Lately (last few weeks or so) my Pixel 6 Pro has developed an incredibly frustrating contactless payments problem.
Out of the blue it will become really, really slow to respond to tapping for a payment, taking 5 -20 seconds to actually open the Google Wallet/Pay app and do it’s thing. If I tap and it’s not immediately opened I’ve tried to open the app via the quick tile but the button is non-responsive. Eventually it’ll open and then I can pay.
Once it’s acting like this it’ll do it indefinitely, but I can fix it by restarting the phone. Then payments (and opening the app) are near instant as they should be.
Anyone else seen anything like this? Any solutions?
Pixel 5 and mine was missing contactless payment randomly and often, tech support unhelpful. They said it was the terminal. But since last update, no problems so far.
When was that update?
5-August, it just says “version 13”. But that definitely made some change that fixed the issue for my phone. Despite the support guys’ insistence that it wasn’t the phone.
