The latest update patched out the last vestige of its usefulness. The recent games page that you could previously use maximized so you didn’t see all the pointless crap is now gone.

Good job Samsung. You finally got me to disable it.

    Yeah, I moved to Googles game center. Unfortunate but what did they think would happen making my game center into a Xioami ad hell.

    Right after I consumed the 50 hrs instant access, the suffering began. Every day, you have to wait for 2-3 hrs just to line up in the queue.

    I never understood what exactly is the point of a gaming hub when you can just launch your games from the app drawer or search bar? It just seems like it adds an extra step for nothing.

    I sent them feedback when that instant games update dropped and they basically said “thanks but no” to removing/ minimising the instant shit page.

    Damn, you guys always complain about everything. This sub is so miserable, I swear the vast majority of things posted here are complaints about the dumbest shit. Like serioulsy? You’re going to stop using the game launcher because a screen isn’t full screen anymore? This sub is full of constant complaints, you guys are absolutely miserable

      Adding and removing games from the launcher have been there for a long time, it’s not new.

      Imagine whining and complaining for no good reason about others complaining for a very good reason 🤡

      Also, it seems like what they’re ACTUALLY complaining about went completely over your head, unsurprisingly 🤦

    Good game launcher was a big pro for me, and one of reasons i like(d) OneUI.

    It tracked your time, you could compare with other players etc. But the main reason was to have YOUR game on a heap.

    Then instant games came as a 2nd tab, then as default one, but still you could at least see your games in bigger window than a small strip at the bottom of the screen.

    Someone was laughing that app is free and we can’t vote with our wallets. That’s simply not true, as we can go and buy any other phone than Samsung. I’m really tired I need to skip ads every time I open Galaxy Store. Simply unbelievable from Samsung.
