As Android Headlines reports, the complaints have been rolling onto social media sites and forums, like X and Reddit. Some claim navigation buttons on their Pixels have become totally unresponsive, while others experience delays around 30 seconds (if not longer) any time they try to hit a button. Still others have issues with navigation gestures—Android Police founder Artem Russakovskii highlights how swiping back, which should take the user back to the previous page or app, will just randomly do nothing.

Don't get me wrong: There was a time when we were primed to wait 30 seconds or more after asking our computers to perform a function. But those days have long passed. Modern smartphones especially are designed to be fast, fluid, and responsive. Even a short delay between an input and its corresponding action feels like a bad user experience, so painfully slow delays, not to mention a totally unresponsive UI, is unacceptable in 2025.
Troubleshooting navigation issues on Pixel
The original poster of this Reddit thread, for example, later commented to share that switching their Android launcher fixed the glitches. The OP moved back to the Pixel launcher from Nova, which surprised them, since they had been using Nova for the past decade without issue. One reply says they have a similar problem when using Nova.
All apps > Pixel Launcher, then choose "Force stop."
Could this be a general issue with launchers on Android 16? Possibly, but we won't know for sure until Google officially addresses the issue. The official PixelCommunity Reddit account did reach out to one OP about the problem, so hopefully the company pushes a patch out quickly.
