OxygenOS 13 Shelf feature
You can now set your One Launcher home page to replace your Google Feed. This can happen due to Google’s mobile services requirements. For context, OnePlus combines this with an action that pops up from the top right corner in the notification tray.
And now OnePlus Shelf has launched an app with this trigger action. If you drag the shade down to access the shelf and drag it up again, you’ll be back on the home screen because you’ve technically exited the OnePlus Shelf app instead of returning to the previous app.
Additionally, you see more rounded icons compared to the older OxygeOS version, including a more transparent background with wallpaper at a glance on the home screen.
How to enable/disable the OnePlus Shelf?
You can simply swipe down from the top-right edge of the screen to enter the OnePlus Shelf. However, according to some of the new models, the company may have changed the enabling pattern of the function. In that case, you can follow the given steps:
- Long press anywhere on the screen
- Click on the Customize tab
- Tap on the Enable Shelf option
- Go to Settings > Special Features > Shelf.
