Tips for smoother ui7

[GeoffAnderson]

So , i think everyone knows i hate the new update, so I won't go on about it. I have however learned that on my S24 ultra if you used themes from galaxy most will not work properly on the ui7 update, causing glitches. Delete old themes and use new from the store and I guarantee things will run smoother. Check in my themes for icons wallpapers that are no longer supported in ui7. Hopefully this helps a little guys .

And that now bar lol , what's that all about, even using one hand it's impossible to use properly, , I know I'm moaning but it's one major issue that can't be put back, notifications are 3 again instead of 5 also can't be reveresd . 😂

Now bar is one of the features I haven't yet really used, tbh—I ignore it. Its still in early stages and with hopefully get more uses later.

Functionality-wise, I use them for timers and music—which, if you press on the music album, it puts it back to how it was previously (big). What particularly do you not like about the now bar?

For the other part. If you haven't Submit feedback within the Samsung Members app: Support > Feedback

If you really like some themes and want to have them again, your only option is to contact the developers to upgrade the theme, Samsung really has nothing to do with it, they didn't develop those themes, and even Samsung didn't upgrade their themes, and they were really beautiful.

The music used to be bigger and in the middle of lock screen, now its a tiny pill shaped thing at the very bottom which for me isn't accessible and only expands a little. The previous version was bigger and more user friendly. As for notifications, prior to the update you could have up to 5 in the top panel before they went to dots , now it's reduced to 3 , with music player there as well when screen is unlocked .

I used some really lovely themes over the years , I understand that's developers not Samsung,

You can tap on music player in Now bar on empty space or album picture. I won't tell you what will be happen,  tap and see how is your music player big like never before on lock screen 😂🤭

[GeoffAnderson]

Just wow , thank you. I didn't realise it did that , genius 😊

Everyone does hate it, or at least, old users of Samsung.

When I'm playing music with Samsung Music, the lock screen is full with that player.
