Galaxy S22Somewhere around the time of this most recent update, my S22 Ultra has started vigorously taking screenshots whenever it feels the need. If I set the phone down, pick it up, double tap to turn off/on the screen, close an app, etc... I notice it happening probably 10 times a day, but my gallery shows many more.
I plan on doing a full reset soon, posting here is kinda a last resort.
Is there any logging available so I can see where the screenshot call is coming from?
Before someone suggests it, I am running enterprise level AV/malware protection, and have been doing so since I got this phone about 6 months ago.
Extra sensitivity is not enabled. The only screenshot action which is turned on is the standard volume down + power, which I can guarantee I am not accidentally hitting 10+ times a day.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John

I'd recommend turning off palm swipe to capture. Go to
Settings > Advanced features > motions and gestures > palm swipe to capture (pictures attached)
Maybe the edge of your screen is getting wiped and that could be taking screenshots
Hope this helps 🙂

I appreciate the suggestion, however I failed to mention that setting is already disabled.

I do, and forgot about the double tap setting. If that is the cause of these issues, then samsung really failed on the implementation of that setting. It's off now, I have a bad feeling that just fixed it, time will tell.

I hope it does. Their implementation is really sensitive, they should probably as some conditions for it and a sensitivity slider.
