One UI 7.0: Bluetooth icon in status bar gone

[Wendolean]

Since One UI 7.0 the Bluetooth icon in the status bar is gone. Before that an active Bluetooth connection was directly visible which is extremely helpful if you have to switch your headset between smartphone and computer. Now you have to swipe down to open the notification area. This is an unnecessary functional deterioration.

Please bring back the formerly perfect behavior of the status bar.

[EDIT:] … and if there have even more icons disappeared: please allow all icons to appear in the status bar with QuickStar (Good Lock) to be shown and prioritized. QuickStar does not distinguish between "Bluetooth" and "Bluetooth with active connection". Adding this would be the best solution.

Agree 100%, why would they have thought providing really useful info at the top of the screen is bad? Why not get rid of the clock and other 'clutter'?! (That's ironic by the way)

Please bring it back or give us the option to switch these useful symbols on and off

I cannot belive this is still an issue in UI 8. Is somebody at Samsung reading users requests ?

This is so annoying that I'm thinking of buying a different phone ...

I bought my S25 for the HW specs. But after this SW experience it will be my last Samsung!

Samsung should take an example from this gentleman: https://youtu.be/xsgl5x4WHyk?si=ho9XgVywqqQYWg7O&t=1340
This is how you treat your customers!
