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, please, for the sake of Elvis, do return BT and Alarm icon to the status bar!!
Or let us - users - decide, which icons to be visible there...😭

Well... I do have Galaxy S23+.
I´ve been thinking of getting a new S25+ (or wait a little bit for S26+...).
But after a week with One UI 7 it seems, that my next step is going to be Xiaomi - as soon as Samsung doesn't quickly return BT and Alarm icons to the status bar...😎

Agreed...with all the users, complaining here about "new clean?´" status bar...

Yes, not able to check BT and Alarms without swiping down is a bad decision, but the battery percentage icon is unreadable (and awful, too...). 😫

I just noticed that I don't see my alarm icon and other icons that used to be visible at the status bar! I need to see what is turned on at the moment. And the new battery bar is garbage. I regret that I upgraded to one ui7. Makes me think about switching to another brand. Used to love samsung. Now they just copy apple and they don't give us an option to use the old options instead.

I use Google clock and it doesn't appear. Was OK before on ui6

Please do it asap. Seems like Samsung did no research if you are asking this question.

I agree that both bluetooth and alarms should return to status bar. I find I'm doing more steps to check if a device is bluetooth connected, or if I have an alarm set.

Samsung is not firing the right people, because who ever thought of this design should not be in charge of user experience. I think its clear that people have passed beyond using their phones for entertainment purposes. They depend their lives on it.

Any changes that are going to be done, have to be announced before the update. So that we have the decision to update or not. Removing critical features like these should not be hidden under "Many UI fixes and Improvements".

 

Bring this back!
