Left-handed people have to adapt to technology in a society where tools and functions designed for right-handed people predominate.
When using a mobile phone, for example, the default options on the device - such as selection boxes or scroll bars - are usually located on the right side of the screen. This makes it difficult for them to use it, as they are used to using their left hand in their daily lives.
However, Android incorporates a "left-handed mode" that can be activated to change the arrangement of elements on the screen so that it is more comfortable to use for left-handed people. If you are one of them, activate it now on any Android device by following these simple steps:
How to activate left-handed mode on Android step by step
Left-handed mode is natively integrated into Android, so it is not necessary to access third-party applications to activate it, you just need to follow a series of steps. It is important to note that the route may change slightly depending on the device.
– First go to the operating system configuration options and click on “About device”.
– Click seven times on the build number of the mobile customization layer, in our case it is MIUI because we are using a Xiaomi smartphone.
– A notice will appear that Android Developer Mode has been activated. It will indicate something like “You are already a programmer”.
– Now go back to the settings and access, from settings, “Developer options”.
– Once there, you can activate the “Force layout direction” tab.
After following these steps the user interface will change orientationthe icons will be observed as if they were in a "mirror mode".
In fact, the three Settings dots will be located on the left side, like the rest of the buttons. This will make it easier for people who mainly use their left hand to handle the device, select and slide the phone.
To disable left-handed mode on an Android phone, you must follow the same route and deactivate the “Force layout direction” tab.
