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.

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.
