One UI 6 Good Lock
As Samsung teased the One UI 6 and Good Lock’s news together, we expect the customization suite may also get an early launch. Notably, most of the Good Lock plugins will stop working following the Beta software installation, which requires major code changes to resume operation.
The company may introduce One UI 6 Beta next month, starting with the Galaxy S23 series. Good Lock will not be compatible with the Android 14 OS due to which, some plugins and stops will no longer remain accessible. Therefore, you will have to wait until stable software, followed by major app updates.
A few days back, Samsung released a new Calculator app update through Galaxy Store to select devices. Today, the Samsung Calculator app update with support for the upcoming OneUI 6.X version (One UI 6) is expanding to a number of Galaxy devices in India.
