WhatsApp has pushed a new update for Android, which shows the Accessibility Menu is under development. The new update arrives with version 2.25.15.22 through the Google Play Beta Program.

In the latest beta update, WhatsApp is developing a new accessibility menu for Android users. It includes a setting to help users increase contrast. This means users will be able to make text, buttons, and other elements easier to see by making them more visible more from the background.

This is especially useful for people who have trouble seeing certain colors, have low vision, or who use WhatsApp in bright or dark lighting. When this feature is turned on, it will improve how clearly things appear on the screen to make the app easier to read and use.

Samsung LockStar One UI 7 support

Samsung’s One UI 7 update brings new features and changes to its Good Lock app, which many Galaxy users love for customizing their phones. While there are some new modules and improvements, one amazing clock feature has quietly been removed from the Samsung LockStar Good Lock module.

In One UI 6.x, users could tap on the clock in Samsung LockStar settings and see a minus (–) icon to remove it from the lock screen. This gave users the choice to have a clean look without a clock on the lock screen.

But now, after updating to One UI 7, the clock-off function is no longer available. Tapping the clock only shows basic customization tools, but not the remove (minus icon) option.

Many users noticed this and shared their disappointment through Reddit and the Samsung Members app. Galaxy smartphone users reported that they want to remove the lock screen clock, but after updating to One UI 7. It seems that the function to turn off the lock screen clock has disappeared in Good Lock.

Samsung community moderator has responded to these concerns. The reply confirmed that the clock-off option of LockStar is no longer supported in One UI 7. Moreover, the moderator also mentioned that the feedback will be passed on to the development team for future review.

This change has upset several Galaxy users who enjoyed having full control over their lock screen layout. They are now hoping Samsung will bring back this feature in a future update.

For now, users will have to keep the clock on their lock screen unless Samsung decides to bring back the option.

In addition to the clock-off function, Samsung has also removed the LockStar’s notification customization options like adjusting the transparency, size, color, and type of notifications with One UI 7.

Samsung Clock app limits you to only 100 alarms – Here’s how to manage them effectively

Samsung Galaxy S25 Apps

Many of us rely on alarms to wake up, remind us of important tasks, or manage our day. However, if you have a Samsung Galaxy phone, you might find that there’s a limit to how many alarms you can set via the Samsung Clock app.

Recently, it has been spotted that via a Reddit user that the Samsung Clock app only allows a maximum of 100 alarms. It might be surprising for those who set multiple reminders throughout the day.

This 100-alarm limit on the Samsung Clock app has been in place for a few years now, and it applies to several Samsung models, including the latest Galaxy S25 Ultra. About five years ago, the limit was 50 alarms, but Samsung doubled it.

While 100 alarms might seem like a lot, for some people with busy schedules, it could feel restrictive. Once you hit that limit, you can’t add any more alarms unless you delete some.

If you often set many alarms for different tasks or reminders, you may need to keep track of them carefully. If you don’t clean up your old alarms, you could run out of space when you need a new one.

The best way to stay under the limit is to regularly delete alarms you no longer need. Moreover, if you find yourself setting a lot of short reminders, it’s a good to use timers instead. Timers don’t count toward the 100-alarm limit and can be just as effective for staying on schedule.
