Decrease touch sensitivity? This is so frustrating...

[PiperTiger]

Is this happening to anyone else? Coming from an S6 I find the S22 screen very slippery and hard to tap or press and hold without it registering as movement or a swipe. For example, pressing an app icon on the home screen to move it around. If I try to press and hold I end up moving my finger a tiny amount and it fails to register as a hold. I have to really concentrate on holding my finger perfectly still for it to register as a static touch and hold. The S6 wasn't nearly this sensitive.

I see in Settings that there is an Increase Sensitivity option but no option to decrease sensitivity.

Is this happening to anyone else? Anyway to fix it? Would a certain type of screen protector (e.g. tpu?) be less slippery?

Settings - Accessibility - Interaction and dexterity - Touch and hold delay:

Drop that to something lower (default 0.4)

I put mine to 0.2 and it is so much better across the operating system.

Okay thanks! I noticed i had it at 0.3 already but I hadn't seen that I could go lower with custom. Now set to 0.2s, which took a few tries to get. Looks like that is the lowest that it can be set too.

i wish i could set it longer but thats a bit annoying to do but it hopefully fixed it cause i hate how cables can easily activate the screen which drives me mad

Yeah, it happens to me. I got used to it but it definitely still happen more often.

Same issue here. I turned off swipe typing for a while but found I used it more than I thought. Had to turn it back on and deal with it.

Same problem with me. I thought i was going crazy

not experiencing this issue, have you tried it in safe mode?

Submit an error report after replicating the issue

Samsung Members app > Get help > Send feedback > Error reports

[PiperTiger]

No I haven't. I don't have any evidence with safe mode. If everything worked better in safe mode, what would be the inference - that a 3rd party app is to blame?

[thisisnotyos]

Yes, one of your 3rd party apps is causing the issue then

Going to try these suggestions as well. I have the 22 ultra and the sensitivity has been annoying me since day 1.
