Receiving message: isn't optimized for the latest version of Android. Screen touches may be delayed or not recognized

Good day My wife's z flip 4 is experiencing issues after the Android 14 update yesterday. "isn't optimized for the latest version of Android. Screen touches may be delayed or not recognized" That message pops up from time to time on her phone and then the phone freezes perhaps an update will fix it?

Sometimes when I turn on and unlock my phone, I notice I can't swipe at all. To fix either I'll turn my screen off and on or rotate my screen to landscape then portrait if I happened to have auto rotate on. Sometimes doing that second method results in me getting a message that says

One UI home isn't optimized for the latest version of android. Screen touches may be delayed or not recognized.

 with a white pill at the bottom of my screen and an x on it I think, should've screenshotted it.

But anyway, I have a sneaking suspicion this is caused by either one of these or a combination of them. Either it's because I personally set my DPI to 612, I use Nova home launcher, or it's this macro that I made with macrodroid that auto changes my wallpaper at midnight. Istill think it's a Samsung problem because the UI freeze seems to always happen after my wallpaper changes, but even still it'll happen randomly, and I've even seen a reddit thread from 3 months ago mentioning that exact message.

Hoping anyone that has experienced this responds.

I cannot reboot/power off my Galaxy S23 FE because, when I tried to reboot/power off, it asks me to enter my password but my touch is not recognized and it shows "System UI isn't optimized for the latest version of Android" message. How can I reboot/power off in this situation? Please help.

I have S22 ultra.

If you have the S pen, try removing that to see if it kicks something into gear so touch is restored.

I'm using Note 20 OneUI 5. Any update for this issue?

S21 Ultra 5G just started doing this after latest update. Phone is virtually unusable, like aliens are playing with the screen remotely typing and sending random characters! Suggested fixes do nothing.

I'm having the same problem with my flip five. It does crazy things too.Like if I send an instant message, it'll send out like twenty thumbs ups.Icons.

My Samsung s24 ultra is saying system UI isn't optimized for the latest version of the android. Screen touch may be delayed or not recognized. I try to restart or power off but I can't type in my password or use fingerprint to allow my Samsung to restart. My screen is frozen too. There is a cancel button at the bottom with a X beside it but I can cancel it and when I touch my screen the text pop up with the beginning line of this message.  

Edit: If you use fingerprint to get in or other method without typing in your password, (I don't know how to explain it) at a period when the screen is half turn on in the lock screen, you can use fingerprint to get in your phone and restart or power off your Samsung that way. This bypass the need for entering your password to restart or power off your Samsung.

My son is getting this message on his phone and I'm not even able to get it keyboard to type anything, and the entire phone is locked up now and not working.

turn off Chat Heads in Facebook Messenger then restart the phone.

My husband's s24 won't let him unlock/ power off/ restart. Can't type password to get in to try and do an update or anything at all.
