Add a setting to enable old overscroll animation used in Android 11 and below

[bringbackoldscroll]

In Android 12, the new elastic overscroll animation makes me feel nauseous and when scrolling fast, I need to wait for the animation to finish before I can tap anything. I don't want to disable all animations due to a single animation being an issue.

Please give the user an option to enable the old scroll animation (in accessibility, option would be called something like "disable stretch overscroll"). This would also tell apps like Twitter to disable their new overscroll animation when the old animation is active (basically, have scrolling function like Android 11). The old scroll animation is shown in the image. (The glow/bubble effect from it as well that you don't get by simply turning off animations in Android 12 right now).

Me and hubby participated in the beta program and the first couple of beta releases we saw the overscroll feature ... beta3 they took it away because of issues and pretty much everyone complained to bring it back. 😁

To bring back the old animation?

If Samsung got the old animation to work on Android 12, then they should give us an option between the two

[user149533at39]

... no, everyone wanted the new overscroll back ... they took it away to fix issues it had

[bringbackoldscroll]

So why don't they just give you an option between the two?

I asked for a toggle and got blasted by the new animation crowd. I personally think it looks childish.

[bringbackoldscroll]

Why did you get hate? It's an optional setting. It benefits both sides!

[TheRoops]

Turning off all animations is optional but not what I'm looking for.

I'm talking about a setting that would just have the device use the old scroll animation
