One of the innovations that OnePlus introduced on the 6T is the ability to use the in-screen fingerprint reader for quickly launching apps merely by sliding your finger and selecting from a pop-up menu. For details on how to set this useful feature up and a short video demonstration over on Mr.Phone, click on the link...

However, whilst Quick Launch is available to the global, OnePlus 6T users, T-Mobile (USA), for reasons known only to themselves, have chosen not to include this on their carrier branded, minority variant.

Not all is lost though, as T-Mobile users can pay off and unlock their phones and flash the global firmware to them. For the details on this, see the link. below.

This is, of course, only for experienced and competent users and will void your T-Mobile warranty as well as preventing OTA, (Over The Air), updates in future. Proceed at your own risk.
