Notification drop down ruined

Something changed with the update before last. Used to be whether it was a text message or anything I would just drag my thumb from the top down now when I do that it opens up a menu that I used to have to drag it down twice in order to access. I don't want to access that menu I want my notifications. So now I have to swipe to the left in a tiny margin at the top of the bottom which doesn't always work so now I'm missing constant missed calls messages because it's not where it used to be. An extra step was added and it certainly doesn't help while I'm driving since I actually have to look at my phone because if I just try to swipe in the middle of the screen it'll toggle one of the menu options that used to only be available when I wanted them to be because they are not used nearly as much as the notifications. I'm always amazed at how updates can ruin things. Too often are they fixing things that are not already broken.
