I just discovered this bug now, and it's annoying me a little bit.

When I go into settings and disable hard press, it still stays on like it was still enabled.

I can still change the pressure required to hard press, but the only problem is that it won't disable.

It reads off, but it still stays on, so it has to be some software bug.

Restarting my phone doesn't work, and I don't know how to fix it.

I only noticed it now, so I can only assume it is from the Pie update.

Please comment if this is happening to your s8/s9 so I can know if this is just my phone.

Hey if it is a software bug, do this:

1- Change the setting to ENABLE
2- Hard Press Home.
3- Change the setting to DISABLE
4- Hard Press Home
5- Open Samsung Members and go to Get Help
6- Select Send Comment
7- Add an error report.

This will help devs to identify the problem and fix it

The hard press is on regardless whether it is enabled or disabled. Their suggestion was to reset my phone but I'm getting the same issues after the reset. After doing a bit of digging online, there were some reports of the same issue but from when the Pie update first came out, so it's probably a widespread issue that Samsung is probably just going to ignore
