So i have a Tab S8 Ultra but i can't download extra edge panels from the galaxy store 

But on my S10+ i have this feature 

Honestly i think that on a tablet is more useful edge panel then the phone and if we have it on the phones why don't we have it on the tables

If somebody who is connected with Samsung can answer the question why is not a feature or simply  put it on the list to be added in the future that will be great

@Ceenivao: For clarity, when you head to Settings > Display > Edge panels > Panels, is the Galaxy Store button missing from the bottom of the screen? Are you able to send a screenshot of the Panels screen so I can gain a better understanding of the issue?

@Ceenivao: Thank you for that. I have gone ahead and passed your query to our Research and Development Team, and will get back to you as soon as I have more information to share.

I notice this is the case for all the tablets (S7 and S8 series at least).

Tab S6 as well. Not to mention Tab S4 where the Edge Panel is not even available. So frustrating.

I find this very frustrating as well.

There's an app called "1 Edge",  at Google Play store, that offers edge panels functionality to any Android device. Is the most elegant app of this kind I could find in app stores. I'm using it in my Galaxy Tab S4 as an alternative to the absent Samsung Edge Panels app.

It delivers less functionality than Samsung counterpart, especially the one available to (some) Samsung smartphones but delivers good experience. I just wish the developer could build integration to add panels from the Galaxy Store or similar functionality in the built-in panels. Calculator and Calendar, mainly.

I invite all people interested in this topic to try the app and give feedback to the developer, showing your interest in these features. 

Today the app is free, but I would not be bothered to pay a few bucks to have decent edge panel functionality and fuel some competition to Samsung at the same time.
