Hello One UI and Good Lock teams,

Please see the two attached videos on this message.

The videos show the Homescreen 'Bounce' animation effect that occurs when swiping the Home nav gesture on iPhone 14 vs Samsung Galaxy S23

This Bounce effect is missing from the One UI Good Lock gestures when "Swipe from the bottom" is enabled.

Please fix this to include the Bounce effect

Request: A forced semi-transparent Status Bar on One UI in settings. 

Opacity of status bar user-customizable, forced for all apps a user chooses. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: It's important to note that this is slightly different from Immersion Mode (Full screen apps feature in One UI). This is because the Status Bar would not auto-hide, but be visuale all the time just semi-transparent and by being visible would still act as a display alignment especially with phones with camera notches. 

It would be so great if I could 'force' any installed app such as Chrome or Simple Gallery Pro to obey my own system status bar setting of transparency.

As it is visually stunning when vertical scrolling any content and having it scroll flow beneath a semi-transparent Status Bar.

A great example of this feature already in action is how Google Maps have natively implemented a semi-transparent Status Bar.

I know that this is up to app developers, however some app developers want their "own thing" and as a Samsung user who likes UI / UX customisation on my device, it's just something I and I'm sure many users would love with the status bar.

Trying to use my watch ultra 7 to count excercise reps, (shoulder press) never works.

Doesn't record start position or record reps, is there anyway to simply record a change of direction as a rep? Rather than a pre assigned exercise which never seems to work. 

Or maybe even record a range or motion that is custom to the excersise you want to complete so the watch has a sense of the motion you would consider one rep. 

Super frustrating and I've read people having the same issue with other excersizes. Urgh.

Hi @01kingJD and may I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum 👋 

I personally do not use the Health App in this way so haven't experienced this issue. 

It might be an idea to send this as Feedback via the Samsung Members App too for Samsung to analyse.

Request for Samsung Internet app: Ability to "Copy Web address" by tap & hold on any tab

Currently the only way to grab a visited page's url link (copy to clipboard) within Samsung Internet is to click on the address bar and hold to get the option to copy it. This is a little tedious as it creates steps to fulfil and it also is visually messy. This original method should be maintained.

What would be cool is an enhancement whereby when we tap & hold on any tab within the Samsung Internet app, a "Copy address" option would show amongst the other tab menu options.

Request for Samsung Internet app: Ability to "Paste and Go" by tap & hold on any tab.

There are many "Paste and Go" extension addons for both Firefox and Chrome. I still use them as addons on Firefox browser on Windows desktop.

All "Paste and Go" does is allow any clipboard copied url link to be immediately launched (opened) in the browser, rather than a step process of manually pasting the link into the address bar and manually launching it.

Please add a native "Paste and Go" feature into the tab menu options as this would be great for productivity and web browsing efficiency.

This is the iOS like scrolling effect behavior that would be great for all of One UI. For years iOS have astounded me in how graceful even the faintest flick of the finger when scrolling has the content come to a very delayed stop. Beautiful.

The intended behaviour is when the scroll just continues and continues to a slow stop after each and any light flick of the finger. Beautiful. It would be great as either  default or user option in the One UI system settings.

Request for Samsung Messages app:

The basic ability to "Copy number" to clipboard inside any Conversation of the Messages app. This would ideally be implemented without the need to for multiple tapping and menu processes. 

Copy number to clipboard from within Conversations view and list I the Messages app.
