S-view wallet phone case stopped working after update

Help! After the last update, my s-view phone case stopped working.  When I close the cover, it will not turn off the screen. And will not wake when I open the cover. 

I have tried restarting my phone multiple times. I have tried taking the phone out and putting it back in the case.  I have tried clearing the cache. I have tried resetting all settings. When I search the setting for cover case, no settings come up anymore. 

Does anyone have any other suggestions??

Hi! Welcome to the Samsung Members community!

I believe this could be the proximity sensor. Go to Samsung Members > Support > Diagnostics. Do all tests show up OK?

How odd it doesn't turn up in settings. I'll do some tinkering to have a look myself.

You could also try Smart Tutor and get device support directly.

I can't find where the diagnostics test is. Would it be in my phone settings?

I was on the website. I just downloaded the member app and ran the test. It showed that the proximity sensor is working.  But the case still doesn't  work.

I guess S23 and S24 series have similar or same S-view wallet case. Do you see this menu in Settings

How odd. Unless this feature has been missed? However, I can't say for sure. I would then definitely recommend Smart Tutor.

This is what my settings look like. Before this past update, it has the cover screen option,  but now it is gone.
