Android O feature spotlight: The notification shade fingerprint swipe gesture now matches device orientation
(Android Police)

Since the Pixel was released last year it`s been possible to swipe down on the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor to pull down the notification shade. Those who use the feature may have noticed that while holding your phone in landscape you would need to swipe horizontally to bring down the notifications, which seemed counterintuitive. The release of the second developer preview for Android O (DP2) changes this, and you can now logically swipe down from whichever side of the device is currently the top, depending on how you`re holding it.
