Seriously Samsung, why??? Please at least allow people to select which icons they want to see. Knowing about a connected(!) bluetooth device or an alarm that is set is absolutely essential. Needs to be visible without swiping down first.

Please allow rollback to the previous status bar as an option.  I depend on being able to instantly read my weather app information, Bluetooth, what apps are turned on, etc, when I get up in the morning or ready to go out later on.  Having to swipe down and scroll to read everything to get to what I need makes for WAY too much work and extra time wasted.  This was the worst change EVER!!

Agree with everyone else, please reinstate the icons. A toggle would be great as not everyone may want this.

Indeed with everyone. Any update on this?

Absolutely hate many things in OneUI 7, simple things become complicated and hidden under more swipes or buttes. Using Samsung for 10years already and so far this is the worst update.

Is there a plan to get this back? If they wanted to make the status bar less cluttered, they should've given us choices to choose from. Personally, i only care about wifi and Bluetooth.

I would like to express my complete disagreement with the changes you made in UI 7 regarding the hiding of important information from the status bar. I thought this could be reverted through QuickStar, but to my surprise, it is not possible.

I want to express my discontent to the designers: what is this new trend of hiding important system icons? Starting with the mobile network name, the type of network used (Edge, 3G, LTE, 5G), which is now only available when data transmission is enabled. And now even the alarm, Bluetooth, VoLTE, VoNR, VoWi-Fi icons are hidden. A phone is primarily a device for working in a mobile network, and I want to see all the icons that should be in the status bar. Or at least be able to enable them.

I do not understand who came up with such an "improvement". I urge you to reconsider this decision and return the ability to display all icons in the status bar.

Additionally, I use a Z-flip and I am also puzzled: why is there absolutely no status bar information on the external screen? Why is there no signal strength, network technology, or even the network name? Is the external screen really so small that this information cannot fit?

For the love of god, yes! Why does this even need to be suggested?
