Samsung Good Lock One UI 7 app

Samsung has released a new update for its Good Lock app after it launched the app in more countries around the world. Good Lock is an amazing app for Samsung phones that lets users change and customize how their phone looks and works.

Before, only people in a few countries could use it, but now it’s available to more users through the Google Play Store. After the global launch, many people noticed that some popular modules in the app were missing or not working.

Samsung quickly noticed the issue of missing modules in the app and has now fixed it to provide a smoother experience. The modules that are now back and working include Home Up, ClickFace, NotiStar, MultiStar, and Display Assistant (Beta).

Now, users of the eligible Galaxy devices can download these modules without any issue. They can now easily find and install modules to use new functions.

At the same time, Samsung has also removed three modules – Galaxy to Share, Dropship, and RegiStar. These were only meant for users in South Korea, and it looks like they were added to the global version by mistake. This means that these modules might not be released globally.

Even though those three are no longer available, most users will be happy to see the main modules working again. Samsung aims to give a better experience to users everywhere with these updates.

One UI 8 Weather

One UI 8 seems to be bringing striking new design and animation tweaks to the Samsung Weather app. After leaked firmware for the top flagships, the Samsung Weather app from One UI 8 has been revealed for Galaxy devices.

Samsung Weather is getting massive design upgrades in the One UI 8 version. The app will get a dynamic background, improved characters, and overall visibility. Samsung has also significantly improved the visuals and animations.

One UI 7’s Weather app has a gradient background, which changes itself as per the weather conditions. One UI 8 takes it a step further by adding a more realistic character and wallpaper-like background to match the weather status.

If the atmosphere is cold, the background will adopt a design accordingly, and the character will also act like that.

In summer, the Sun will be displayed on the background, and the character will have a similar casual outfit, troubled by sweat.

In the rainy season, the raindrops appear even more real, and the character has also got some design upgrades, making it more natural.

Samsung will take three months to complete the One UI 7 rollout. April is dedicated to the 2024 flagship models, while May is for the remaining flagship phones, foldables, and tablets. June will welcome the update for all the Galaxy devices.

One UI 8 Leaks

Samsung is internally testing Android 16 on the recent flagship devices. The company has first uploaded the One UI 8 firmware on its Remote Test Lab website. Later, the official firmware was revealed and installed by power users.

One UI 8 is all about refining the changes and features added in One UI 7. At present, the update doesn’t seem to be bringing any exciting upgrades to the Galaxy S25 series, but expanding its features, such as Now Brief, to the older models.

Samsung to fix missing Good Lock menu in upcoming update

Samsung Good Lock

Samsung is planning to release a new update for its Good Lock app after some Galaxy users noticed a strange issue. The issue confused many users as it removed one of the important options.

Recently, after updating the Good Lock app, many users found that the Terrace menu was missing. Normally, there are three menus at the bottom of the app – Terrace, Plugins, and You. But after the update, Terrace disappeared for some people.

Many users were worried and wondered why the Terrace menu disappeared. A Samsung community moderator explained that this problem happens when the app has a problem connecting to the internet. If the network doesn’t work properly, the Terrace menu might not show up.

Moreover, the moderator mentioned that Samsung has already fixed this issue and will include the solution in the next update of the Good Lock app. So, users just need to wait a little for the update to arrive.

Samsung Good Lock issue

In the meantime, Samsung shared a quick tip that might help. If you see the Terrace menu is missing, try a quick fix. For that, close the Good Lock app completely (swipe it away from the recent apps screen) >> Open the app again. This might help the menu appear again.

Samsung is working hard to fix the problem with the new update. Once the new update is out, everything should go back to normal. Until then, try restarting the app.

Samsung Theme park One UI 7

Samsung Good Lock app, a favorite for Galaxy device customization, has recently revealed a big update for its Theme Park module. Announced in April 2025, this revamp brings faster theme creation and smarter features.

The Good Lock team shared the news as spring blooms, highlighting Samsung Theme Park app’s new capabilities. Users can now create and apply themes instantly, skipping the old APK installation method. This saves time and simplifies the process.

Editable themes

You can tweak or update previously created themes without starting from scratch. This makes it easier to keep your device’s look fresh and personalized over time.

Smarter icon integration

Newly installed apps automatically adopt your chosen icon pack’s design. This ensures a consistent aesthetic across your home screen without manual adjustments.

Advisory for seamless experience

Theme Park now syncs better with other Good Lock plugins, like QuickStar and Keys Cafe. For the best experience, update all plugins to their latest versions via the Galaxy Store.

Some trade-offs are also here

Image-based customization, such as applying images to themes, is temporarily unsupported. This affects features like keyboard keycap styles and home screen folder shapes.

Certain Theme Park options, like setting themes per app or changing color palettes, are not available. The team noted that these limitations are temporary and plans to restore them later.

Samsung is reviewing app compatibility to bring back these features in future updates. For now, the focus is on delivering a smoother, faster Theme Park experience with improved usability.
