UI 7.0 App Screen Feedback

Recently got a new Galaxy S24+ and updated to UI 7.0. There were some changes I didn't love but could deal with. The big thing for me, though, is that the app screen is now a vertical scrolling page, instead of the horizontal scrolling pages there was before. I have never been a fan of endless scrolling pages such as this, and have always loved that my Galaxy (previously had a S22) did not have this feature.

I am aware there is a way to revert to the horizontal pages, but the apps are then in a "custom" order that, in my opinion, seems to be a senseless, random order. There is no way that I have found to revert back to an alphabetical, horizontal scrolling app screen. For a company like Samsung, which touts how customizable their user experience is, this seems like a huge misstep. Why is there no option to choose between horizontal and vertical, and between alphabetical and custom order? Would love to know if this is a feature that will be restored, or if there is a way to return to the previous app screen setup that I haven't found.

Hi @Dkg1203 

Welcome to the community forum.

Thank you for sharing. You might like to provide your feedback using the feedback function on your Members App. Your feedback from the Members App might have better impact on the people making the decisions.

It worth to note that the Stable release will be out from the 7th of April and it is very likely that it will differ from the Beta.

I agree on the vertical app screen, I thought my phone was counterfeit when I realised that the app screen is vertical. They introduced alot of new things due to UI7 but I wish they gave the option to have the app screen horizontal in alphabetical order again. I took all the Good Locks customisation options one by one trying to find an option to put the apps drawer in horizontal order but I couldn't find any. I hope they will review this in a future update.
