      The only gesture I don’t have that I would like to add back to my android is the old Motorola hatchet-chopping motion. You’d hold the phone sideways and chop the air like a hatchet 2-3 times and your desired action would execute. I used mine for the flashlight and it was constantly useful.

          I used to use those Moto Gestures on LineageOS BTW. There were many good Motorola phones supported by custom ROMs.

      It also made it a lot easier to migrate between devices, and I’m the earlier data had features that are common now but not so much then.

      I dropped it due to crashing issues with a new phone. Seems a good thing that I did
