Gestures still broken. Leads to "touch problem" or "animation stutter"

Full screen gestures are still broken even in beta 2.

When you swipe very very fast and swiftly from the edge of the screen towards the middle, user can notice that system is firstly buffering the central swipe (wich correspond to specific app functions) and only subsequently the "back" action. This despite the "back" arrow animation shown in time wich demonstrates that movement registration is OK but buffering hierarchy is not. 

This problem has been referred as "touch problem" or "animation stutter" in many threads over reddit and forums. The reason is that for a very brief moment system reacts to the wrong action input.

But in reality it is a non perfect hierarchy of gesture interpretation.

You can reproduce the bug mechanically swiping very very fast from edge to center in whatsapp (where it will trigger VERY BRIEFLY the camera or status pages from left or right respectively) or in Gmail (where it will trigger very briefly set action for single emails).

This is a unique bug that only Samsung have since Android 11

Setting a new home launcher doesn't resolve the issue (maybe because part of one Ui launcher still remains in memory to manage multitasking and gestures).

Using One hand operation plus (setting only back action to all the swipes) fixes the problem. 

Please escalate this report to the engineer in charge.

Thank you for your consideration

I have an A54 and i have the exact same issue.

Edit: I believe this related to Exynos only. I have tested the A34 (Dimensity) and it works flawlessly.

Edit 2: I've updated to Android 14 and the issue is persist. Nothing is changed.
