I just updated my S21 FE 5G to Android 13 [One UI 5] and the Pin windows feature is mot working/showing anymore. Before, I just go to Recent > tap and hold app icon > Pin window.

Now if I tap and hold the app icon, it just starts the split screen flow and no other option comes up. The Pin windows feature is still available in my phone settings showing the steps how to use it but it's not working.

Are you enabling "Pin Windows" from here?

Yup. It's enabled, and it was working before the update. Screenshot_20221215_170302_Settings.jpg

Pinned App works for me on my S20 Ultra One UI V5.0.

What options do you see in the drop-down after tap and holding the app icon in Recent page? I don't get any drop-down menu, it just drags the icon as if I'm doing a split screen.

Just Tap, don't press & hold.
