Lefties and Android, I love you either? Configure Android for Left-Handers
In a world dominated mainly by right-handers (over 80%), left-handers have no other solution than to adapt. A lot of people ignore it, but Android phones have different features that allow them to modify the interface and adapt it to left-handers..
Lefties and Android, I love you either?
Being left-handed is not limited to writing with your left hand. All everyday objects (scissors, knives, can openers) were designed and designed for right-handers. Left-handers live in hell every day. And it's exactly the same for smartphones. Some icons placed on the interface are very difficult to reach when holding the mobile with the left hand . 
The most used features on Android are generally placed on the right side of the screen in order to be easily accessible by the right thumb. As a result, users who use their left hand to hold their phone are penalized. Access to the functions located at the right end of the screen poses enormous difficulties for left-handers. Fortunately there is a little trick to remedy this problem.
Configure Android for Left-Handers
No need to search the Android settings for a special mode for lefties. You won't find anything. To modify the interface of your Android mobile and adapt it to your liking, you will need to put your hands (left and right) in the grease. Everything happens via the hidden mode of your mobile. Do not panic, we explain everything to you. Here is the procedure to adapt Android to left-handers ..
