Hello. I have had my s 26 ultra for a week now. Somehow and arrow key has shown up on my home screen. In the middle of the screen right side .touch it and it changes to the next home screen. I keep hitting it by mistake and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. It has been there I don't know of I added it by mistake. Anyone know how to get rid of this arrow ,?

That is the back gesture. You can go back to the previous screen/action by swiping from either side of the screen.

You can adjust your swipe gestures to your liking using Samsung's One Hand Operation+ app

Download here: https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.android.sidegesturepad

If you want to use buttons instead of gestures, you can go to Settings > Display > Navigation Bar > Buttons

If you use already use navigation buttons and are seeing an arrow on right swipe that goes forward, not back, that is most likely caused by one hand operation+. Go into the app via Good Lock and make sure you have not inadvertantly set up a gesture.

Hope this helps!

I've never seen anything like that. Check your accessibility settings, for it could be something in there that you enabled?

Huh.i went into accessibility functions . Had 4 that were on turned one off I wasn't sure what it was and the arrow is gone. Not sure what one I turned off though. Thank you I think that did it.

Yeah it definitely seemed like it was an accessibility thing. Awesome, I'm glad it worked, though. Can you accept that as the resolution? It helps me reach badges haha
