Samsung Good Lock module One Hand Operation + lets you launch your favorite apps faster than ever
Good Lock has become such a staple of the Samsung experience that, for many of us, it’s something we couldn’t do without. One of my favorite modules has always been One Hand Operation +. Weird name aside, the level of customization it gives you over gesture navigation has ruined other phones for me. Whenever I use a device without it, I miss it instantly. Now the module is getting even better, with a new gesture action that helps you open your favorite apps faster than ever.
As spotted by Twitter user TechByBD, the latest update to the module adds a quick launcher feature. As you can see in the GIF above, when you first enable the quick launcher, it’s filled with a random assortment of apps. Thankfully, that can easily be changed, so let’s look at how to enable it, customize it, and whether it’s worth using.
How to use quick launcher
- Open One Hand Operation +.
- Tap on either right handle or left handle based on which you want to use.
- Tap on one of the six gestures, depending on which you’d like to trigger quick launcher.
- Scroll down and tap on quick launcher.
With that done, quick launcher is now assigned to the gesture of your choice. Like the GIF at the beginning, in this state, it’ll just be filled with a handful of your apps — so from here, you’ll want to make it your own.
- Use your assigned gesture and wait for the settings cog to appear next to the launcher before tapping it.
- Tap on the minus symbol next to each icon to remove anything you don’t want.
- To add an app or shortcut, tap on the 3×3 grid in the bottom right.
- Tap on any app or system shortcut you want
