S pen writing not shown on OneNote android app until lift off screen. Any idea how to fix?

I have a Samsung galaxy S22 ultra. Writing in the OneNote app with my S pen has just become very tricky. Writing does not appear until I take the pen off the screen. So if you try to draw a circle, you do not know where you started until you finish your action and remove your pen from the screen. This only happens on my Galaxy S22 ultra. It does not happen on my Galaxy tab.

Has anyone experienced this and know a fix?

    It has worked for me.

    I just want to add one more voice to this thread.

    OneNote for Android was working as expected up to version 16.0.16529.20142; downgrading to this version makes the SPen work like it should.

    Any version above this one (16.0.16626.20166 or 16.0.16731.20166, the available higher versions at the time of this writing) both exhibit the problem of OneNote not displaying any SPen writing until the stylus is lifted from the screen.

    Is there any ETA on solving this issue??

    it works for me thanks, but I think we should insist that the problem is solved and also work the new versions on the S22! Maybe even exert pressure on MS via Samsung ? Who can do that ?
