Hey everyone, 

I've been using my Note 10+ for two months now. 

I don't remember it being like this in the beginning but sometimes while I'm typing something - doesn't matter in which app; it can be whatsapp, twitter, instagram, and so on - the app suddenly closes and takes me to the main screen.

 

Like i wrote in the title, the app minimizes and it keeps running in the background.

It does not crash; i dont get any error messages. 

It's just annoying how im typing something and suddenly im in the main screen. 

 

In the beginning i thought i keep touching the "back" button while im typing but i made sure i wasnt doing that and the app still minimizes...

 

Is there anyone that has experienced something similar? 

If so, could you share any solution to this?

 

Thanks!

Now it's even more sensitive with the OneUi 2.5, it minimizes my screen with one hand operation when trying to swipe down the YouTube small view tab...

Dame thing here but the only thing that closes is the keyboard. When I'm typing the keyboard slides down and have to touch the text field again to show it back again. I'm using google keyboard this doesn't happen with samsung keyboard for some reason

This happens to me whenever I'm replying to a friend in the Bubble version of Facebook Messenger, whilst using the Swipe to type function. It would also happen when I type normally also. I should add that I use the gesture functions. It's pretty annoying tbh. Also, when you open a picture file on fb messenger, and try to back out, instead of exiting the photo and returning to the conversation, it minimises the chat. Not sure if it's a FB issue or update issue

This happens to me often and it's very frustrating to be concentrating on typing and seeing your screen minimize and/or switch apps... try removing the "hide keyboard button" first. Next u can try lowering the touch sensitivity zone of the navigation bar...... that's all I got. I'm hoping the next android [12] OS will fix this.
