I updates my s24 ultra and i absolutely hate that the search bar for the apps is on the bottom. I never use it. I always click on the apps. I can't seem to have an option on this phone to change the location of this bar back to the top. I don't like it since i don't have long f8ngers and now im struggling to put my thumb to the top to get to the upper apps. And i also am having problems with the notifications with this update. Whenever i swipe from up to down, i don't get to see my norifications,i always get to the settings menu, which is annoying me. How do you change the search bar to put it back on top? Did anyone figure this out or is struggling like me?😭

I really don't like the search bar being at the bottom. It has always been at the top of the screen as long as I can remember. The new UI 7 update has also made the phone much slower than it was before whilst adding nothing except AI which I dont use.

Why not at least make it an option for the user to choose where the search bar is.

Hopefully if enough people complain they will give us the power to decide where the search bar is.

it's stupid and I don't like it.

if Ive know it would not be possible to move the search bar back on top, would have continued with UI6

that's why we have Samsung phones because of the customization

So, how do we contact Google to ask them? Does anyone know a number or email we can reach out to?
A Google version of this forum perhaps?
Is that something we can do? I don't want to give up on this so easily. The way it is now, there is this weird color gradient from left to right that makes my eyes go crossed trying to focus on it.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Absolutely terrible update. This one probably bugs me the most

Such an annoying sh..t. Why can't it be hidden and and or configured to the top. It totally breaks the reachable of apps by moving apps up. Same making if things worse as the permanent visible white line navigation bar at bottom (when gestures are enabled, I don't use navigation bar buttons) 😠

I regret having updated my phone, useless updates that only make using the phone more bothersome
