Button Order
When using the control bar (navigation bar), the buttons are arranged in the order of Back, Home, and Background Daps. In addition to allowing you to change the button layout, the LG device also allows you to add functions that differ depending on the device. In addition to the standard control bar buttons, the following functions are available:
- Open notification bar
- Capture+ (Create screenshot)
- QSlide (apps in the window)
- SIM (dual SIM change)
Up to five buttons can be added to the control bar on the LG device.






- Open the Settings
- Tap on Display
- Tap on Home touch buttons
- Tap on Button combination
- Tap and hold desired Button
- Move the button to desired position
Change Color of Navigation bar
By default, the colour of the control bar on the LG device is set to white. The colour can be changed to pale paste colours. Unfortunately, it is not possible to select your own colour for the navigation bar.




- Open the Settings
- Tap on Display
- Tap on Home touch buttons
- Tap on desired Color
Change Type
The control bar (navigation bar) is used on the LG device by default using the buttons, but in addition to the button navigation, it can also be operated using gestures, although the gestures vary or are available depending on the model.
For example, to display the last opened app, you only have to wipe from the control bar upwards.




- Open the Settings
- Tap on Display
- Tap on Home touch buttons
- Choose between Buttons only and Gesture and buttons
Disable navigation bar in apps
On the LG device, the control bar (navigation bar) can be automatically hidden in selected apps, allowing apps to be launched in full screen mode.
To hide the navigation bar during use, simply wipe from the bottom of the screen to the top and the control bar will be displayed for 3 seconds before it disappears again.






- Open the Settings
- Tap on Display
- Tap on Home touch buttons
- Tap on Hide Home touch buttons
- Enable or Disable desired app
- Confirm with OK
Show Lock/Hide Icon
If apps are opened on the LG device, a lock/hide icon is displayed on the left edge of the control bar, if not hidden. By tapping this icon twice, the control bar (navigation bar) for the open app can be shown or hidden. The selected setting is saved, so the control bar is shown or hidden the next time it is opened.




- Open the Settings
- Tap on Display
- Tap on Home touch buttons
- Enable or Disable Show lock/hode icon
