Apart from the iconic TouchWiz that differentiates a Galaxy device from the rest, Samsung offers plenty more unique features. One such unique element is offered in the one-handed mode of Galaxy devices, which makes it much easier to navigate a large screen with one hand.
If you do not own a Galaxy device, but don’t want to miss out on this cool feature, there is a way to get one-handed mode on any Android. However, this tweak is not as simple as installing an app, since you will need a rooted Android device with Xposed Framework installed.
With the root access and SuperSU installed, you can go ahead and install the Xposed Framework by following the guide given here. Remember, that rooting your Android device will void its warranty, so perform these steps at your own risk.
The default setting is 100 for Left and Top and can be easily adjusted by moving the numbers around. We suggest you start with the small number on the scale since a large value can screw up the display and make it difficult to revert back to normal.
