How to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar?

by simon in Galaxy S8 How-to Guides, Galaxy S8 new features 41 Comments

Samsung ditched the “signature” capacitive (hardware) navigation buttons (Back, Recents, and Home)  in Galaxy S8 and S8+ as explained in Galaxy S8 layout page and new features of Galaxy S8 page, and embraced the modern software-based on-screen navigation buttons which can be found  in almost all other Android devices.

2) How to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons layout?
3) How to customize background color of Galaxy S8 navigation bar?
4) How to set up Galaxy S8 Home button sensitivity?
5) How to unlock Galaxy S8 and S8+ with Home button?
6) Galaxy S8 navigation buttons disappear in some apps, how to get them back?

But Samsung did one step further to allow you to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar.

Update 1: You can now even choose to hide or show navigation bar in any apps in Galaxy S8 and S8+.!

This Galaxy S8 new feature guide will show you how to use and customize the on-screen Galaxy S8 navigation buttons, and the Galaxy S8 navigation bar.

What can you do to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons, and navigation bar?

In stock Android, the on-screen navigation buttons are fixed, although a few vendors, for example LG, may allow you to add more buttons in the navigation bar.

Samsung used not only different (and a bit confusing as well) icons for the three standard buttons (Recents/Overview, Home and Back), but also made the layout of these navigation buttons customizable in Galaxy S8 and S8+.

For Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ on-screen navigation buttons and the navigation bar, you can:

  • switch locations of the Recents and Back button.
  • customize the background color of Galaxy S8 navigation bar.
  • adjust Galaxy S8 Home button pressure level sensitivity.

Please note, fingerprint scanner was decoupled from the Home button in Galaxy S8 and S8+, and is now relocated to the back of the phone (next to main camera) as detailed in Galaxy S8 layout page.

How to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons layout?

In stock Android, the Back button is to the left of Home button and Recent (aka Overview) button to the right.

But the layout of Samsung’s traditional capacitive buttons is opposite to stock Android’s on-screen navigation buttons.

In Galaxy S8 and S8+, the default layout of Galaxy S8 navigation buttons follows its old capacitive buttons as shown below. This maintains the continuity for seasoned Galaxy phone users.

But for owners who switched from other Android phones, this can be annoying because they will tap wrong buttons too often.

customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar

To address this issue, Samsung allows you to customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons layout. You can re-order Galaxy S8 navigation buttons.

To customize  Galaxy S8 navigation buttons layout, you can follow these steps.

Step 1: Go to Galaxy S8 settings

In Galaxy S8 and S8+, there are many ways to access Galaxy S8 settings, for example,

  • from Galaxy S8 apps screen or Galaxy S8 home screen, open Settings app.
  • from notification pane, tap Settings (gear) icon.

The result is identical. You get the same setting page.

Step 2: Tap Display

You can tap Display in Settings page to enter Galaxy S8 display settings.

Step 3: Tap Navigation bar 

In Galaxy S8 Display settings page, tap Navigation bar as shown below.

customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar

customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar

Step 4:  Tap Button layout

In Navigation bar setting page, you can find some customizable items:

  • Button layout (marked as 1 in the screenshot above) for you to change the layout of on-screen navigation buttons in Galaxy S8 and S8+.
  • Background color for navigation bar (marked as 2) for you to change the background color of the navigation bar.
  • Home button sensitivity (marked as 3) for you to adjust the touch sensitivity (pressure levels) for the Home button.
  • Unlock with Home button (marked as 4) for you to choose whether to unlock the phone with Home button (lock screen security is set to none or swipe).

To customize the layout of Galaxy S8 navigation buttons, tap Button layout.

Step 5: Select the layout of Galaxy S8 navigation buttons

You can now choose the button layout for the Galaxy S8 navigation bar.

Actually, you have only two options.

The Home button is always in the center.

The layout of Galaxy S8 navigation buttons can be either Recents — Home — Back (default) or Back — Home — Recents (as in other Android devices)

For example, you can choose  Back — Home — Recents layout. The  navigation bar will look like this:

customize Galaxy S8 navigation buttons and navigation bar

How to customize background color of Galaxy S8 navigation bar?

By default, Galaxy S8 navigation bar is transparent in Galaxy S8 home screen and apps screen, or light grey in Samsung’s apps.

Samsung allows you to customize the background color of navigation bar in Galaxy S8 and S8+.

You can use any color for Galaxy S8 navigation bar.

To customize background color of Galaxy S8 navigation bar, tap Background color (marked as 2) in navigation bar settings page discussed above.

Please note, the customized background color of the Galaxy S8 navigation bar is for apps made by Samsung only.  Other apps will still use the default black background color for the navigation bar.

How to set up Galaxy S8 Home button sensitivity?

As explained in the missing features of Galaxy S8 and S8+, Samsung very likely planned to put fingerprint sensor under the touch screen and to be integrated with the on-screen Home button.

But this was not materialized in Galaxy S8 and S8+. And Samsung had to relocate the fingerprint scanner into the back of the phone.

This leaves some half-baked features of the on-screen Galaxy S8 Home button.

One of these features is the touch sensitivity of Galaxy S8 Home button.  You can set up the pressure levels (how hard you tap the screen) for the Home button.

As shown in the screenshot above, you can use the slider (marked as 3) to adjust the touch sensitivity for Home button.

How to unlock Galaxy S8 and S8+ with Home button?

By default, the Home button in Galaxy S8 and S8+ cannot wake up the screen.

But you can change this behavior to make it like a hardware button.

As shown in the Navigation bar settings page, you can enable Unlock with Home button (marked as 4 in the screenshot).

When the screen is off, or when always-on display is active, you can press the Home button to unlock the phone and access Home screen directly if your lock screen security setting is none or swipe.

If you set lock screen security as PIN/pattern/password, you will then be directed to unlock the phone.

Galaxy S8 navigation buttons disappear in some apps, how to get them back?

Android supports full-screen immersive mode to get better user experiences.

In this immersive mode, both the status bar in the top of the screen and navigation bar in the bottom of the screen may disappear so that the screen can accommodate more contents.

You can simple drag upwards from the bottom of the screen to bring navigation buttons up again if you need them.

    I set my navigation bar color to black, but there are some apps that when I’m typing, it changes to white.. Also, is there any way to add extra buttons in the navigation bar? Thank you

      It is normal.

      No, you cannot add other buttons to navigation bar. LG and a few other vendors allow you to add other buttons. For example, the notification button or screenshot button is very useful in LG phones.

      Anyway, Samsung does not offer such customization.

      No, only Samsung apps will exactly follow it.

      Third-party apps will use black color.

    S8 break Android functionalities with the touch sensitivity home button.
    Infact when you are in immersive mode, the button is still active and in many games while you are playing you can press the home button accidentally.

      It can be controlled by individual app. When in immersive (full screen) mode, it should be hidden automatically. But it is limited within that app.

      You cannot manually set it because it is an essential part of Android. If you hide it wrongly, you may have no way to control your Galaxy S8.

      No, you cannot. The background color of the navigation bar is always transparent in apps screen and home screen. The background color settings for navigation bar only work with Samsung apps, for example, messages, phones, contacts….

    When using Google Now launcher, the navigation bar is transparent when on the Google Now page. However, if I access Google Now using Nova launcher, the bar is not transparent. Any ideas?

    Reply
    • simon says

      May 5, 2017 at 1:05 am

      This is normal. Google Now page in Google Now launcher or pixel launcher is considered as one of the home screen panel. So the navigation bar is transparent. For Nova launcher, it’s a normal app.

      Anyway, the navigation bar background color settings in Galaxy S8 are for Samsung apps only.

      Yes, you can lock the buttons with game tools (which is part of the game launcher). You just need to enable game launcher in Settings – advanced features – games – game launcher. Then you launch the game from game launcher.

    Thank you so much for the tip on how to restore the navigation buttons on the app screen for my S8. I inadvertently turned it off. Swiping up from the bottom of the screen did the trick and then I was able to permanently restore it by tapping on the little button at the bottom left of the screen. Greg

    yes, I’ve tried changing the colors in settings. I’ve tried using “apply current theme”. Nothing changes it to black. It seems like after one of the recent updates, it changed. I have screenshots i posted on instagram in July showing it matched my theme (pink or black) but my September screenshots show it as white and it’s ugly. It doesn’t match my screen.

      the navigation bar in Home screen and Apps screen should be always transparent. The color customization for the navigation bar should applies to some Samsung apps only.

      Anyway, it seems you found out the cause is the Nova launcher.

      No, the customization is for default Samsung launcher only. Many third-party launchers do NOT follow the customization settings.

I’m not sure if it’s the new update but it’s not the same as the pages shows how it’s set up. My provider is tmobile but I have a Samsung s8. When I use a different theme I can pick the default colors or gives you but not the color wheel it is nowhere to be found. I can share a screenshot but won’t let me upload it in this. Please help I dont understand why its different and why I dont have the color wheel.
