How can you redesign the most core feature of the phone and make it slower? Absolutely blows my mind that this is possible. 

Before I had 3 swipe gestures and especially If you Switch a lot between apps The up swipe for app switching was fast and efficient, now it slower because you need to hold it.... How... Just how.... Can this be designed and implemented?!? And even if this was implemented how can you not give users the option to revert back to that way?!? 

 

And don't give me the apkure workaround because it doesn't work for everyone, Besides that it's ridiculous that we need to go these lengths to get a decent working core function back.

 

Fix this ***** asap Samsung!

NavStar, ver. 6.1.05.xx, works and with it, it is as fast as it was

You need to complain to Google about the swipe gestures as they are the ones that do the core Android software. It's the same as what the Google Pixel phones have now to accommodate the new AI features

Do you mean the speed of the animations are the main issue now? If so, you can always speed these up via Developer Options (tap on the build number of your phone 7 times, in About Phone, to enable this extra setting).

Then you can scroll down to Animation Duration Scale and set this to 0.5 and that's it.

I must admit, as much I like the 6.1 update and the animations are smooth, I prefer mine to be faster and I have set mine to 0.5.

Animations are one thing, but the motion of swiping once to switch apps can't be sped up because of the hold required now. Also, swiping on either side to 'go back' sometimes happens while using normal app functions.

An option to keep the traditional bottom screen gestures is what we want. I just switched to gestures a few weeks ago and love them, but now...rip

I'm infuriated by this too. It's like they didn't even bother testing it. Swiping up from the bottom was so quick and intuitive. They could at least give us options to change it back. Cmon Samsung! WTF

Yep, I've been using gestures for years and now for some reason they decided to ruin them and make them difficult and slow to use. They need to fire whoever made this decision.
