Samsung Notes App not responding well to long quick strokes

EDIT:

I found a workaround.

Use other Pen tools available such as Fountain Pen, Calligraphy Pen, Pencil and Brush.

Pen, for some reason, has problems with very quick strokes.

--- END EDIT

Performing long quick strokes on Samsung Notes results to drawing incomplete strokes. Only about 10% of the stroke is rendered. This is noticeable when writing small letters fast.

Only in Samsung Notes has this issue. In other notetaking apps, such as Onenote, Wacom Notes, Bamboo Paper, and drawing apps suvh as ibisPaintX, Sketchbook and Krita, the strokes are fully rendered with no lags.

Samsung Always-On Notes does not have this issue as well. It can respond to quick strokes.

Samsung Notes 4.4.23.25

Device: SM-P619 (S6 Tab Lite 2022)

One UI version 6.1

Android version 14

I wish I could turn off smoothing in Samsung Notes.

Hi, goobah! That’s frustrating, especially since it works fine in other apps. Try updating Samsung Notes, or clearing its cache. If not, consider reinstalling it or using Samsung Members to check for any issues. Hope this helps!

Hi. The Samsung Notes is in the latest version.

For reinstalling, do I disable it then enable it? I dont see the option to uninstall Samsung Notes.

I also cannot disable Samsung Notes. Only option is to Force Stop. I did that, and then I opened the app. The issue is still there.
