The Android 14 update is too away from Galaxy devices, while Samsung just confirmed that the development of One UI 6 and new Good Lock features is underway. Through a community post today, Good Lock’s manager revealed this info, which talks about the next One UI version months ahead.

Ahead of its debut, the company’s moderator announced that they are working hard to share the news of the Good Lock team through Good Lock News in Terrace/Good Lock Diary/Working Good Lock. And notably, there were a lot of people who especially enjoyed the diary.
In addition to revealing One UI 6 progress, Samsung announced annual Good Lock event.
One UI 6 Good Lock
As Samsung teased the One UI 6 and Good Lock’s news together, we expect the customization suite may also get an early launch. Notably, most of the Good Lock plugins will stop working following the Beta software installation, which requires major code changes to resume operation.
The company may introduce One UI 6 Beta next month, starting with the Galaxy S23 series. Good Lock will not be compatible with the Android 14 OS due to which, some plugins and stops will no longer remain accessible. Therefore, you will have to wait until stable software, followed by major app updates.
