It's the worst update of all times and wish I could revert it.Changed all my notifications settings,swipe down now is terrible split to left and right which is confusing, all my background colours changed to black and list goes on.Far too many bad changes and my phone is really annoying me now
Is it possible to revert back to previous version??

Notifications you can change easily
Swipe down from the right
Tap on the pen symbols
Tap panel settings
Then select together

Anything else just ask. Someone will likely know

If your talking about the app draw as well
Go into the app draw
Tap on the 3 dots
Then tap sort
Then select custom order

Hi! Welcome to the Samsung Members community!

Cannot answer your question as it's more of a statement than a question. Opinion isn't fact.

No, you cannot undo the update. But there are plenty of tips available.

A few tips I posted:

UI 7 Tip—Quick panel back to before UI 7/similar/combine both panels

UI 7 Tip—App drawer—from swipe to scroll
https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/samsung-lounge/ui7-tip-app-drawer-from-swipe-to-scroll/td-p/1227...

There are so many posts. If you are more specific, I'm sure people will help.

If you mean notifications on your lock screen? Settings—Lock screen—change to cards.

Personally I think the updates One UI7 and One UI8 beta are fabulous.

Some people get over excited about these things.

Most of what people are complaining about are because they don't bother to see how customisable their devices really are.
I am not employed by Samsung nor do I receive any remuneration as a Samsung Members Star.

My device is an S25 Ultra.

Is any having issues with their fd switch ling of when you open. Since the new update, my fold switches off. It starts again but heats up very quickly. Never had issues with the phone before the up date

When you've paid £1350 for a phone then you're full entitled to be upset that the look and feel of your phone has been completely changed. Yeah a couple of things can be put back but the vast majority can't no matter what you do with Good Lock.. Everything bout notifications and status icons is the worst design change imaginable and pill shaped stuff looks rediculous on a big screen with wasted space both inside the notification and around it. All aspects of the charging icons /animations are awful and the AOD screen is destroyed

Interesting, I barely noticed a single change. Guess some have very very finicky tastes and can't accept the smallest changes and differences. As already answered, no you can't revert to the previous version, but there's a million ways to customise your UI. If Samsung have somehow completely altered your DEFAULT UI experience than to something that seems so grossly unaccessible to you, then you know what to do.
