Hello everyone,

I am in a truble situation. My S23 after unlocking display often opens apps. It is very annoying. I use swipe to unlock display. System opens apps which are added on home screen. Tried unlocking by PIN, pass, others way, but problem appears again.
Android is 14 updated and all apps updated,.

Please give me advice how to resolve the problem.

Welcome to AC!
Are you using always on display or just lock screen? Also you have app shortcuts or widgets on the lock screen enabled?

Any guestures also saved? - I did this - TalkBack settings -> Customise gestures - > I set up all on Home option.

If I did wrong action, please give me suggestions.

Thanks!

Hi , not sure which are you using , Always on display or just lock screen? Do you know the difference between the two?

In my screenshot you can edit the Lock screen app shortcuts by tapping edit and same next to it for widget

You go to settings>lock screen

Yes, Now I understood. I switch off all shortcuts on lock screen.

I recently just got the OneUI 6 update on my S22 Ultra and this is happening to me now too. It wasn't happening prior to the update. Now sometimes when I unlock my phone with fingerprint, it sometimes opens the app which is on my home screen surrounding the finger print sensor.

Super Annoying!!

do you have face unlock enabled? Inotice mine sometimes unlocks via face just as I am about to hit the fingerprint sensor, and then I end up hiting an app icon and opening that instead of unlocking(because it unlocked using my face).
I would disable face unlock and see if that helps...
