I can't help but wonder if I'm actually on a beta program, or is Samsung running different streamlines of the same beta software!

I've seen clips on YouTube where people are showing features, most noticeably the lock screen clock positioning, which I do not have on my beta software!

Am I missing something here?

I've seen the same clips on YouTube. Also it shows it reading out the now brief. These features have never been available on the betas that I've tested. These YouTube clips are from Sammobile and I think they get test builds of the Samsung servers that aren't available to the general public.

Hello @Moyah876,

It appears that some YouTube content creators might be showcasing features from test builds or leaked versions that aren’t part of the official beta program available to the general public. Rest assured, there is only one stream of updates and if you have signed up for the Beta Programme through Samsung Members app - you are part of it 😊

Have a good day! ☀️

Moiromon is basically correct. They are essentially videos from leaked builds with people hoping we will see these feature at some point. Most likely they will either not see the light of day or are currently too unstable for public consumption

Hi @Moyah876 I don't know, precisely what you mention. However, certain parts can be found, in a coming apps, loosely grouped as parts like goodlock module programs, perhaps "notystar" and other programs, Samsung Lab verity, new with added parts.

Hi @Stevo-007, I think this is more like what the other two before mentioned. Its leaked branches that they are testing and present on YouTube as if they are from the beta, which they are not.

The YouTube videos I've seen are from Sammobile. The poster seems to be in Australia and in one of the clips he posts a clip of the now brief read aloud feature that was read out in an Australian accent. As far as I'm aware Australia isn't in the beta program so they must be test builds from Samsung servers and not official Beta builds.

That's correct. Its the same YouTube video I saw. I wish they would state that in their videos as they are misleading

He always states what version of the software he is using, and made it quite clear that it was a test build and not the beta software.

I know because I was trawling the Internet looking for it.
