App to use fingerprint sensor for gesture actions? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There are several apps that are suppose to work with the fingerprint sensor to add gestures, but I think because the Note 4 has the older swipe fingerprint method, none of them work.
Is there a way to make use of the fingerprint sensor?
I can already create gestures other ways, but the fingerprint would be useful for gestures such as scrolling, volume control, media playback control etc.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I was looking for it, too.
I think it needs a new API, which comes only in Android 7...so, Note 4 hasn't received Nougat, the old API won't work for gestures or actions using the fingerprint sensor...only to unlock the phone.
Don't know if Nougat custom roms for Note 4 have the new API implemented, if so, then it will work...since these roms can offer fingerprint unlock like stock roms...

scanner gestures feasibility?

Huawei's other flagship phone Honor 7 has some of the craziest features, i was wondering if most are software based, like the tap and swiping gestures in the similarly positioned fingerprint scanner behind for notif. bar pull down or page scrolling etc etc... is it possible to implement it on the nexus 6p? i reallyy hope someone says yes.
I've been wondering the same thing. The 6P's scanner is the same square sensor on Huawei's other devices, I would think the software features just need to be implemented somehow.
Wondering that too. Would love those gestures on nexus 6p

[Q] is there a way to get stock features on cm13 rom on verizon note 4

I just installed the CM13 ROM but I was wondering if there was a way to get features from stock note 4 on to this ROM like the s pen features, clipboard, air command, and fingerprint lock screen. When i try to activate fingerprint lock screen it just changes to the backup lock instead of using fingerprint (I'm new to this ROM)
Edit: for fingerprint to work all you have to do is swipe your finger over the sensor fast.
Edit: found a good clipboard substitute https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dhm47.nativeclipboard
Is it possible to get s pen features from stock into this ROM?

Fingerprint swipe gestures on Oreo rom

My question is simple..
Why fingerprint swipe gestures was not working on Our Redmi 3s prime running Lineageos Oreo Rom..
All I need to know is, does our redmi 3s prime supports fingerprint swipe direction gestures on Oreo roms??
If it doesn't why, whether it's because of fpc, goodix thing or because of fingerprint gesture controller API not added in custom Rom source??
My answer is simple too.
Use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superthomaslab.fingerprintgestures
What??
What??
What??
I know and used fingerprint quick action and fingerprint gesture ( both for android 6+)apps that we can only use for fp tap, double tap and fast swipe gesture.
You didn't understood my question bro, I'm talking about fingerprint direction swipe gestures which was introduced on Oreo roms ( android 8+) which means you can assign an action for different different swipes such as swipe left, right, up and down..
That's not working on Our Redmi 3s prime running Oreo roms and why it's not working??
@admins, why no one answering this question??

No, the fingerprint sensor on redmi 3s does not support scrolling, no matter how much you try that feature is impossible to get

Customizing gestures in Pie

I was disappointed to find that in Pie there is no back gesture.
I have two questions regarding this
1. is there any way to add a left swipe action (back) to the pill? and
b. is there any way to customize gestures for the fingerprint reader? I can't get third-party fingerprint reader apps to work.
I am locked and not rooted
