Pumpkin, 26 Jul 2017Hi,
I had my Samsung 6 software updated last night...and ... moreYou said it all, along with everyone else!
Way too many steps now, especially to make a Phone Call or look at Contacts!
Plus, the frustrating problems now with Text Messaging that we didn't have prior to these latest updates.
And the Changes in all the Icons, making them so faint!
But do you really think Android and/or Samsung is gunna listen to any of us? Nope!
They Didn't Listen when the Nougat Update first messed up all of our phones, and it's obvious they didn't listen with this newest update to supposedly fix their Original Nougat Update!
With every update, they Continue to Mess Up our phones even more!!
Thank goodness I'm due for a Phone Upgrade, bcuz like my kids and the rest of my family, I'm definitely SWITCHING to iPhone!!!
GOODBYE SAMSUNG and FAREWELL TO ANDROID 4EVER!!
I'm just sorry it took me this long to finally cut the umbilical cord that kept us joined... Ughhh, such a Disappointment 😠☹️

To Samsung- What the hell??!!! Everything was fine before this upgrade on my s6 now my connectivity is crap, and what is going on with predictive text??!!! Why do you have to try and make it so clever? You've failed! I have apps that are affected now and I can't even read history on my emails. Really fed up and think this has convinced me to move back to iPhone. I can't even get a complaint through your website because the form is so badly put together and chat just chucked me out immediately on being put through! Sort it out I've had enough!

If we are not given an option to revert back to previous software or they don't sort this cheap, childish amature looking update out!!

I never like having to update as they always seem to ruin a good thing. Why change the look of the icons as it's not needed, wanted or necessary. This is by farvthe worst update to date I have experienced. Like many others I am have bizarre word changes when I am typing any message. It seems to have forgotten the words I usually use and has replaced them with words that have no connection to what I want to say. Messages and calls have more action then previously. I am due an upgrade and am for the first time ever am considering the dreaded IPhone. Please sort this out Samsung. Pretty Please!!!

Hi,
I had my Samsung 6 software updated last night...and ITS SUCH A DISSAPPOINTMENT I really eant to revert back to the older version please! Everything is so messy I dont think its an advanced or improved step at all compared to the previous easy to use screen layout & flows. In terms of Look & Feel, its such a disaster - all the apps icon is so small & faint and one has to look through it all to locate it! Theres unnecessary additional steps added that just adds to the complexity and confusion eg when dialling out you should just do 2 steps and be done with...here, you are having to press extra buttons. Imagine if youre not mobile literate or english isnt your language...theres too many buttons/steps to wade through to perform a task. And the aesthetics is aweful, please improve!
Thanks!

Update is appalling! Whoever's responsible for it should be made to sit and use it for 8hrs a day until they realise how bad it really is. Not happy at all

Horray I thought I was going mad but now I see not just me but others having same issues, emails opening but no text, I have to keep closing and opening until it finally appears, when texting often changes to stupid predictatext words like going comes up with cooking !! Dont like it, why on earth do these updates without testing on some general public groups first, this is crazy ....wish I could go back to previous :(
