Samsung users have long been familiar with the customization options available on their devices through Good Lock and other features. Now, Samsung is going to enhance Good Lock’s folder icon arrangement feature with the One UI 7 update.
Recently, an issue has surfaced regarding the resetting of folder icon arrangements when turning the Home Up feature off and on. This problem has raised concerns among users who like to organize their apps in a specific way.
A user recently reported this issue, stating that the folder icon arrangement would often reset when toggling the Home Up feature within the Good Lock app. The user expressed frustration as this led to the loss of their customized folder organization.
The Samsung community moderator addressed the issue and confirmed that the issue of folder icon arrangement resets is indeed recognized. The company assured users that an improvement is on the way. Specifically, this issue is expected to be resolved through the One UI 7.0 software update.
Samsung is actively working on the One UI 7 update, and the new One UI version will improve the folder icon arrangement reset feature of Good Lock.
The moderator also mentioned that if users are facing other issues besides the folder icon reset, they can help by sending a video or logs showing the problem. To do this, users should go to the Samsung Members app, tap the Get Help option, and choose the Send Error option after the issue occurs.
Aside from this, Samsung is going to One UI 7 Beta update soon for the Galaxy S24 series. This beta update will let Galaxy users enjoy new features ahead of an official release.
Samsung has released a new update for its Keys Cafe app, which brings it to version 1.6.01.11. This update introduces some improvements that will enhance the app’s performance and make it easier for users to customize their Samsung devices.
The fresh version 1.6.1.11 update supports One UI 6. If you’re using a Samsung device with One UI 6 or later, you’ll now have a smoother, more seamless experience when using the app. This update ensures that all the new features in One UI 6 work well with the app.
Moreover, the Samsung Keys Cafe 1.6.01.11 update fixes the theme visibility issues. Some users had previously noticed issues with how different themes were displayed in the app.
With this update, Samsung has worked to improve how themes look to ensure a visually appealing experience when switching between different themes or modes. This makes the app’s interface cleaner and more enjoyable to use.
The Keys Cafe app is useful for users who love customizing their Samsung keyboard. It lets you adjust settings, create shortcuts, and fine-tune your typing experience. This update makes those features even better to offer a smoother and more reliable experience.
You can install the latest version of the Samsung Keys Cafe through Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates or from the Good Lock app. Also, you can download the update from the third-party app link mentioned here.
Samsung has shared an update about the removal of the GIF capture feature in the One Hand Operation+ app following the One UI 6.1.1 update. Several users enjoyed the GIF capture feature as it allowed them to capture GIFs easily using gestures.
However, Samsung removed the GIF capture feature with the One UI 6.1.1 update and integrated it into Samsung’s new AI Select function. Now, a Samsung community moderator mentioned that the company could provide a GIF capture feature again.
Samsung’s One Hand Operation+ app lets users perform various tasks on their Galaxy phone with simple hand gestures. This app connects different phone functions to make it easier to control your device with just one hand. However, when a feature like GIF capture is removed, it also means the app can no longer provide it through gestures.
The moderator explained that since the GIF capture feature has been moved to the AI Select function, the app no longer has access to it. He also mentioned that the app cannot bring the feature back on its own without it being available in the phone’s terminal first.
Although the GIF capture feature is not available right now, Samsung has stated that it might return in the future if the functionality is reinstated in the terminal’s system.
Samsung apologized for any inconvenience caused by this change and promised to continue working on improving the app and the overall user experience with future updates. Users are advised to stay tuned for any updates or changes to the app’s features.
