Samsung S23 Ultra updated today and I am seriously irritated with this update. First thing I noticed my navigation bar, I had the option of swipe or buttons. I have always used swipe for navigation and my recent apps were on the right and my back to the left with home being center. You used to be able to choose left or right for either. Now it is incredibly difficult to get to my recently used apps. Everytime I used the navigation bar it sends me to the home screen. If I wanted to go to the home screen I'd swipe in the middle. Everywhere does it now. Can't go back a page or to recent apps it all sends me home. There's an annoying period where you have to hold to get recent apps to show up. This is stupid and inefficient. Secondly it keeps opening apps up when I'm trying to scroll through my pages of apps that I'm not selecting just trying to turn the page and it's not responding correctly just opening apps. Very disappointed so far and will continue to notice things I hate about this update throughout the day. Wish they would revert the update.

I'm straight p****d. The swipe navigation was the only way to go. I dont want to have to hold the screen to move around. And the buttons take up screen space. And the glitchesness of this BS opening up apps when it want instead of when I want is getting irritating. If I wanted a peace of ***** IPhone I'd of bought an iPhone. They didn't need to turn my Samsung into one

If you wernt using swipe navigation it would be the same. They left gesture navigation and button navigation and removed swipe.

Yea sorry but that's still not what we're looking for. What ever app you downloaded didn't even change anything. All those options are what 6.1 has already. Plus most people with any sense don't use those 3rd party overlay apps. That's just asking to get bricked out of your phone

Also you are I correct on Goodlock being a samsung app. It's made by good lock labs. Still 3rd party

I contacted support as well and was told to do a soft reset, then hard reset and if still not working, to send it for repairs to their "engineers"! I just find it hard to believe that Samsung can make what really a great phone, and decide to take the ***** like this. If I wanted iPhone functionality, I'd buy an iPhone (which I'm greatly considering for my next phone after this stunt!). I get they want to push the AI sh*t, and it would make sense to force this in a new phone - but don't "brick" my phone!! And no, don't want to install dodgy 3rd party apps just to regain what's essential functionality.

Yeah, totally agree with your comment. Is there no research at all before Samsung update this behaviour? it is so fcking annoying bruuh and i don't really like it + consider to move to Apple.

But even with goodlock, I cant fet rid of the bottom line. I can make it smaller though but nothing like it was before with invisible swipe gestures.
