How To: Get the Pixel's Fingerprint Swipe Notification Gesture on Other Devices
Google's new Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones have a feature that puts their fingerprint scanners to use after you unlock your phone—just swipe down on the scanner from any screen, then you'll see your notifications. It keeps you from having to do hand gymnastics to reach the status bar at the top of your screen, and it gives you easy access to quick information, so it's a win-win.Most modern Android phones have the hardware to pull this off, so we're just lacking the software. To fill that void, an app from developer ztc1997 will now let you touch your finger scanner to open the notification tray on almost any device. It's an app we've covered in the past, but this awesome new functionality was just added in a recent update, so we'll cover the new feature below.Don't Miss: How to Lock Any App Using Your Fingerprint

Step 1: Install Fingerprint Quick ActionAs I mentioned earlier, we've covered this app in the past, back when it was called "Fingerprint to Sleep." But with the new update and new notification functionality, the app has been renamed to "Fingerprint Quick Action."The install process is exactly the same, so just grab the APK from the link below, then use our video tutorial if you'd like more detailed instructions. But once you've got the app installed, there are a few new settings that you'll need to configure, so be sure to read Step 2 below.Download Fingerprint Quick Action (.apk) 
Step 2: Enable the Swipe Notification FunctionalityOnce you've got the app installed, make sure to tick the box next to "Enable Fingerprint Quick Action." From there, select the "Quick Action" option, then choose "Expend Notifications Panel" from the pop-up. Once you've done that, you'll be able to see your notifications at any time just by touching your fingerprint scanner while your phone is unlocked, so it's almost exactly like the new Pixel feature, but it works on any device.Follow Gadget Hacks on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and YouTube Follow Android Hacks on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest Follow WonderHowTo on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Google+

Step 3: Edit the Notes. Since this app functions as a sort of Post-it note for your Notification Center, there's only one sheet available. Whenever you want to change the note, either entirely or just to add or subtract something from it, just tap on the widget in the Notification Center or go directly to the NoteDash app to make your changes.
