How to remove Samsung color palette from app icons
Color Palette is the modern way to personalize your Galaxy phone. Your Samsung phone’s system picks up the dominant color palette whenever you apply a new wallpaper or theme and spreads it as accent colors to the complete user interface, including app icons.

The quick settings panel, volume panel, app interface, settings page, etc look great when the color palette is applied but the home screen and app drawer don’t. Samsung color palette only supports the Samsung applications therefore, it only applies to these app icons.

But it is not at all that our Samsung phones have only the company’s apps, we also use Google and other third-party apps. And the app drawer of Galaxy phones looks really bad when one theme is applied to half the app icons and not the rest.

Fortunately, the company allows you to not apply the color palette to any app icon so the complete app drawer can look similar. On the other hand, it’s expected that the upcoming Android 13-based One UI 5.0 will apply a color palette to third-party apps as well.
How to remove color palette from app icons:
- Open your device Settings.
- Tap on the Wallpaper and Style options.
- Choose Color Palette.
- Now, you can choose a palette based on colors from your wallpaper.
- By clicking on the different palettes, you can preview the changes on the screen.
- If you don’t want to change app icons’ colors as per the palette then you can turn off Apply palette to the app icons toggle.
- Finally, tap the Done option.
Samsung Galaxy phones come with a Secure Folder feature for enhanced data protection. It works as a dedicated compartment in your Galaxy smartphone where you can store different kinds of files (photos, videos) and installed applications.
The Knox technology provides layers of security and privacy, not only to protect users but also to give them a choice in what they want to secure. For those who want to keep their most personal information separate and safe, there’s Secure Folder.
Photos, videos, and files stored in Secure Folder won’t be accessible in regular apps. If you need them, you have to access the Secure Folder – authentication required. It takes the security and user privacy to a whole new level and the data is secured by Samsung on-device.
Secure Folder can keep your most private data such as calendar schedules and contact info, as well as notes, photos, videos, files, and even apps. You can even encrypt the Secure Folder to keep your apps and data even more locked down until the next time you open the folder.
You can find Secure Folder in your apps.
The first time you open it, you’ll have to set your lock type to either a PIN, pattern, or password, with fingerprint authentication can be enabled as well. Anything you create within the Secure Folder will be automatically stored here, but you can also move data here at any time.
For instance, if you want to keep a copy of your driver’s license, you can take a photo of it using the Camera app within Secure Folder, or you can pick a photo in your Gallery, tap the options menu (the three dots) and then select ‘Move to Secure Folder.’

Samsung Galaxy S24 series introduced several new features and enhancements with the One UI 6.1, one of which is Intelligent Optimization. This feature is designed to give users specific control over the image processing levels directly from the camera settings.
The Intelligent Optimization feature allows users to adjust how their photos are processed. Whether capturing everyday moments or professional shots, the Intelligent Optimization feature in One UI 6.1 ensures that your photos meet your standards with minimal effort.
How to activate it?
You can easily enable the Intelligent Optimization feature by following the steps below.

- Tap on Intelligent Optimization.
- Choose the desired optimization level
- Maximum
- Medium: Speed up capture time by doing less optimization
- Minimum: Take pictures as fast as possible by not optimizing pictures after they are taken.
- Optionally, enable or disable the Scene Optimizer.
This feature allows for customization of photo attributes such as sharpness, contrast, and brightness. For example, selecting the minimum level results in more natural-looking images, while the maximum level increases detail and sharpness, which is ideal for zoomed-in shots.
