Galaxy S6 edge specific tasks

I'd like to know if there is any way to get access to the Samsung Galaxy s6 edge's "edge" functions.

It has a few pretty neat built-in things, but the options are essentially just toggles. Specifically, I'd like to disable the sidebar in specific apps, and enable the edge night clock more naturally.

Secure settings only gives me access to the fingerprint lock as far as I can see.

Has anyone else found a solution for this?

I haven't found any. It makes me mad you can't choose apps to light of the edge when there is a notification, it has 4 that you can use from.

Yeah I totally agree. I use textra so... No notifications for me.

Same. Textra is really nice.

It's pretty funny how many of the settings just cause a crash once you get rid of all the bloat. Samsung really wants you to use their stuff.

Did you root to get rid of bloat or did you disable them?

Root. It saves 1.5 GB of storage...

I'm not going to root anytime soon. Just got my phone a couple days ago.

I haven't rooted; but I find Samsung was a lot more space efficient with the s6 edge compared to my last phone, the s3.

I think if you use this app you can find information. It can be found on the Google play store. I used to use it with my note 3. System Settings For Tasker.

Hmmm... This might actually get me somewhere. Do you know how to find the events that it associates to? I'm more of a Linux user, so I don't know exactly how android manages its settings.

Assuming it's a file some of this seems possible.
