Hi, i am aware that hidden applications menu gone with Emui 8.
When you are using home screen with app drawer option, is there a way to hide apps or even lock app drawer with fingerprint?
Use this app. It allows you to enable the hidden app menu gesture again.

Yes. That screenshot was from my phone. Hidden app gesture works fine on my Mate 10. I installed the app from the app store so try that and not the pc tool.
Ok, thank you very much @tboy2000, i will try with app from play store then.
One more quick question pls; hidden application menu can be used with homescreen drawer style also or only available with standart (all icons on homescreen) style?

It works with my all icons homescreen. I haven't tried it with drawer style. That's for you to try.

I've tried both, and hiding apps only seems to work on the standard home screen. I can't figure out how to hide (if it even is possible) in the drawer style...

I am totally with you, i am coming from 3 years old phone and i was able to do it easily.
At least, i wish i had an option to lock app drawer with fingerprint etc...
I dont think it differs anything but using Mate 10 or Pro? @jk1992

Use Nova Launcher (I use Prime version...worth every small penny) and you can hide apps in drawer.
This worked for me after a few tries (did enable option in tweaker tool, but may not be needed) :

Hi
What feature will I lose if I install an Action Launcher or Nova Launcher on my Home, instead of the default Huawei Launcher? In that case, how will I access Google Home.
When you also install Fluid N.G. app from Play store together with Nova Lancher for example you can setup your Home Button the way you want. I have it set to swipe up for Google Home .
Nova launcher together with nova companion. Then you do have all google functionalities.
Was this the answer you needed?
Weather widget is not available on the Nova Launcher.

How about the gesture navigation, knuckle screenshot, split screen etc
They work without any problem on Nova
How do you access Google Assistant with Nova
I have found nova to be the only launcher so far. Pixel launcher, lawn hair and other seem to just crash and smart recovery comes up recommending you uninstall

Try Fluid N.G from the app store, gestures worked well with Nova when I experienced the same issue so this should help.

Action Launcher also works very well
Stock widget doesn't work on any 3rd party launchers....
Recent Apps doesn't work right with nova launcher.
If you want to open the last app and just click the last App on the left(don't swipe), you will land on the Homescreen.
Also sometimes there is a light blue Background in the recent apps view, like if you select something.
Ich wish in the near future there will be an option to use navigation like in Stock Android. I've tried it out and it makes Multitasking really comfortable.
Hi,
i tried the new gesture navigation on EMUI9. It works but the return to home gesture go briefly to task manager before showing home.
did someone manage to avoid this? I'm on stock phone, no root or whatever..
Tried action launcher or nova without success
thank you
Yeah i avoided that by not using gesture. Its really a joke how it works

Fluid NG is the answer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fb.fluid&hl=en
works great with any launcher (I tested with Nova and Action Launcher 5), and its free.
Pro version is not expensive if you need to tweak the setting.

Yeah there are load of 3rd party apps out there but i would preffer to not rely on those bit instead huawei to put their ****s together and not release official rom with the same exactly bugs they had on beta. This specific bug i reported it as a beta tester.

Thank god its android. We can just switch to other solution, or stay with the default one. Having options is good.
Navigation gestures app from xda is pretty nice.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.nobar
Works after adb commands pretty well. But yeah Huawei should just fix their ****. Sometimes I don't know why they beta test their firmware. It seems that they don't fix any things from the beta firmware.
I have disabled the stock launcher since I installed Nova Launcher for my Huawei Mate 20 Pro. After updating to 9.0.0.183, the animations seem to be working fine already.
Anybody else have the same experience?

I just disabled the Launcher. It's working fine now after updating to 9.0.0.183
The only thing that's annoying me now is the front facing camera's stubborn beauty mode that cannot be disabled.
I have loaded the update 182 (yes 182 not 183) from funky Huawei about two weeks ago and that has fixed the one minor issue I've had with Nova Launcher.
It has been working perfectly fine since then.
My only issue now is that the Nova Launcher support has sent me an angry reply to my request because I own a Mate 20 Pro.
Those guys are pretty angry because of the accusations of Huawei intentionally sabotaging them.

I use nova launcher.
you dont understand... can you install newest pixel or lawnchair launcher and set it as default, and give all permissions (and since you disabled the launcher you have to use the navkeys right? ) then reboot.... and look if the new pie gesture ui kicks in.... the recent overview and pill navbar.
get the. apk from xda or apk mirror
because the launcher is responsible for the navigation gestures in android P.
realy hate the emui gestures and wish to use stock android P gestures
this will take max 15min. of your time but help me forever.
thanks in advance

Really? So when swiping up to go to home screen it doesn't show the recent apps for a split second and then go home? It's definitely a bug others have experienced when using gesture nav on emui.

No it works like stock launcher
The gesture navigation works ALMOST perfectly with nova launcher. This is the best I could ask for. But just let me point out some scenarios that it stutters a little bit.
1. The animation when close an app is gone. You can't see the app fading into its position on the home page.
2. The gestures are a bit more sensitive on nova than stock EMUI. For example, swipe up and hold for recent apps. On EMUI launcher, it is about 0.5 seconds. However on nova, it is more like 0.3. Thus I often hold for too long and end up on recent apps instead of home page.
3. Under some special circumstances, the background picture for recent apps screen is the previous app you used. It looks extremely weird. I didn't manage to get a SS of it. Will upload once it happens again.
Having said all of that. I feel this 183 update improved the gestures navigation by a huge leap! Just need time to get use to it.

This was what I was talking about. The recent apps screen bug. But it is not a deal breaker to stop using nova.

I had to go home again to get it to start working. I had to manually perform the gesture to go to home (I have gesture UI rather than the traditional 3 button interface).
No native app launcher has ever given me so much doubt before, I usually went straight to Nova, but OneUI can replace Nova + Sesame(both paid) in most occasions, and it looks really good and seamless.
Any performance/benefits difference you noticed besides Nova's typical customization?
Updated:
Nova vs OneUI, You can see how many frames OneUI drops because of that blur effect, I'd say the case is closed until it gets improved.

I stay with Nova for vertical scrolling in the app drawer and swipe left to Google. During the Pie beta program many of us asked for vertical scrolling but they didn't listen.
Oneui doesn't hide apps... Other than that I feel like they're close
OneUI also supports this fancy UI customization tool made by Samsung called Good Lock that I recently discovered. I've tested it and it works perfectly with my S10+.
You can download it from the Samsung Store if you're in one of the few available regions, or you can just install the APK manually.

I doubt this is unique to the plus but there should be a option in the Home Screen settings to hide apps from the app drawer, unless you were referring to something else?

Nova works great with Good Lock also. Good lock was actually available in 2018, I used it with a S9 Plus. It was disabled during the Pie Beta,but was updated yesterday to work with the stable pie release & the s10 plus

Correct me if I am wrong, but one ui cannot swipe right into googlenow, nor can it lower the notification window by pulling down anywhere on the screen.
I love the idea of removing a 3rd party app, but Nova still seems to be King for my needs.

With the latest Beta, Nova no longer needs TeslaUnread for notifications. There are choices for None, Dynamic badges, Dots, Numeric Dots, or TeslaUnread and they work well on my S9 running Pie. Google Discover has been added with a download of Nova Google Companion.

I agree. Nova mainly so I can have Google now.instead of Bixby home.
I would love to use icon packs system wide, my OCD strikes a bit when the icons on the Homescreen are different to them in menus, apps and mitli tasking view.
I was surprised how smooth one UI runs, I owned a Samsung smartphone years ago from work and it was very laggy. Now, this is my first Samsung, it's very smooth, but I would like more customization and never understood why manufacturers won't support icon packs natively.
On Huawei EMUI you're able to create an own theme with an app where the icons were enabled globally.
I'm currently using one ui. I also have rootless pixel launcher installed. I'm liking what they've done with one ui launcher. With package disabled pro I've frozen all of bixby except for bixby voice. That allows me to change the default bixby key to Google feed. You just select Google for the app and the feed opens right up with a tap of the bixby button. So even though it isn't a swipe from the left it is still a tap on the left for Google feed and one ui.
I tried to like the One UI, but ultimately it had to go. Using Nova mostly because of the google now feed.
