Update your S24 fe

[Members_o2m7Cxd]

I received a message from Samsung saying Update your phone/running software,  I did yesterday morning and it's Absolutely USELESS. All my apps we're confused, they shrunken when I click on them, theres a horrible background colour, some have completely changed.  My advice to any other S24fe owners.  DONT DOWNLOAD IT .

Hi @Members_o2m7Cxd  welcome to the Samsung Community

There may be different opinions regarding one UI7 but a number see it as an advancement even if there a few gripes. It is really not a dramatic change and you can make a number of customisations even if it is not possible to reverse everything.

I am noy sure how familar you are with Good Lock but some information here https://news.samsung.com/global/exploring-good-lock-%E2%91%A0-the-ultimate-personalization-tool-disc...

There are also a number of Lauchers available if interested,personaly I just stick to Good Lock though. https://www.androidauthority.com/nova-launcher-alternative-3472177/

I don't get it. Updates never affect my background image or the size and colour of my apps. I am using a picture from my gallery and not a theme or display image from the Galaxy store, I suspect that's why my background image is safe.
I use a theme for my apps I have since almost two years ago, which has been transferred successfully over many phones with Smart Switch. I noticed that UI7 looks a bit different on tablets, but flagship phones have not been affected by UI7 update regarding the icons on my phones.
