After this U.I update things changed a bit. Under Game Booster settings for games. I am unable to find the Floating Shortcut option. It was convenient to take game screenshots. Now its gone. Extra steps is needed to take screenshot while gaming. Was able to screenshot this on my S10. Come on Samsung don't fix what was not broken.

I don't have to swipe up first to bring it back up. For me it has always been a thumb swipe from where the bar hides to when not in use.

Yeah, when playing Azur Lane or blue archive. Any swipe will register as a touch triggering next screen. Hence the floating shortcut's usefulness.

It's not about thumbs reach. Thanks for trying but you do not understand our frustrations or ux

It's different for gamers using the game booster on landscape games. I'm playing jujutsu kaisen.. some storylines and visuals that are telling me to "You need to take screenshot NOW!" and.. this happens..slowly slide up the menu (retry if not successful) n click the booster n press the ss, gosh, story is over.

I've configured double click on power button as screenshot for now and long press to change back to power menu instead of speaking to AI.. they just wanted to steal our data.

Thank you for the support. When Using the screenshot function via game booster, it also organizes the files by game and date year-month-day hr min sec format. That floating icon comes in handy. Trying a work around via quickly swiping up on my Azur Lane and Blue Archive screenshot situations, I manage some good shots but it registers sometimes and advances the screen. Its already 2nd fix it request with photo to Samsung. Typical response "oh okay we understand and will try to get it back".

Did you download all resources? If you don't it actually eats more data.1747987007416.jpg

Hey, I found a workaround for it. Sharing it here:

Go to Settings > Accessibility > Interaction and dexterity > Assistant menu > On > Select Assistant menu items

Here, remove everything except screenshot button, now you'll get a similar screenshot button like the one we had before.

You'll have to toggle it on and off manually though.

To make it like before:

Create a routine:

If: Game is being played

Then: accessibility > assistant menu > turn ON

When routine ends: Return to status before routine ran

 

This will function similarly to the button we had previously. Hope this works out for you ๐Ÿ™‚

Thank you this will definitely do the trick for now. Only thing I liked about the other screenshot button is it put screenshots in individual folders per game. They reeeeeally need to give us the option to rollback to the version before this **bleep**.
