Help Change the way an alarm is dismissed

Up until yesterday, when the clock alarm "dismiss" button appears from a locked screen, a simple tap on the button stopped the alarm, the same as it would if the device was unlocked and the "dismiss" link that appears at the top of the screen was dispatched with a single tap.

Now, I must press on the button and maintain the pressure as I swipe up to get task done. Some times it takes multiple attempts to be successful.

I had a system update yesterday, and I didn't experience the change until after the update, so perhaps it is connected to that?

Yeh, it could be something Samsung changed with the update. If you can change it back, I don't know as I don't have this phone.
