Just upgraded from the Moto One Action to the G Stylus, definite upgrade for sure.
One thing that concerns me is that they appear to have removed the One-Button Navigation option for 3rd party launchers, I know 3rd party launchers as a default in Android 10 don't integrate with the gesture navigation as of yet and default to the 3-button option.
The Moto One Action runs Android 10 but had that Moto one-button option, is it hidden or just gone on this newer model?
I'm using the one button/gesture system navigation with the included launcher on the stylus. Worked out of the box. There's a setting under settings, system, gestures, system navigation to enable it.

Again, fully aware that with a stock launcher the default Android 10 one-button nav works fine, I am speaking specifically about the Moto Gestures that allowed their version of one-button nav on Android 10.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about using the included launcher with system navigation gestures on the Stylus since you mentioned the lack of gesture system navigation with a 3rd party launcher. I don't have a Moto One Action so I guess I'm unclear about what referring to. I don't have a Moto Gestures app on my Stylus. I do have a Moto Actions app that includes touch screen & accelerator gestures such as chopping to toggle the flash(light), three finger screenshot, swipe to shrink, etc. Perhaps that's what you're looking for.
Hopefully Google keeps their promise and enables gesture system navigation soon. Then we'll see how long Motorola takes to release an update.

All good, no worries. These features are also on the G7, X4 and the Moto One series, if it was a specific thing to one model I wouldn't even be questioning why those chose to remove actual helpful functions. There's no technical reason for not having them on the newer model(s).

it's not a thing on Android 10-launched Motos, they removed it in favor of Google's gesture navigation

Hi, The issue with the Android 10 Google One Button Navigation is that in the Google version, the longer bar, the back page feature which worked well in the Moto G, shorter bar, does not work in Googles bar.
One example is if you are using the Amazon Shopping app and selected a product to view, you cannot swipe left in the long Google bar to return to the menu as you can do with the shorter Moto G bar. You need to return to the Amazon Home page and then start the search from the beginning again.
This error also occurs within other apps when wanting to swipe left to return to a previous page.
When selecting the longer Google Bar in the Moto G8, the same problem occurs when navigating within an app. Fortunately the Moto G8 affords the option of choosing the Moto G shorter Navigation Bar.
If you swipe left in the longer Google bar, it goes back to the previous screen of the previous app.
Please can someone suggest how to get the shorter Moto G bar back again? We have Moto G7, G8 and G9 phones, the G7 and G8 still have the shorter Moto G bar, the Moto G9 does not have the option to select it in the Navigation settings and we really don't want to go back to the three button navigation. Thank you.

Can someone raise this with the Motorola team? I just returned my Moto G 5G phone because of stupid the android 10 system longer bar navigation. I really wanted Motorola's own one shorter bar nav!!!!
I've been debating this phone vs the g power for more storage, but it seems like the g power has more root support for it and more hacking in general that has been done for it? Anyone that can give me some feedback here? I was hoping there'd be a lot more options for custom ROMs or am I missing something?
To force one button navigation with a 3rd party launcher use adb and enter:
adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural
(to disable: just change "enable" to "disable")

to go back with Google's gesture navigation, you swipe in from either edge of the screen
@tendiez01 - Thank you for that "swipe in from either edge of the screen" suggestion, it works perfectly.

Is the clear all recent app button (Which is usually found on left bottom of screen while viewing all recent apps) not available on moto g ?
Usually, when i earlier had to clear all my recent apps from my htc one v, i used this button and it would clear them all.
Now in moto g, i found that i have to manually swipe each recent app displayed to clear them, why is there no clear all button present ?
You can add it through xposed + gravitybox.
That's not a stock Android feature I believe.

I own the D838 Hong Kong version which came with the 10F software and I have now installed the 20C kdz. Everything works great and I'm loving the device as expected (second one that I have owned) however, on my previously owned LG G2 and LG G3's there was a software implementation from LG which enabled the ability to hide the navigation keys automatically in any app that the user wanted.
Could anybody tell me if this implementation is available in any of the custom roms for this device, or indeed, any of the stock roms which are available for other variants of this device?
It is a fantastic feature which I would really love to have on my G2 Pro to fully utilise the gorgeous, massive screen.
when you run an app or game in full sceen nav bar automatically will be disapeared.. and if not pull down the status bar and touch it.

I'm not quite sure if you understood what I'm talking about? How do I run Twitter/Facebook for example in full screen - without navigation buttons being visible?
If you watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABy2x2z0DRM 14 seconds in, you will see the hide home touch buttons option that I am talking about.
This is from the F350L variant and is also present on several other LG devices. I can't understand why it is not present on my D838 variant it is such a great function to utilise the full screen. I just hope it will be introduced in an update very soon.
Any One Can Port Moto e4 Plus Moto app and Moto Action app for MOTO G4 Plus . coz it has One-hand mode. i am share APP from E4plus link is here. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0vM-_YJzrIPWWpGdzZnSUcza2M
By one handed mode, do you mean where you can shrink the screen? If so, our G4 Plus Moto app already has that function. You can find it under the Moto app > Actions > swipe to shrink screen.
This screen shot is taken on the NPJS25.93-14-8 update (June 2017)

Ahh, I see what you mean, similar to how the G5 Plus fingerprint sensor can be used to swipe?
I don't know if our fingerprint sensor supports those functions natively anyway (you'll note the sensor is wider on the E4 Plus/G5 Plus than on the G4 Plus), but let's see if anyone can port it.
Any update on this?
Quick question. I've had my phone since Monday. I'm fairly used to the gesture system available in OP6 for recent and back. OP8t throws that out the window with Google Assistant and makes back gesture from the side of the screen... In a lot of the apps I use, side swipe is used for a different function so I end up going back all the time.
Any way to change this without root? Waiting for that to be fully developed before I hop on it.
Setting >> gesture
Choose 3 buttons

Change to 3 buttons navigation, and use Vivid Navigation Gestures app to emulate the OP6 style gesture. In the app you can hide the stock navigation bar.
Some users are also reporting that left and right edges are not very sensible to single touches. Probably an overprotective edge rejection. The corners are affected by this, and google assistant, so if you are using gestures it can be a pain to use any buttons in that area.

I noticed this too, I thought my screen is faulty. Single touch is fine, but touch and hold doesn't work all the time. It's frustrating.

Sorry when I commented back then, I hadn't received my 8T yet. Hiding navigation bar doesn't work on Android 11 yet, so Vivid NG can't hide the nav bar now.
I used navigation gestures for awhile...many months ago. In my opinion it is like so many other "changes" on phones...zero bezels (stupid), no headphone jack (stupid), and many others...and I feel that navigation gestures are stupid also because they never seem to work the way people want them to work!!!! What is wrong with the 3 button navigation that just simply works? I went back to this method several weeks/months ago and never missed the gestures because the buttons ALWAYS work the way you expect them to work...so simple. SMH
Running Android 10 on a Motorola Power 2021.
My browser (Brave) has no button to back up to the previous page. This appears to be because I enabled Motorola one-touch nav when I configured the phone a few hous ago.
I want my back button restored, which I think means disabling one-button nav. The trouble is, all the recipes II found with web searches don't match the UI of my Moto app, which appears to have been changed recently and no longer has the menu structure in the recipes.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Found it. The toggle is under System -> Gestures
