This new update sucks it reminds me of apple. It has made doing things with 1 hand incredibly inconvenient. Is it possible to reverse. I left apple years ago because of how horrible there os looked and samsung is turing into a cheap version of apple. Plz tell me there is a way to reverse the update or change the icon styles while removing the two different swipe down sides one for notifications and the other side for setting. And change that horrible bubble that shows a battery % and change it back to its former style. Basically if I can't get rid of the downgrade of a software they upgraded me to can I swap everything back to the style of the old os. If I can't I might as well switch to apple because if I am going to have to use a worse version of apple might as well just use the same thing and I am asking for 6people rn my entire family is collectively losing there minds over how bad this update was. So plz any help would be extremely recommended.

They're taking the *****. You can go back to the old version, only by deleting everything from your phone though and messing around with the files with an app on your pc

While physically possible it immediately voids the warranty, so if you mess up/ brick your device- done for

Hey guys! How to downgrade to my old UI from UI 7 as this new update is ugly, hideous in every way possible! I feel like I own an iPhone now and trust me I hate Apple products! So yeah... how do I downgrade back to UI 6.1? Thank you!

You can't downgrade. Not much else to say on that, you can't downgrade updates. (To be fully accurate some you can but not most, not this one)

Instead of asking how to downgrade. How about you tell us what exactly you don't like and we can tell you ways to tweak it

The icons want them as the old icons, the lockscreen the music player location can't be moved, it was large and better now it's stuck where I don't like and the old UI had the lockscreen alarm remaining hours and mins, now I have to unlock my phone go into my alarms and check manually how many hours left until next alarm 😭

For notifications you could use a notification pack or use galaxy themes to change them.

For alarms, you could add a widget to the lock screen displaying when your next alarm is.

I don't control music on my lock screen so don't have a tip for that part

I know the widget but it only tells you the next alarm but not the remaining hours until the next one.

Simply? You can't

Use customisation or if that doesn't suit, go to GoodLock

As for saying it looks like iPhone, it looks NOTHING LIKE iPhone
I am not employed by Samsung nor do I receive any remuneration as a Samsung Members Star.

My device is an S25 Ultra.

Had a look around, couldn't find anything so fair enough. In the support section of this app, you can use the send feedback button to directly tell samsung
