Samsung started the release of the much-anticipated One UI 6.1 update last week. The upgrade is limited to a few phones, with others expected to start getting it soon, but with all these issues after the upgrade, the company might delay the rollout.
We reported the slow charging that started after the One UI 6.1 upgrade, and now, Galaxy S23 users are reporting touchscreen issues. The display only registers touch after tapping on the display multiple times.
While there is no official date for a fix, Samsung has acknowledged the problem. According to the company, the issue is caused by Google’s app Discover feature. We understand Google is already working on a fix, but you can temporarily address it.
How to fix Galaxy S23 touchscreen issues after One UI 6.1 update
The reason we recommend a backup before installing a major upgrade is due to bugs, which might require a factory reset to address. Also, we have seen devices stuck on Bootloop after an upgrade. If you are having an issue with your Galaxy S23 touchscreen, you can back up your device and reset it.
Meanwhile, Samsung has provided a fix while the issue is being resolved. You should update the Google app to the latest version, after which you clear the app’s data and restart your device. That should fix the issue for you, according to Samsung.
