One UI 4.0 Tip: Color Themes (Material You) with different color schemes
Samsung introduced various tweaks to the user interface and functionality with the release of Galaxy S21’s second One UI 4 Beta. The new version brings some new features and performance improvements too. One of the most important changes is the ability to dynamically apply your theme using the colors drawn in the current wallpaper.
This feature is one of the bases of Google’s Material You redesign on Android 12 on Pixel devices. The Samsung One UI 4.0 beta 2 dynamic theme engine doesn’t seem to behave as well as Google’s Monet on Pixel, but it brings an extra layer of custom to the UI one users have been asking for.
Samsung One UI 4.0 Colour Themes
The most notable change to the One UI beta 2 is the new color Themes options. This feature is enabled by long pressing on the home screen and navigating to the ‘Wallpaper’ menu. It is important to note that enabling this feature provides you with different color schemes to choose from. Each of these palettes is drawn to your current wallpaper.

How to choose Colour Themes on Galaxy S21 series
- Enabled by long pressing on the Home Screen.
- Navigating to the Wallpaper menu.
- Enabling features with different color schemes to choose from.
- Color designs are drawn to your current wallpaper.
Samsung’s theming feature is not as compelling as Google. While quick setting tiles have a theme and text accents in settings, you have no theme thumbnails. Color shading is also very different.
It’s easy to see that Google uses a wide variety of colors to put themes in both quick settings and other tones throughout their app. Samsung’s color theme feature seems to include a few colors into the whole theme, with very little variation in tint or gradients.
Samsung introduced a Sleep Apnea tracking feature with the Galaxy Watch 7 series. The company is now making the Sleep Apnea feature available for other Galaxy Watch models with One UI 6 update. Here, you can check how to enable and use this feature.
Sleep apnea is a condition where a person’s breathing becomes shallow or stops while they sleep. It’s a serious issue that can affect overall health. With the new feature, Samsung aims to help users easily detect if they might have sleep apnea.

- If you don’t see the app on your phone, start it from your watch first.
- Enable the Sleep Apnea feature by turning on the switch and following the prompts.
Make sure to wear your Galaxy Watch while you sleep. In the morning, open the Samsung Health Monitor app again to view your results in the Sleep Apnea tab. You can also tap “View history” to see your recorded sleep data.
This new feature gives users important insights into their sleep health. By offering an easy way to detect signs of sleep apnea, it can help users take steps toward better health.
For more detailed instructions, you can also check “the Instructions for use” section in the Samsung Health Monitor app. If you have the Galaxy Watch running One UI 6 Watch update, you can try out this feature.
Quality sleep is important for your health, but several people struggle to get enough. Lack of sleep can lead to serious health problems like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. To help improve sleep, Samsung has created the Galaxy Ring. It is a smart ring with AI technology that tracks your sleep and offers personalized tips to help you rest better.
Here you can check three advantages of the Samsung Galaxy Ring to improve your sleep.
Comfortable to Wear All Night
Samsung Galaxy Ring is lightweight and comfortable so you can wear it all night without issues. It comes in 9 different sizes, and a free sizing kit is included to help you find the best fit.
The ring can be worn on any finger, but the index finger is recommended for the best results. With a battery life of up to 7 days, you don’t have to worry about charging it every night.
Track Sleep Quality
Galaxy Ring features an Advanced Sleep Tracking feature, which helps to track different stages of sleep, including light, deep, and REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep. Each stage plays a different role in your body’s recovery. Deep sleep helps your body heal, while REM sleep is important for mental recovery.
By tracking how much time you spend in each stage, the Galaxy Ring helps you understand if you’re getting the quality sleep you need. It also checks your heart rate and heart rate variability, which can help spot sleep problems.
Healthier Tips
After tracking your sleep for a week, the Galaxy Ring provides personalized advice to help you improve your sleep habits. It might suggest things like adjusting your bedtime or avoiding caffeine before sleep. These tips make it easier to build a healthier sleep routine.
