Here’s why Samsung doesn’t support free widget resizing
Some Samsung Galaxy users have recently raised concerns about the pop-up windows for widgets on their devices. They want to resize the widgets to make them more suitable for one-handed operation, but they are unable to do so.
The main issue is that users want to resize these widgets more freely. Instead of being stuck with fixed sizes, they want to be able to adjust the size by dragging, which would make it much easier to use their devices comfortably.
Currently, most widgets only come in fixed sizes. Users mentioned that smaller widgets often look unattractive with too much empty space around them. This not only makes the screen look messy but also makes it harder to use the device with one hand.
However, a Samsung Community moderator has acknowledged the feedback. He has mentioned that while some apps allow for different widget sizes, most only support a limited selection of fixed sizes. This is due to avoiding widgets being cut off or not showing up properly.
Unfortunately, the option to freely resize all widgets isn’t available right now. This is made to keep the design clean and well-optimized. However, it can make using a device with one hand more difficult but you will surely get useful information on widgets instead of incomplete ones.
As more users express the need for better one-handed usability, Samsung is listing feedback to working on As more users request improved one-handed usability, Samsung is listening to feedback and working on optimizing widget sizes.
Allowing users to customize these sizes could make devices much easier to use, though it may also lead to some issues. However, Samsung is regularly working to provide a better experience that meets user needs. Users can expect more updates and changes related to widgets in the future.

Will Samsung run One UI 7 Beta Program in all countries?
Samsung is making pretty different decisions this year, but the question remains the same: will the company run the One UI 7 Beta Program in all countries?
One UI Beta Program was available in seven countries until the last year. This year’s Beta Program didn’t go live in the usual August timeframe, but Samsung confirmed it’s coming later this year.
The One UI 7 Beta will be available for developers by the end of this year. However, the final version will be launched alongside the new Galaxy S series early next year.
Samsung teased a few changes and new features to be included in One UI 7. The software promises to offer a reliable experience, stable functional performance, and useful features.
One UI Beta should be a global affair is a long-standing demand. The Korean tech giant significantly delayed this year’s software distribution plan for all Galaxy devices.
As Beta coming in late 2024 and Stable in early 2025, we assume a short-term Beta Program. Meanwhile, the company hasn’t revealed the market availability of the upcoming Beta.
Running One UI 7 Beta in all countries would be like inviting everyone to a party. It would also help Samsung developers find any little problems before the final version comes out next year.
With the One UI Beta Program in all countries, Samsung could get feedback from a vast audience. Global Beta Program is a difficult task, but think of the payoff: a better product, happier customers.
Shouldn’t Samsung launch One UI 7 Beta in all countries?
📱✨ Will Samsung launch the One UI 7 Beta Program globally? 🌍🤔
