Assigning in-app actions to squeeze gestures
Per app, you can customize squeeze gestures to do a tap or double-tap on a specific area on the screen.
Note:
If

, you can only customize the short squeeze gesture.
There are default apps that are already predefined with certain actions. See

Important:
You can only assign a tap or double-tap action on the selected screen. A series of touch screen actions cannot be assigned to a squeeze gesture.
Do not add an action in which you need to scroll down the screen to tap something. The created squeeze gesture may not trigger the action if you've scrolled to a different position on that screen.
Actions such as pinch, scroll, and press and hold are currently not supported.
