I have this problem too

Please get this garbage UI off my phone. This combined with the terrible changes to the earbuds has me ready to ditch Samsung permanently. 

 

The forced updates when I hate the way the UI is are wrong. I had something I had a lot of money for that I liked and Samsung keeps changing the design. I am not ok with where things have moved to, specifically the new layout of the quick panel, the new app carousel, Google Gemini being FORCED onto my phone,  search bar being moved to the bottom of app screen and the notofications. I'm so sick of this company.

It's only natural to some to dislike change, but the UI hasn't really altered the phones functionality to any significant degree. Personally I've not noticed the changes for everyday use and find most to be cosmetic changes. This forced update isn't a new change either as all androids have been updated this way, the only difference now is this level of support extends to more than 3 years as it has been in the past. Most consider this a positive change and better value for money.

Thank you for pointing out that this setting isn't there. It appears that the Device and Media Control steps I provided were for One UI 6, rather than One UI 7. I do apologise for that misinformation there.

 any answer about the system language continuing to revert back to spanish after the update to oneui 7 this morning? I don't know spanish and am lucky it's only like half the apps that change.

You can disable Gemini anytime you want and move the search bar anywhere you want so how is that a good example of what you don't like

I completely agree. If this update isn't reverted I'll 100% be switching to a different provider. There are soooo many people complaining about the new updated UI but the response is "you'll get used to it". I do not want to get used to it. You should have the option to keep the old settings. 

There's no way to change the battery icon and percentage back to the old version.

There's no way to have the search bar on top like every ***** other app or browser.

There's no way to change the volume button design back to the old one. Whoever thought it would be fun to make the volume bar round so you have no idea really  what percentage it is on should be fired.

So many problems with functionality in name of "progress"??? "design"???

Will not be buying Samsung again if this isn't reverted.

  • Totally agree. Also this update has made some of my apps completely unusable! The navigation buttons at the bottom of screen are overlapping with apps buttons, so i cannot open the app chat box for help etc in my After Pay app now. The only way around it is changing my phone setting to swipe instead of bottom buttons to access that. Then changing it back after using that chat. Absolutely insane. All because of this update, was fine before!

I want the clutter at the bottom gone as well. Ui7 pissed me right off: "oh, here's a bunch of changes to your settings that you didnt ask for and that arent even explained even thlugh directly mess up the interface and usage that we were accustomed to for years, have fun".

I HATE IT AND I WANT IT GONE ASAP

Absolutely 💯 Also, if we wanted an IPhone (which most of these changes are to accommodate, iPhone users) I would have bought one! Soooo many Samsung users are extremely upset by this. Talk about disrespect to your customers!
