After updating to the new UI 6 / Android 14 the Recent app button, home button and back button don't work at certain time. The first time I noticed it was when I was in the "Media Output" screen. None of those buttons worked. Recent apps doesn't work from the Home Screen either.

Huge pain! This really needs an update fast. They don't work on the following screens:

- Home Screen

- App Drawer

- Media Output screen

Same thing happening here, that means they don't test the updates before releasing them. Do they even check this forums or is it just for us to communicate with each other?

Try booting to Safe Mode.

Just tried it in Safe Mode and it still does the same thing. Recent, Home, and Back don't work in certain screens. Thanks for the idea.

Same problem here. Recent apps works fine when in an app, but does not work on the homescreen. Using buttons, not gestures.

**POSSIBLE FIX**

I saw this on the European Samsung Forums and it worked for me. Been 24 hours and still working.

OP from Europe, "I just changed the location of the navigation bar to the left [side], closed it, and changed it back to the right side, and it is working fine now... Settings > Display > Navigation Bar"

Ty.  That seems to have done the trick for me.  Working fine now
