Samsung’s latest Edge UX added to the Look SDK
Samsung has opened new opportunities for the developers with the new Look SDK. The company has now added the Edge UX to this SDK, which essentially deals with the functionality on the curved edges of the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge as well as the recently announced Galaxy S6 Edge.
This new UX for the Galaxy S6 Edge gives developers the ability to add a new Feeds Panel, which can offer data like notifications, sports scores, stocks etc. To enable this feature, users will have to perform a swipe gesture (upwards and downwards) on the edge of the display.
Samsung recommends developers to use a black background since only the edges of the display are supposed to show the notification while the rest of the display panel will be off. This will also ensure that the battery life of the device doesn’t take a hit when notifications arrive.
It’s good to see that Samsung has some neat plans for displaying notifications on the uniquely shaped ‘Edge’ smartphones.
