Samsung Galaxy S23 users are dealing with a frustrating issue: their touchscreens are acting up after installing the latest One UI 6.1 update. What’s causing the problem? According to Samsung, it’s a bug in the Google Discover Feed app.
After updating to the latest One UI 6.1, Samsung Galaxy S23 users have encountered a problem where their touchscreens become unresponsive. This means that basic functions on their devices, such as tapping to open apps or navigate menus, are not working as expected. This issue has caused frustration among users, as it significantly disrupts their experience with their smartphones.
But there’s good news! Samsung is working closely with Google to fix the bug once and for all. In the meantime, users can try clearing the Google app data in their settings as a temporary solution.
What to do now?
To clear the data for the Google app, follow these steps: Go to Settings > Apps > Google > Storage, then tap Clear data. After doing this, you may need to log back into your Google account.
The issue is expected to be resolved by Google through an update to the Google app. To ensure you receive the update promptly, make sure automatic updates are enabled in the Play Store. If you prefer not to wait, you can manually update all your apps by accessing the Play Store, tapping your profile icon, selecting Manage apps and device, and then tapping Update all.
For Galaxy S23 users, it’s a minor setback that we hope will be resolved soon. Fingers crossed for a quick fix to restore the smooth touchscreen experience we all love.
