The navigation bar of the Oppo smartphone can be adapted to the user's needs: In addition to the classic virtual buttons, ColorOS also offers a navigation mode with wiping gestures - either from both sides or by moving upwards.

- Tap on Convenience tools

Auto hide virtual buttons
Even if the navigation bar does not take up much space, it can be annoying in certain apps. To hide the navigation bar, the corresponding option must be activated in the settings. A hide icon is then displayed in the bar, which can be used to hide it.
To hide the navigation bar again, wipe from the bottom of the screen to the top.




- Open the Settings
- Tap on Convenience tools
- Tap on Navigation buttons
- Enable or Disable Auto hide virtual buttons
Button Order
If the "Virtual Buttons" are activated on the Oppo-Smartphone, the key combination can be changed:
- Last Apps - Home - Back
- Back - Home - Last Apps
In addition to the three-button navigation, there is also a two-button navigation. Here the "Last Apps" button is omitted. To access this, the Home button must be held down or wiped up.
