When activating the "Circle to Search" feature via the navigation bar, the current visual cue is solely the bar's elevation. Pixel devices, in contrast, provide a subtle haptic feedback followed by an immediate visual pop upon activation.

I propose enhancing this user experience by incorporating a visual glow in Samsung AI's signature colors as the navigation bar is held, potentially culminating in an upward glow animation, similar to the double-tap interaction on iOS.

Furthermore, the long-press action on the power button to enable Gemini currently lacks any haptic or visual feedback. Pixel devices utilize a screen-squeeze effect for this function. I suggest implementing a comparable animation, or perhaps an improved visual cue such as a Samsung AI-themed glow around the bezels, akin to the iOS interaction.

I'd be happy if they just reverted back to the older circle to search with the fly-in colour animations and the old search bar, now it deafult to ai mode and I can't change my search without backing out and re-searching it

@JimWillFixIt,

Thanks for sharing your detailed suggestions! 👍 We appreciate your feedback on enhancing haptic and visual feedback for the "Circle to Search" feature and the power button long-press for Gemini. Your ideas about incorporating subtle haptic cues, visual glows, and animations inspired by other devices are valuable, and I’ll forward them to the Development Team for consideration in future updates 😊.
