Honor 9X series on EMUI 10.1 getting gesture navigation, system improvements and July 2020 security update

While the global users of Honor 9X and 9X Pro waiting to receive EMUI 10.1 for their devices, the Honor 9X series in China, running on EMUI 10.1, has now started receiving some new features improvements.

CHANGELOG:

Gesture Navigation: Adds gesture support for switching between apps. Swipe across the bottom edge of the screen or in an arc across the bottom to switch between apps. To learn more about this gesture, go to Settings > System navigation > Gestures > Settings > Switch between apps.

System: Plays an animation when you touch the shortcut switches on the notification panel. Improves the user experience with Multi-Window.

Knuckle Gestures: Improves the user experiences with the knuckle gesture features.
