One UI 7: Bluetooth and alarm icon not showing in status bar (top right)?

[Members_VrPCVuL]

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.

Cannot believe this "feature" has to be requested. Every smartphone I've owend within the last 10 years had a BT icon in the status bar when active... Unbelievable, bring it back!

Yes to seeing it back.

There are multiple settings in Quickstar that don't have any effect anymore, they are literally broken and the moderator is asking if they should add the icons back in and only if enough people want it back. Unbelievable... I have no words for this.

Yes, bring it back. 

It's so sad. No improvement. Only removing features or changing looks for the bad...like the battery icon. So annoying.

This is so crazy to remove. 

It's like removing the calling feature. 

What you want to call someone with your phone? Then please reply to the topic. If enough people want this feature then maybe we will bring it back with an update in some months.

yes please bring back this information or give us an option in the status bar settings

Regarding the battery icon, I agree that it looks terrible apart from the visual aspect, but it is also not visible well since the numbers are displayed in reverse. I have a problem with my eyes. and I see a lighting dot on the screen, and it is hard to read the numbers. When it was just a frame in the shape of a battery and white numbers in it, things looked stylish.

My morning wake up changes during the week so it's important to quick see if alarms are set. Please bring this back!

I agree with OP. I use headphones a lot on my phone, not having this icon visible is extremely frustrating and annoying i'd like to know when my headphones are connected before I start playing music or watching videos without having to do a secondary action in order to see if it's connected.

It's ridiculous and frustrating. I specifically chose Samsung for its customizability. I like that i can customize the colors in the UI of my own phone and the icons that my phone displays. Please at least add this to a good lock module so that we have the choice whether or not we would like to see this icon, It wouldn't be that hard, considering you already have a good lock module that is built with this purpose in mind you can disable/enable icons already just not this one. And you can't even enable it by removing it from the icon_blacklist using an adb command. To me, this seems extremely intentional that Samsung made it so we do not have the choice.
