Screen doesn't scroll through 360

So I'm trying to explain the issue so bear with me.

If I want to go through my 5 screens with apps I have to go from screen 1-5 thern back 5-1 to get to the first screen rather than going form screen 5 to 1. It won't do a continuous 360.

It does this: 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1

I want to go 1-2-3-4-5-1-2-3.

Make sense? I could do that on my S5 but not the S6. Is there a setting that will change this for me?
 
Yes, this sucks. This was one of the things I really liked about the Galaxy. The S4 and S5 can do this, but the setting seems to be gone in S6. We want this back - don't make it like a crappy iPhone, please.
 
I noticed the same thing. Never knew how much i used that "feature" before now. I first noticed it with the apps menu. The apps drawer would allow continuous swiping in one direction.
 
The fast scrolling using the screen indicator dots is gone too. In fact touching a screen indicator dot no longer takes you to that screen. It just indexes over one screen at a time.

noticed that too - that for me is the most frustrating! I used that all the time!

Yes! I loved how on my Galaxy S5, when moving icons around the screens, I could just hover it over one of the little dots and it would take me to that screen. The S6 does not do this either
 
I think they took away this functionality to debloat the code for the S6. I am really hoping a future update at least gives us the option for these settings. It makes not sense to me to have a top of the line smartphone that is missing ease of use features that were previously available on lesser models. Its a PITA to swipe 6 times or tap the indicators 6 times to get from screen 1 to screen 7.
