One UI 7 support delivers some highly requested features that many Galaxy users have been dreaming of.

Features of One UI 7 Samsung Home Up

New Animations Settings:

Home Gestures Animation tuning

One of the most amazing additions in this update is the new animation tuning for home screen gestures. Users can now choose from three different animation styles:

  • Pixel by Pixel – Enjoy the feeling of pure animation
  • The Scent of a Certain Fruit – Feel the sweet taste of red fruit
  • Simple Tuning – Pick between fast animations or more emotional ones.

Beyond these options, there is an option for Advanced tuning Settings that let you adjust specific aspects of the animations.

Advanced Tuning

With this feature, you can customize details like damping, stiffness, and friction for how icons move and scale. Users can also customize where icons track, and there’s an Interpolator option to tweak how the icon scale animations work. This means you can make the animations your own.

In addition to this, the Advanced tuning also includes options for scale, duration, and blur settings for the Home screen and Wallpaper.

Large Folder

Another noteworthy feature is the introduction of the large folder option. You can now choose between medium and large sizes for your app folders while keeping the size of existing large folders the same.

This gives you more control over how your home screen looks and helps you organize your apps better. You can also adjust the folder grid and change the icon sizes, adding to your personalization options.

Pop-Up Folder

The update also enhances the pop-up folder functionality. Users can now customize the size of pop-up folders with options for small, medium, and large. Additional settings allow for variable sizes, fixed positions, and even options to hide the edit bar and remove blur effects.

This next level of customization provides a cleaner, more organized interface while ensuring that users can access their favorite apps quickly.

Overall, the One UI 7 support for Samsung’s Home Up app offers a range of new features that many Galaxy users have been looking for. With fresh animation settings, flexible folder options, and improved pop-up folder features, this update enhances the way you interact with your device.

It’s important to note that these features aren’t available to all Galaxy users yet, but the company soon make them available for eligible devices.
