The Suggestions & Ideas Thread (for software-based features/apps for mobile, tablets, & wearables)

[AntS]

Hi all! 😃

If you have any suggestions for features or apps, then please share them with us here.

True Multi touch in One UI and eventually wider Android:

For example when selecting files in a file manager or interacting with content in any app, it would be great to able to truly tap and hold Two different items at the same time

Two Ultrasonic Fingerprint sensors:

Does anyone remember the excitement of the Vivo Apex smartphone 6 years ago? It was a concept phone of 2018 not released into any markets.

This same phone allowed for Two separate on-screen Fingerprint sensors.

I still this is an awesome feature and can have some fun, practical and ultra secure uses such as Husband and Wife or two work colleagues working on sensitive data files.

It would be great if a future Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet could research and invest in this before Apple do.

For the ideas to work concerning "Force Full screen for all apps" or "Hide status bar for all apps" - then a small floating app icon with app name could appear in the top right corner of the app. Or the top left corner of the screen for users around the world with right-to-left languages such as Arabic, Hebrew etc

This app icon would simply function as a visual indicator to remind end-users what app they're currently using whilst the status bar (and other app bars) are hidden away.

Perhaps the app name could be in a semi-circle shape (circular text) that would surround the bottom half of the floating app icon.

This would look so cool and well thought out.

Feature request: Clipboard app (native Samsung app)

This would be for users like myself who use third-party Keyboard apps with poor or restricted integrated clipboard.

Fingerprint animation customisation (for lock screen and everywhere) - Scan line animation

This is the type of Fingerprint animation "scan line" that I wish Samsung One UI would give us for the Lock screen and everywhere else:

Super precise frictionless scrolling for One UI (just like iOS):

I found this video on iOS precise frictionless scrolling. Notice how even the smallest ting flick of the finger makes the scrolling react. We need this for One UI. Watch the video:

Feature idea: Multi-colour light up (few pixels) of the Always-on-display to replicate classic Notification light

This idea came from a comment posted on this video:

Samsung Internet app:

Some slight renaming could be considered by the Dev team.

"Open in new tab"
"Open in new other window"

Could use the name "Duplicate"

So be better as the below:

"Duplicate to new tab"
"Duplicate to new window"


Duplicate sounds clearer in English and most languages.

In relation to this idea, I previously also requested that a same "Copy link" feature be added to the Tab options.

Please make the status bar icons have an adaptable color or black and white mode so we can see those icons even when the wallpaper is of a lighter color. They are always white and I can't see them properly when I have a lighter wallpaper.

S Pen customisation of it's button (OneUI) :

Unfortunately there is no Screenshot option nor is there no Single Press option in the "Anywhere actions" of Air Actions.

I want to be able to customise the Single press to be able to take a simple Screenshot within any app or Homescreen that I'm in.

This is quite shocking that this does not exist for the S Pen as yet. Basically, all that is wanted is some settings for users to use to be able to remap the button press of the S Pen.

Single press, double press.

It would be awesome to be able to take a burst of screenshots by doing rapid single presssing of the S Pen button.

Please add more S pen customisation settings such as this.

Samsung Galaxy device users should not have to resort to using invasive apps such as "PenStar" - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.threestars.penstar
