Hi,
I am on latest version of coloros 7. I have tried everything I know but have not been able to get rid of these home screen animations which look like brackets at the border of the bottom edges.
Please help.
Attaching pics for clear picture. Note the brackets () at the bottom edges.

I have tried resetting themes to default. Home screen settings to different drawer styles. Changing icon types. Assistive ball off.
Everything literally in home screen and lock screen magazine menu.
The thing is it happens only in full screen mode. With navigation buttons, those brackets dont exist.

Btw, do you have these jn your mobile?

Very strange.

What is "Assistive ball"?
Sorry but I can't replicate this on my device.

Maybe someone can help who has the same issue

Assistive ball is in settings- convenience tools
And are you on latest coloros version c27?
And you don't have these bracket things?

There is also a line in the middle which is aligned with the bottom edge. Its not associated with home screen settings. I have no idea what it is.

Like for example? I literally have no idea and don't want to mess anything. that's y, what should i look for in developer settings?
I have absolutely no idea to be honest.

Have a look and see if there are any toggles you can turn on or off.

One at a time. Check. If no...turn back on/off. Check another.

Just a thought.

As I said...I cannot replicate the issue you have and it is clear that you have some settings on your device that I don't, so I'm kind of looking at this blindly

Ok ok. Thanks anyway ?

On a different topic, could you suggest me a good back cover and screen guard for the device.

Found the solution

This is pretty much a swipe up to trigger google assistant, it appears when you turn on gesture control and it's a prompt (albeit not a very good one) to make you understand how to trigger it .

Since you can't swipe up from the middle to activate the assistant you need to swipe from the corners , do so 5 or 6 times and eventually the prompt disappears.
