Customizing the Quick Settings Panel

Members_vxjFm2h — Sun, 16 Feb 2025 15:40:42 GMT

Hi,

In the screenshot above I've highlighted, with red squares, the areas of my expanded Quick Settings Panel I'd like to hide/remove. The areas highlighted are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Comfort Shield, Dark Mode, Smart View, and Device Control.

Is it possible to replace them with optional tiles instead? I tried the Good Lock and QuickStar apps but couldn't find the appropriate settings.

One UI 6.1 and Android 14.

Thanks in advance.

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK and EU Community Customer to Customer Forum

Thank you for your question.

I believe you can move those sections but not delete them from view.

Hi! Welcome to the Samsung Members community.

You're not able to delete them, but you can move them. Click the little pen icon at the top right, hold, and drag the sections.

@Members_vxjFm2h: I have looked into this, and unfortunately the highlighted areas in your screenshot are an embedded feature of the expanded Quick Panel, and cannot be moved/removed. The pen icon in the top right allows you to customise the main Quick Panel itself, but this does not include the areas you have highlighted.

@AndrewL The icons he highlighted can be adjusted with the pen icon- as in being moved to different locations on that quick panel. The wifi/ bluetooth can be shifted anywhere on that quick panel, same goes with the smart view.

Past note: realising this is UI7 only

Unfortunately, adjusting certain icons is not an option on all versions of One UI. I'm running version 6.1, may I ask which version you're running?

Ah, I see. I'm running UI 7. That makes sense. When your device eventually gets the update, you'll be able to do the same.

Thank you for this. I have just this morning installed (in hindsight I regret doing so) the latest update for my Samsung S24 Ultra. It has completely changed so much of the interface and overall look. Why is this update so .... drastic, in terms of appearance, change of home screen icons, layout??

I also wanted to change the default Wi-Fi & Bluetooth which seem to be the 2 defaults for the pull down panel, but even trying to edit it (pencil icon) the only things I can seem to change are the main panel which you can add/remove. Am I correct in thinking that you can't actually remove / swap out the WiFi & Bluetooth defaults?

I don't like Bluetooth being there as I hardly use it, I'd replace with with Mobile Data.

Thank you , Fran
