    Some of the more the obscure ones have to do with the keyboard. You can just start typing on the homescreen to search Google. You can set long presses on any key to open different apps or shortcuts. You can also set short press shortcuts if you turn off the auto search feature in the settings.

    You can double tap the keyboard in a text field to bring up the cursor, then swipe in any direction to move it around. When you have the cursor up, you can hold shift and swipe in any direction to highlight words You can swipe back to delete a word. You can swipe up under any of the three word suggestions to enter it. You can swipe down to open an alternate symbol keyboard. You can swipe up and down on the keyboard to scroll through pretty much any app.

    When shift is enabled, there is an arrow outline in the status bar. You can lock shift by double tapping it or holding it, the arrow in the status bar will be solid. When alt is enabled, you'll also see it up there. Again, double tapping or holding it will lock alt, and it will have a line under it in the status bar.

    You can press the space bar in some apps to scroll down a page. In some apps, hitting t will take you the top of the page, and b will take you to the bottom.

    Holding the mic key when typing will bring up a little toolbar where you can open the smiles keyboard, paste your last copied text, or open the keyboard settings.

    When getting a call, you can open the keyboard to dismiss it and type a reply, or you can set it to just answer the call.

    There's an advanced interactions tab in the system settings where you can enable flip to mute, flip to save power, and hold to stay awake.

    You can set how the recent apps screen looks in the display settings. Apps with widgets have three dots under them in the stock launcher, swiping on them will pop up the widget.

    That's most of the stuff unique to the Priv.
