Samsung revamps One Hand Operation + in One UI 8 with Smart Gestures, Custom Handles

Published

By

Samsung drops a new One Hand Operation + plugin update for the Galaxy S25 series running One UI 8. The new release adds two handy new features, aimed at simplifying in-app controls and even smarter gestures.

The new One Hand Operation + update is currently available for Galaxy S25 phones running One UI 8, as spotted by Theordysm. Samsung seems to be testing new app features apart from the One UI software on Galaxy devices.

Custom Handles

Good Lock’s One Hand Operation + has added dedicated in-app buttons for easier handle customization. Now, you get separate buttons for “Add Handles” and “Delete Handles” – both aimed at making tweaks easier than ever.

This move aligns with a previous Good Lock update, which categorized plugins according to their respective functionality. Now with Add and Delete buttons, it’s easier to set and control custom handles on your Galaxy devices.

Smart Gestures

System back gesture is a newly added toggle within Samsung’s new One Hand Operation + app version. When enabled, the plugin will allow you to use the system back navigation gesture outside the handle area.

This addition hints at a harmonious experience with OS-gestures and plugin gestures. One UI 8 focuses on refining the entire functionality, and apps are getting updated in a similar direction, giving us a glimpse of compelling experiences.

Note that sideloading the APK could activate some upcoming features on One UI 7 devices too. As the testing is still underway on a Beta software, you may face common issues like crashing or unusual interruptions while using it.

Samsung is swiftly working in multiple directions before unveiling the One UI 8 next month. Just a few hours back, Google released the Stable Android 16 update and teased some new features that will land on Galaxies with One UI 8.

Samsung One UI 7 Home Up app features

With One UI 7, Samsung added several cool new features to its Good Lock apps. One of the most impressive features is DIY Home, which is part of the Home Up app. Now, Samsung is planning to enhance the DIY Home in the upcoming One UI 8 update.

The DIY Home Screen feature gives you the freedom to design your phone’s home screen exactly how you want it. You can add apps, widgets, and folders, then move them around and change their sizes to match your style.

But in One UI 7, DIY Home only works when your phone is in portrait mode. If you turn on auto-rotate for your home screen and then try to use DIY Home, it won’t work because DIY Home doesn’t support landscape mode yet.

To address this, Samsung is currently reviewing support for DIY Home landscape mode for the next OS update. This means you might be able to enjoy DIY Home functions in landscape mode in One UI 8.

A Samsung community moderator has recently confirmed this while replying to users about the auto-rotate problem in DIY Home. So, it looks like Samsung plans to bring DIY Home Landscape mode support with One UI 8.

Aside from this, Samsung added two new features to DIY Home for One UI 7 users. These are Animate Overlapping Items and Align Guide Line. These features help you make your home screen look even better and easier to organize.

More new features are expected to come soon, so keep an eye out for updates and announcements from Samsung.

Samsung Home Up One UI 7 support
