Pixel Fold users complain about "sticky scrolling" issues on the inner screen
Google Pixel Fold owners are reporting problems with "sticky scrolling" on the home screens of their devices.
Here's What We Know
This problem occurs when you release your finger after scrolling, but the screen continues to move for a while.
Foldable phones often face issues that are not typical of traditional flagships, and the Google Pixel Fold may be the latest example of this. Several users have reported problems with scrolling the Pixel Fold, particularly when using the home screen. These Pixel Fold owners have taken to social media sites such as X (formerly Twitter), Reddit, as well as Google Pixel Phone help forums to describe the issues.

The problem is called "sticky scrolling" and it occurs because Android turns off scrolling inertia.
Users have been reporting this issue for some time now, but there is no clear answer from Google yet. One post on Reddit describes that the problem first appeared on Android 13 and continues on Android 14. It seems that the inertial scrolling issue only affects the home screen, but there are conflicting reports.
Some reports indicate that the glitch may be related to an update to the Android operating system on the device, and owners are hoping for a quick fix from Google.
