Offset screen

[OldLady55]

New Galaxy S26+ works fine, except on many apps, bottom of screen is cut off. Important buttons to interact with apps are often at very bottom of screen, and in many cases are only half visible and hard to click on. Especially annoying since the buttons are also on top of the Galaxy "close app" button.

Are you using navigation buttons or gestures?

Since Google started enforcing edge-to-edge in third party apps, navigation buttons often overlap UI elements and don't work properly. Switching to navigation gestures is the easiest way to resolve overlap issues.

If you don't want to switch to navigation gestures, you can use Samsung's NavStar app to add a show/hide button as a temporary workaround for when this occurs. https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.systemui.navillera

Ultimately, if you are going to continue using nav buttons, you will need to contact the app's developer and request that they update their app to support edge-to-edge. You can find the contact info for devs in each app's Play store listing.
