Fancied a change... redesigned my home screens with OneUI7

So since OneUI7... I have been wanting to change the look of my homescreens. The addition of being able to expand / enlarge folders in the homscreen and perform more customisation with OneUI7, has encouraged me to spend a little while doing this evening.

As a trial I first decided to switch the option to 'Home screen only'. This effectively turns off the app drawer and brings all icons into home. (Thanks for suggestion @Sonora).

Then the re- organisation of my home screen starts. This is work in progress... it is still completely stock Samsung UI. 

The next step might be to consider some customised icon packs and further HomeUp tweaking with goodlock. 

Will test and evaluate the new layout. Oh and my search bar is now no longer at the bottom when swiping down. It also no longer looks like an Apple iPhone !

Tha ability to enlarge and shrink folders makes things quite useful. You can select the tiny icon from the folder even without the folder opening...

Quite like the endless possibilities with the ui7 home screens. 1747516935409.jpg

I am trying to do this too but I can never seem to find enough time to organise my home screen so nice and neat. I really like this feature.

I've only made subtle moves to make the spacing tighter and slightly more dynamic looking placement instead of everything straight. Everything I need to use in one place and then my second page here. 1747517732949.jpg

I got used to not having an app drawer when I used to use my Honor and Huawei phones a few years ago. I might have to give it a whirl again! 😊

I have done a bit more customising with HomeUp.

Now someone please tell me that this doesnt look like an Apple phone 🍎...and my livelihood is no longer in question 😂

P.s. there are so many customisation possibilities.... I have only touched the tip of what is possible... should a user wish to. This is what makes Android stand out from the crowd.
