For years, Pixel users have been battling a frustrating foe: sudden, unstable loops. Use our algorithm to convert text into simple language in just 3 clicks. It’s coming back! Once again, this evil guest made another strange appearance on the latest Google Pixel 8, but yet according to them, this dangerous ending will come with Android 15!
Criminal? Gremlin sprites are responsible for slowing down the system’s display when scrolling through the user interface and making the display appear as if it is not as refreshed as expected. Google’s issue tracker hosted a large number of Pixel8 and 8 Pro owners and the number of our readers experiencing this in some apps was over fifty percent.
Never dare to fear because Google has already vanquished the beast! A note on the issue tracker with an ETA for an upcoming Android release, probably Android 15, hints that it’s working on a fix. This update is planned to provide better overall system performance and power optimization for this problem, specifically addressing the UI junk syndrome that is a familiar gameplay frustration of jitters.
However, patience is required. The final Android 15 release is still reaching its S-curve stages as only the version 2 developer preview is publicly accessible now. This isn’t the first time Google has had to address the issue of scrolling stuttering. Although Pixel 7 users found themselves plagued with similar issues, they later found relief in the Android 13 release.
It’s no fun getting close, but the idea that they’ll all work seamlessly on your Pixel, without any weird tweaks, is worth looking forward to in the future. The future is here! The world where surfaces are designed to move pixels flawlessly and work as they should!
