPI set to low
One person reported that when they set there DPI from 320 to 260 swipe navigation would not work correctly
SuperSU out dated
Don't forget that SuperSU is still in beta for marshmallow so make sure your up to date
SELinux not allowing Swipe Navigation to inject Events
I'm still not 100% sure why some people are experiencing this problem maybe when SuperSU goes stable for marshmallow this will be fixed but for now here are a few checks you can do:
In advanced settings test other SU contexts
Make sure SuperSu/ROM/Kernel are all up to date
Make sure your ramdisk has been patched correctly modified boot.img by Chainfire
if all fails download SELinuxModeChanger and set your SELinux to permissive If you don't want to set your SELinux to permissive you could downgrade to version 3.0.3 or use without root version

Well i made the app so i would say yes but you would need to try it for your self so you can decide what you like better
I just bught this app for support, good work mate.
I was using free, so here are my impressions/requests:
1) Different color for basic gesture actions (left,center, right, left edge, right edge)
2) Dock settings is a cluttered chaos, no need for so many options. What i would like to see is option for folders or something similar.
Also a 'set to default' option would be nice for values.

i was thinking about adding glowing for different swipes so you can see what one your doing
dock settings well yes its a bit cluttered but i need that many settings if you press the floating button there are some presets you can use
(use a preset as a starting point or just use the way a preset is and pretend there are no settings)
folders would need a full rewrite on how the dock works but i don't want to do that i may make a extension for that you would have to download separately and would work with all other apps
dock has default but settings does not i was thinking about adding some presets for the other settings as well like the dock settings
I was thinking different colors in the bottom bar, for every 'area'
Also, there could be a ' set to default' option in every setting, next to 'cancel' and 'ok'
One other thing that could be configurable, is swipe distance on dock. If i wanna reach apps, there is a lot of distance.
Keep up the good work.
nice

Great app! Was looking for something like this but the swipe back xposed module was never consistent enough ...
some suggestions:
1. the home button is actually what i use the least, there is an option to change the size of the left and right most swipe areas, but can there also be an option to change the size of the center (home) swipe area? this will avoid the "back" and "recent apps" swipe areas being too small when the "search" and "menu" swipe areas are expanded
2. is it possible to add chrome actions (back/forward, next/previous tab, etc.) into the custom action list? it appears possible since the chromepie xposed modules and gesture navigation app have these shortcuts ... that would make chrome navigation a lot more user-friendly

There is currently no way to resize the home button
Back would be just the normal back action
If you go into actions at the bottom is more... Within more is forward
Switching tabs i was not able the find the keycode in the list that does that but
Here is something built into chrome you may not of known about
If you slide your finger across the top url bar it will switch across tabs
But i think this does not work if you have your tabs in recents if you have your tabs in recents then you could use switch to previous app the switch between your last 2 tabs apart from that i dont know

yes, i know about the gesture to swipe tabs in chrome. however it's not that useful a gesture when using the phone one-handed unless you have extra long fingers ...
i tried hard to find the keycode to swipe tabs in chrome too ... even connected to a bt keyboard to see if i could find it. but it's definitely possible since chromepie can do it, maybe it is a combination of keycodes simultaneously?
anyway, great app! got through my first day using it instead of the navbar and it feels very intuitive already
thanks

Jealous of the cool new gesture navigation feature on the Apple iPhone X, Android P, or OnePlus 5T/OnePlus 6? With Navigation Gestures, you don't have to go out and buy a new phone if you want to change the way you use your phone. This app brings gesture navigation to any Android device!
Best of all, with Navigation Gestures you can completely hide the stock navigation bar without root! This is the only gesture control app with this feature.
Swipe left, right, up, or down. Swipe up and hold. Tap. Double tap. Long press. There's a lot of ways you can interact with the gesture bar to control your phone. Don’t like how the gesture bar looks? You can customize its appearance! Here’s what you can do:

* Media actions are not guaranteed to work with every app. Media actions use standard Android APIs to work with most apps.
** If you notice that an app is "slow" to launch after using the pill to trigger the home button, that's because of an obscure change made all the way back in Android 4.4 KitKat. Unless you have this Xposed Module or a custom ROM installed with the patch, there's no way around it.
***Lock Screen is compatible with the vast majority of devices. How it works is like this: Makes screen brightness and display timeout minimum and then displays a fullscreen black activity until the phone actually enters sleep mode from the timeout (~5 seconds.) There are other ways to lock the screen but we decided against them, at least for this release.
****Screenshot action uses the MediaProjection API, which is normally used to record the screen. Here, we just record the screen for a single frame. This is the only way pre-Android P for it to work. Screenshots are saved to /Pictures/NavigationGestures

Frequently Asked Questions
Help, I uninstalled the app and I can't access my navigation bar anymore!
Please connect to your computer and run the following command:
Code:
adb shell wm overscan reset
Help, I uninstalled the app and the original navigation bar keeps hiding itself!
Please connect to your computer and run the following command:
Code:
adb shell settings delete global policy_control
Can we add a feature where the pill is in its own separate area so it doesn't overlap with certain UI elements?
No, sorry. We are already pushing the screen content down to hide the nav bar. Adding this feature would require us to push the screen content up as well. We can’t have it both ways.
There's a "white line" at the bottom of the screen!
This is NOT a bug. This is a side-effect of a change we intentionally made after version 1.0.0 because without it, many Samsung, Motorola, and Xiaomi devices were reporting major bugs (eg. black screen after unlocking which made the phone unusable.) The “white line” is caused by the navigation bar being hidden 99.99% but not 100% (ie. we hiding the navigation bar entirely except for 1 pixel.) So the “white line” is actually just your navigation bar that’s colored white. We added an Experimental Setting called "Use Full Overscan" which gets rid of the white line. Use it at your own risk.
Pill doesn't work with Samsung DeX/Samsung Good Lock!
Android prevents third-party apps from showing overlays on top of SystemUI apps like the status bar and lock screen. You can use the blacklist function in Behavior settings to make the original nav bar show in these apps.
Pill doesn't show when you open the camera from the lock screen, answer a call from the lock screen, or open a notification for quick reply from the lock screen!
Android prevents third-party apps from showing overlays on top of SystemUI apps like the status bar and lock screen. This also includes calls, apps, or notifications answered from the lock screen. The pill cannot be shown until you unlock the device.
Pill doesn't show in Facebook Messenger, Drupe, or other floating apps!
Go to Experimental Settings and select the "Keep Pill Shown in other Overlay Apps." Pick Messenger, Drupe, etc. in this list.
Pill doesn’t work with screen pinning.
We have no way of simulating a long press on the back button without root. A tentative solution we are looking into is detecting when the phone enters a pinned screen state and disabling the pill to bring back the stock nav bar.
Home action doesn't work on the OnePlus 5!
OxygenOS prevents the app from performing the home action if you both enable the software navigation bar and disable the "always enable home button" option in Button settings. To fix this, please enable the "always enable home button" option.
Pill keeps "jumping" up and down with the navigation bar!
This means you either enabled Immersive Mode manually (ie. not from the app) or another app triggered Immersive Mode which is interfering with our app. Here are some possible causes and solutions:
Nova Launcher: In the "Notification Bar" section under "Look & Feel," there may be a "Hide Navigation Bar" option. If there is, check to make sure that it is disabled.
LG G6/LG V20/LG V30/LG G7 ThinQ: Go to*Settings > Display > Home touch buttons > Hide Home touch buttons and disable the "lock/hide icon" option up top and uncheck every app in the list.
Samsung Galaxy S8/Samsung Galaxy Note 8/Samsung Galaxy S9: Go to*Settings > Display > Nav Bar > Show and Hide Button and turn off the toggle up top and uncheck every app in the list.
Feature requests
Is it possible to keep the pill in the same spot when rotating the screen?
We will be adding this as a feature in a future release.
Can we add an action to launch a shortcut/activity?
Yes, that is planned for a future release (premium.)
Can we add Tasker integration?
Yes, that is planned for a future release (premium.)
Can we add a swipe down and hold gesture?
Yes, that is on our todo list.

There's no difference with running this on a rooted device right now except it'll make setup easier (you don't need to use your PC for set up if you're rooted.)
In a future release we may allow for shortcuts/intents to be sent so you can customize the action to your heart's content (and potentially use root to do more actions.)
Also, if there's enough demand we may use input KeyEvent commands to inject button presses rather than the Accessibility API. This should give better performance but it requires root. It's not something we've implemented yet though.

Well, for me is no big deal. But for others, running ADB could be. I don't think it's right to not be able to skip that permission, since, you can(almost) disable completely the taskbar..
when the typing, pill is up-on the keyboard. it must always be in the bottom.
Wow.. cool :good:
@MishaalRahman: APK ?

Great app but after I enabled Navigation Gestures. My icons/screen move to the right side. I'm using S9+ . Please advise.

That is very strange. This seems to only be happening on Samsung phones. We asked Max Weinbach who has an S9 to test it and he never had this issue. We'll have to figure out why that happens.
Thanks for this app, I'm having fun playing with it.
Using it on Oneplus 5t oreo stable 5.1.1 magisk root, all permissions granted, premium addon installed, nova launcher beta.
When I set the vibration to 0ms when I exit that page of settings the vibration gets automatically reset to the default 50ms.
This does not seem to occur on any setting from 1ms upwards. I am interested to see if anyone else can reproduce this behaviour.
The way the pill works with SwiftKey keyboard is interesting, perfectly functional but not an ergonomic location on a longer screen for me.
Edit: ninja'd by the OP, see why you've done it that way with the keyboard now.

I see now. It only happened when doing gesture up on the screen for "All Apps" the only way for me to make it normal again by turn the the screen off and turn it on again.
anyone know how to turn off that system prompt displaying over other applications on notification? kinda annoying...btw using emui 8 oreo 8.1
Working fine on my Xperia Z5 running stock nougat...
Pill on top of the Keyboard is the safest position in my opinion to avoid accidentally pressing it when tapping the space key..
I hope you can introduce more swiping features in your future updates.
Great work.
Edit:
In some games the pill disappears completely leaving no option to exit the game. What I did was to go to settings via control pannel.
I've been using gesture navigations on my old P30 Pro and enabled it for the S22 Ultra. I've noticed that when navigation is set to "swipe from sides and bottom", it introduces special animations when minimizing apps/going back to the homescreen, that is different from the animations when using "swipe from bottom" gestures or when using navigation bar buttons. With "swipe from sides and bottom" selected, whenever I do the home gesture which is slide up from the bottom of the screen, it plays the return home/minimize app animation and I notice that I have to wait for the animation to finish before I could perform my next swipe gesture. For Nova, Apex, Microsoft and several other launchers that I've tested, I notice that I need to wait for the animation to finish before I could do another gesture like opening the app drawer by swiping up. This apparently happens to all launchers except for the default One UI launcher - where even if the animation is not yet finished, I can swipe up and open the app drawer. This delay does not happen to any launcher when using swipe form bottom gestures or navigation bar buttons. Is there a way to fix this?
Also, is there a way to use edge panel in landscape? On my old Huawei, their version of the edge panel works in any orientation. Basically, I just need a way to open apps in a popup window in landscape where I can choose which app i could open instead of opening the app first, and then choosing to open it in a popup window using the recent apps/task manager button.
I was thinking the same from a couple days, but too lazy to start a thread
With third part launchers, sometimes when I return to home, if I try to open an app or make some gesture, the phone open an app himself, casually...
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who noticed this nuance. TS explained everything what I had in mind for a loooooong time.
Is there any way to make 3rd party launcher "act like the default" when it comes to animations?
Note: I'm using Motorola Edge 30 Ultra so it doesn't matter whether it's a Samsung phone or not. Animations and gestures behave differently in any 3rd party launcher.
"adb shell settings put global force_fsg_nav_bar 1" this script does the trick but only until your next reboot.
is there a way to keep the nav bar hidden permanently ? any luck anyone ?
thanks, cheers
Why don't you just enable hide Fullscreen indicator in settings?
My mistake, wasn't clear enough..
I am trying to use a third party launcher with full screen gestures but Miui does not allow that
I don't think that's possible. There's a workaround via FNG app, in Wich you set the bottom quick action as an app and then you select your launcher, without setting it as default launcher itself. But it's not very reliable and does not work all the time. You'll get often pushed to MIUI launcher. You'll also have to hide the nav pill in settings wich makes apps to look weird (especially the keyboard)
This is what I did to use my 3rd party launcher with gestures:
