OnePlus debuted the shelf many years ago, it was seen as a way to bring all of your information onto one screen. It’ll show things like the weather, your steps for the day, popular apps, how much storage you’ve used and so much more. It’s actually pretty useful.

But new with the OnePlus 10 Pro and OxygenOS 12, OnePlus has had to move that from the left page of the home screen. And instead of adding in the option to choose between Google Discover and Shelf, OnePlus decided to move it to the right side of the notifications shade. So when you swipe down from the right side, the Shelf is what comes down and not your notifications.

This is pretty cool because it means you can access the Shelf from anywhere in the OS. However, it also means that if you’re using your phone with one hand, you probably won’t be able to pull down the notification shade to access notifications and quick settings. Luckily, OnePlus does allow you to turn it off. And that’s what we’ll be showing you how to do today. Here’s how you can turn off the Launch Shelf from top right corner feature on the OnePlus 10 Pro.

Now, find “OnePlus Shelf” which should be the second option, and tap on that.

It’s important to note that this does also effectively turn off the OnePlus Shelf. Since it is no longer to the left of the homescreen, that’s where Google’s Discover page now lives. So if you do find yourself using the OnePlus Shelf often, you may want to turn this back on.
