Android smartphones come with an easy back gesture that lets you go back to the previous screen or home screen with a single swipe. But sometimes it accidentally takes you out of the app, which is quite irritating when you are performing an important task on your phone.

Meanwhile, to get rid of this problem, Google is bringing the Predictive back gesture with the upcoming Android 14 operating system. This feature will give you a preview of the previous screen before performing the back gesture.

9To5Google has spotted this feature working on the Google Calendar app. A person opens for an event and then slowly swipes back. While swiping, the fullscreen events page shrinks until it starts showing the previous screen, which is the calendar’s schedule list view.

This is how the feature prevents users from accidentally exiting the app in the middle of a task. The procedure is then coupled with an animation from Google Calendar that shows an inline event card contract in the list.

It’s worth mentioning that Android 13 users can also test the predictive back gesture on apps like the Google Phone and Google TV after enabling it from the Developer options. When you use the back gesture, these supported apps will show you exactly where you will reach when the step is done.

Samsung Galaxy smartphone and tablet users will be able to access the Predictive back gesture with the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update next year. We might more information through the Android 14 developer preview that may start at the beginning of 2023.
