Help Android 13 - slow response?

[groston]

On my new Pixel 7 Pro, which is rooted (just so that I can run AdAway and Nova Settings), the phone seems a bit slow to accept app input when I launch various apps. Two specific examples:

1. When I launch Enjoy Sudoku, which comes right up, when I tap 'Another Difficult' right away nothing happens. If I tap is again, again nothing happens. When I tap it the third time, the game starts. Also, if once the program launched, I do nothing for a couple of seconds and then tap 'Another Difficult', the game starts.
2. When I launch Shortyz, which comes right up, and try scrolling down to an unplayed crossword, nothing happens. The second swipe attempt works as does waiting a few seconds.

So, my question is simply this: Is there some setting I can adjust to make this time lag go away?

I have a Pixel 7. I don't have a lot of apps , but there isn't any slow response when starting an app.

Could it be screen sensitivity? Under Settings> Display> Screen Protector Mode Turing this on will increase the screen sensitivity

Hope that helps.

AugieTN: Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't help.

try wiping cache and data(optional) for the apps in question, then uninstall and re-install the apps.

Interesting suggestion, but... I actually used Swift Backup to move data (for just a few apps) from the old phone, and if I did as you suggest, all of that would be lost.

if you wipe data, then yes the data for each app will be gone. but i said it was optional.
