Did a stupid thing the other day and upgraded my Galaxy S7 Edge to Android Version 8.  It is confusing to use and doesn't work correctly.  Is it possible to return to Version 7?

No. You can't revert to the previous version of the OS.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Updates are suppose to enhance your user experience. I know that there maybe some changes that can be a bit difficult to use. However, as stated by Ann154 you are unable to revert back to the older version once you have completed the update. What issues are you having with your device?
