One of the Pixel’s more unique features is the ability to swipe on the fingerprint sensor to toggle the notification panel. When the gesture was revealed to be Pixel-exclusive, some Nexus owners were upset. In fact, there was so much outrage that Google finally said they would look into it.
App developer SuperThomasLab aims to solve this issue with ‘Fingerprint Gestures,’ an application that does exactly what it sounds like. You can configure tapping, double-tapping, or swiping on your device’s fingerprint reader to perform a variety of functions.
