Samsung phones about to get new Google Messages with cleaner UI

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra One UI 7 Home Screen App Icons

Samsung phone users may soon receive a small but useful update in the Google Messages app. Google is working to separate the Camera and Gallery options in the Messages app to make the interface more organized.

In the latest beta version of the app, Google has made a change that separates the Camera and Gallery buttons of Google Messages. This could make the app look better and easier to use.

Earlier, when you tapped the Plus icon while chatting, you saw one option, Gallery. This would open a screen where you could take a photo with the camera and also see your recent pictures below. It was handy but sometimes confusing if you only wanted to use the camera or pick a photo.

Now, in the beta version, Google has added two separate buttons, one for Camera and one for Gallery. If you tap the Gallery button, you will only see photos and videos already on your phone. If you tap the Camera button, it opens the camera view, just like before, but also shows your recent photos below it for quick access.

This update is currently under development in the beta version of Google Messages, and it’s not yet available to everyone. However, Google hasn’t confirmed when it will be available for everyone. But if it works well, it could be rolled out to all users, including those on Samsung phones.

Even though this is a small update, it helps make the app easier to use and saves time when sharing photos or videos in chats. Samsung users who use Google Messages may soon enjoy a cleaner and simpler messaging experience. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung Good Lock modules

Samsung is planning to improve the Toast History feature within the Nice Catch Good Lock module suite with One UI 8 support. This feature helps users see a list of small pop-up messages that appear on their phones.

In the One UI 7 software, many users noticed a problem with this feature. Instead of showing the full message in the toast notification history, it only shows which app sent the toast. The actual message content is missing.

Previously, users could view the text content of toast notifications. But this functionality is not working as previously, causing inconvenience.

Notably, the Toast History feature in Nice Catch is designed to provide users with a list of all toast notifications that have appeared on their device. Toasts are small, temporary pop-up messages that apps use to deliver brief information. This is useful for checking what notifications have appeared or for fixing problems with apps.

For that, a community moderator has explained that there was a problem with getting the toast message history in One UI 7. Samsung is aware of this and says they will fix it with One UI 8 support.

The moderator mentioned that the company plans to resolve the Toast History issue and reintroduce full toast content visibility with the support of One UI 8 for Nice Catch.

Users can expect a more reliable and detailed Toast History function in One UI 8. The company is working to restore the ability to view the full text of each toast notification. It is expected that Samsung will soon make the Nice Catch module compatible with One UI 8.

At the moment, the latest foldable users are enjoying the One UI 8 features. However, Galaxy S25 series users are also testing them, but through the One UI Beta Program. The company will soon start the One UI 8 rollout for older Galaxy devices. Stay tuned.
