Google discover not working

3Cubed — Wed, 11 Dec 2024 09:10:30 GMT

Google discover (slide til venstre fra home skærmen) er holdt op med at virke bare sådan lige ud af det blå. Er der nogen der har en ide om hvad det kan skyldes og hvordan man får det i gang igen?

Jeg har prøvet at slå det fra og til, at skifte til Samsungs news stream, som virker men er dårlig, jeg har også prøvet at slå det fra og til i google indstillinger og jeg har selvfølgelig prøvet at genstarte telefonen. Intet har hjulpet.

Nogen der har ideer til hvordan det her løses. Det kan være noget jeg har fået slået til eller fra i lommen, men jeg kan ikke finde ud af hvad det kan være?

Telefonen er en S23Ultra 256GB på seneste software, alle apps er opdateret.

Mvh. Kasper

Translation: Google discover (slide left from home screen) has stopped working out of the blue. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this and how to get it working again?

I've tried turning it off and on, switching to Samsung's news stream, which works but is bad, I've also tried turning it off and on in Google settings and of course I've tried restarting the phone. Nothing has helped.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? It could be something I've turned on or off in my pocket, but I can't figure out what it could be?

The phone is an S23Ultra 256GB on the latest software, all apps are updated.

Yours sincerely, Casper

Hvad mener du med "Google Discover er holdt op med at virke"?

Hvis du mener, at du ikke kan få adgang til det, fordi det ikke vises, så som @Anonymous User nævnt, tryk længe på startskærmen, fortsæt med at glide til venstre, indtil du får mulighederne for at slå den fra eller til.

Hvis du med "Google Discover er holdt op med at virke" mener, at den er af men ikke funktionel, så beror problemet på en app kaldet "Google"

Først - i "google"-appen, gå til indstillinger > andre indstillinger > Opdag: slå det til

Sekund - hvis problemet fortsætter, skal du nulstille appen "google", gå til indstillinger> apps> google> lager> ryd cache og data

Tredje - Genstart din telefon og se, om det hjælper.

Translation: What do you mean by "Google Discover has stopped working"?

If you think you can't access it because it's not showing, then as @Galaxy2024 mentioned, long press on the home screen, keep swiping left until you get the options to turn it off or on.

If by "Google Discover has stopped working" you mean that it is up but not functional, then the problem is with an app called "Google"

First - in the "google" app, go to settings > other settings > Discover: turn it on

Second - if the problem persists, reset the "google" app, go to settings > apps > google > storage > clear cache and data

Third - Restart your phone and see if that helps.

Same thing here. It was stopped working 2 days ago. Cleaned both cache and data on Google app. Also wiped data cache and tried on safe mode. Nothing worked.

I am facing this issue too. Google app is working well, but swiping in not bringing it to the screen. Google Discover is enabled. Turning it off and on, clearing app data and memory does not help.

Ok I managed to resolve this problem. Just reinstall your default search engine. Last update asked to pick one. I've selected EDGE. Now reinstalled EDGE app and discover is appearing when I swipe right.

Jeg mener at jeg slet ikke kan slide til venstre når googel discover er aktiveret. Når jeg vælger free kan jeg godt slide til venstre. Jeg har prøvet alle de step i nævner, den er aktiveret fra home skærmen med langt hold og discover er valgt når man slider til venstre. Discover er aktiveret i google app indstillingerne og jeg har slettet cache og data I google appen i telefonens indstillinger og jeg har haft telefonen slukket og tændt også efter jeg har slettet data og cashe.

Alt til ingen forskel, jeg kan stadig ikke slide til venstre og ende på discover skærmen.

Jeg kan godt tilgå discover fra google appen, hvilket er en trøst, men bare ikke lige så smart.

I have exactly the same problem on s23U & a54

I have an S23 and S8 Tab both stopped working same day 10th of december. Slide right action that is. Google app show discover feed as normal. but you can't swipe right from home screen no more. I have cleared cache on goole app, uninstall updates, I wiped cache partition, tried samsung oneUI laucher. Samsung feed working ok, google discover not. tried Nova laucher with google companion no luck neither. I have come to the conclusion it can't be something with the device itself. Either it is tied to my google account or it is service wide error. As they are many more of you experiancing the same erorr these days. it must be on to Goggle to fix it. If anyone finds a way please do share

There is a solution - at least for me, problem is not reproducing anymore. I am not sure what exactly helped me to resolve this issue. For sure that was not related with enabling/disablng discovery, clearing memory and cache of google application or restarting the phone as I've made all of it earlier but no changes. Google application itself was working for me, I've been able to enable discover from applications, only swipe right was not bringing it to the screen.

I have reinstalled edge that I am using as my default browser. I have also change the default browser setting for a moment to chrome, then switched it back to edge. Right after that swipe right started to working again, so it must be somehow related with these steps, either change of the default browser setting or reinstalling of the default browser.

So try it out, go to settings -> applications -> default applications and change default browser settings and/or reinstall your default browser.

hmm. didn't work for me. I have only default samsung internet. Not sure installing chrome will help resolve this. I added the google widget on my homescreen pressing the "G" takes me directly to googe app and my discover news. I guess it goes quicker than swiping :). I'm giving it a rest for now. Not sure it is worth the time and effort. We are left to our creativity resolving this. Happy for you though enjoy!

Hello. I have solved the issue. S25 new, installed with smart switch.

problem: google discover missing on home screen right and in google chrome home tab

solution tried: reset cache screen. power off then hold down volume up and power button while connected with usb to computer. that didn't work

solution: change default browser from Chrome to Firefox and then back to Chrome. This fixed Google Discover on the home screen right.

2nd solution: clear cache and data in Chrome this fixed Google Discover on the chrome homepage.
