This is only an issue on the main home page. If you have multiple home screens, the Samsung pay at the bottom goes away.
Since your swipe up on the home page would take you to the same home page you are already on, why does it matter if the Samaung pay swipe tab is there? Makes sense why they left it from that perspective.
I get that most of us are used to the hidden nav bar and probably naturally swipe somewhere in the middle, but it really is a matter of retraining your movements on the screen.
Realistically, just shut off the Samsung pay on the home screen and leave it on the lock screen and when off. How many times are you really using your phone at the same time you are paying. Just swipe up from the lock screen or when it is off.
I do agree it would be nice for the finger print sensor swipe to work with the home screen button off.
If I am to the left or right of my home page either for apps or widgets, the Samsung Pay tab remains. Therefore if I swipe up it takes me to Samsung pay instead of my main home page. Same thing if I'm in my App drawer. So there's that.
And there are times when I have my phone in use and want to go to Samsung Pay, so all and all, it seems silly to not have an option to be able to eliminate the SP tab at the bottom and still use the finger print swipe to bring SP up. It would solve both of my problems.
