Disappointed users rated 1 star for Samsung Members app in India after One UI 7 beta delay
Samsung India has called for a delay in the One UI 7 (Android 15) beta program launch. This decision led to community-wide disappointment among Galaxy S24 users and a sudden backlash.
The One UI beta program enables Galaxy smartphone users to test the latest software features ahead of the full (stable) release. On December 5th, the phone maker opened this beta activity for US, German, and Korean users.
Models from the Galaxy S24 series – standard, plus, and ultra can sign up for the beta program via the Samsung Members app to download the beta software.
Besides these three markets, Samsung also announced an expansion to India and Poland. The beta software for India markets was projected for December 12th, confirmed by the customer service representatives.
“The Galaxy S24 series Beta UI 7 update is expected to be released on December 12th,” replied Samsung India in a customer query chat.
Earlier today, the company modified this information, informing customers that the date has now changed to December 16th.
Samsung has shared no reason behind this delay, leading to a disappointment shower from Galaxy S24 users.
Some Galaxy S24 owners in India even reached the Google Play and Galaxy Store to mark a 1-star rating for the Samsung Members app to show their disappointment with the One UI 7 beta delay.
“Samsung India, your negligence and disregard for Indian customers is appalling. You promised us timely software updates, but instead, you’ve left us in the dark. The delayed One UI 7 Beta rollout is a slap in the face to loyal customers like myself.” wrote a user while rating the Samsung Members app on December 12.
“India waiting for One Ul 7 beta for a very long time and u keep postponing always it’s not fair at all so half star in behalf of all users,” wrote another.
The majority of Galaxy owners allege Samsung is not prioritizing Indian users for One UI beta program despite the large user base. Meanwhile, the company has yet to respond on this matter.
One UI 7
This new software update comes with new changes in the user interface, which starts with the home screen featuring new app icons. It has refreshed elements in the quick settings and notification panels.
The animations are smoothed and the overall experience has been improved compared to One UI 6.

Samsung responds to Android Auto complaints in One UI 7 Beta
Samsung users reported having Android Auto compatibility issues in One UI 7 Beta. The automotive platform keeps disconnected, ruining the experience. Samsung acknowledged the issue and shared some steps for consumers to follow.
Some One UI 7 participants reported compatibility issues with Android Auto. The system randomly disconnects and reconnects during navigation. After reconnecting, the interface defaults to the car’s home screen, requiring users to manually relaunch.
Samsung community moderator believes that the problem may stem from incompatibility between the car’s Android Auto version and the One UI 7 Beta. The official version will be fully compatible and you will have no incompatibility concerns.
In addition, the moderator urged affected users to submit an error report via the Samsung Members app. User feedback is important during the Beta testing of the upcoming software, here’s how to submit an error report:
- Open Samsung Members: Launch the app on your phone.
- Access Beta Feedback: Navigate to One UI Beta Program > Beta Feedback.
- Attach Relevant Information: Include screenshots or recordings of the issue, if possible.
- Send System Logs: Ensure the option to “Send system log data” is checked.
- Timely Submission: Submit the report within 15 minutes of reproducing the issue for accurate log data collection.
Meanwhile, we suggest you keep the Android Auto application updated. You can try clearing the app cache and restarting the device to see if it addresses the issue. Don’t forget to help other users by sharing a workaround if you discover.

Samsung delays One UI 7 Beta in India, shares new release date
Samsung users in India eagerly await the One UI 7 Beta Program. The company’s support wing previously promised the rollout scheduled for December 12. Now, Samsung support in India states that the One UI 7 Beta has a new release date.
The One UI 7 Beta Program was initially started on December 5, 2025. It is already available in Germany, South Korea, the UK, and the US. As the One UI 7 Beta release was again delayed, Indian users got furious over Samsung – and why not?
Per the latest info, Samsung will now launch the One UI 7 Beta Program in India next week. The support experts are now promising the Beta to be available starting December 16.
India has a pretty large consumer base for Samsung Galaxy devices. The company may have been ensuring stability as a minor mistake could harm thousands of Galaxy devices in India.
As the Beta Program expansion is delayed, we may not see the One UI 7 Beta 2 rollout today. Over the past few days, we’ve encountered reports claiming Beta 2 will release on December 12.
