One UI 5.0/ One UI 5.1 is also based on the Android 13 OS. It officially brings the latest OS to Galaxy devices, however, Custom ROMs usually offer features from stock Android. As your Galaxy phone already lost the eligibility to get Android 13, using custom ROM, you can experience the brand new features.

What’s new with Samsung Galaxy Android 13

Samsung introduced the Android 12-based One UI 4 software with no radical design and UI changes. However, Google did just the opposite as the Android 12 features the biggest user interface changes in history.

Similarly, Samsung is not bringing changes to the overall look of the One UI with the Android 13 upgrade for Galaxy devices. As speculated, the Stable version of the One UI doesn’t look like Google’s Android 13 OS.

The Public One UI 5 version, based on Android 13, brings more meaningful design upgrades, improvements to the existing features/functions, new add-ons, better 3rd party app performance, and a lot more.

Google revealed several new features of the Android 13 operating system, and all of them will surely reflect with the One UI 5 upgrade for the Galaxy devices, at the same time, we don’t have any info regarding One UI 5 features.

The Galaxy S22 lineup started getting Stable One UI 5.0 update in late October. Nevertheless, the company amazingly achieved the fastest Android OS deployment in its history. Within 2022, Samsung managed to nearly finish the One UI 5.0 rollout for eligible Galaxy devices.

We’ve gathered which new features One UI 5.0 update brings:

Samsung Messages

With the One UI 4.1, Samsung enabled the capability of creating emoji pairs using the One UI exclusive Keyboard application. The new One UI 5.0 has the ability so you can delete unwanted emoji pairs with the new delete function.

• Besides “Create” button, One UI 5.0 added a new Delete icon inside the menu that can be accessed by tapping the “+” button.

Lock Screen

Adding extra fun to customization, the One UI 5.0 now allows users to modify the lock screen by using “touch and hold to edit” feature. It lets you easily edit and customize your lock screen by simply touching and holding onto the screen.

• Touch and hold on the lock screen to enter lock screen edit mode.
• A “Touch and hold edit” option has also been added to the lock screen settings menu.

Samsung’s Android 13 skin lets you easily change your lock screen wallpaper directly on the lock screen. The newly crafted Wallpapers library has various options including Wallpaper services such as Dynamic lock screen.

How to use Dynamic Lock Screen

Dynamic lock screen is an amazing function that is available on Galaxy smartphones inside the Wallpaper services section. You can access this mode by following the steps written below.

• Select Wallpaper in the “Touch and hold edit” mode on your lock screen > Scroll down to “Wallpaper services” > Select the arrow on the right > Select Dynamic Lock screen > select Apply.

How to customize lock screen clock style

The “Touch and hold edit” mode is not just limited to the above-mentioned two functions. It also allows you to change and customize your lock screen clock style and colors with easy visual modification tools.

More “how-to” for lock screen

Galaxy users can now edit and customize the notification settings by selecting the preview notifications. There are two options for lock screen Notifications including Icons only and Details, which show a preview as well so you can apply the best settings.

Samsung’s software has another lockscreen feature that makes it possible to open two apps (not any!) without unlocking the smartphone. You can swipe left or right to open apps directly from the lock screen interface.

The One UI 5.0 now allows users to change the apps for both “Left shortcut” and “Left shortcut.” You can assign two of the five available options that can be accessed without unlocking the phone including:

1. Calculator
2. Camera
3. Do not disturb
4. Flashlight
5. Voice recorder

Notification Settings

Inside the system Settings, the Notifications section is now reorganized so you can find related menus on a single-screen interface.

Go to Notifications in the settings menu > select App notifications to view the apps list and easily toggle each app’s notification on and off.

You can easily add contact exceptions in the Do not disturb notification settings. Go to “Do not disturb” under notification settings > select Calls and messages > Select + to add contacts to the exceptions list.

Moreover, it’s now easier to add contact exceptions in the Do not disturb notification settings. Just head towards “Do not disturb” under notification settings > select Calls and messages > Select + to add contacts to the exceptions list.

In addition, you can also find DND exceptions for the app under Do not disturb > App notifications, by just simply selecting + to add apps to the exceptions list.

1. Create an album
2. Create a group, and share an album
3. Auto update an album.

Furthermore, a new “View all” option has been added at the top for you to quickly access all your albums. And you will be recommended if there are people groups analyzed as the same person to integrate them into one group.

Modes and Routines

Samsung’s Android 13-based One UI 5.0 software system has now renamed the Bixby Routines to Modes and Routines – two different sections for user convenience.

You can utilize different modes to help you focus on your current tasks under the Modes tab, while the 2nd “Routines” tab allows you to add new routines or discover and manage existing routines.

Security and Privacy

Compared to the One UI 4.1, the One UI 5.0 update brings a major change to the security and privacy settings. With the latest upgrade, “Biometrics and security” and “Privacy” have been combined into one menu named “Security and privacy”.

Connected Devices

Connected Devices is a new menu that joined other system Settings with the One UI 5.0 update. The company grouped all Connections functions that are now available at a dedicated place called Connected Devices.

Safety and emergency

Safety and Emergency is another important part of a smartphone’s system Settings. In the One UI 5.0, you will notice an updated medical information icon while pressing on the lock screen to make an emergency call.

Widgets – Home screen

Samsung One UI 5.0’s Stackable Widget feature allows you to create stack widgets by dragging and dropping option or by long pressing one of the widgets you wish to edit. Once created, you can long press to edit the widget or remove it.

Wallpapers – Home screen

One UI 5.0-based Wallpapers function’s preview screen gives you the option to edit your lock screen and home screen wallpapers. Go to Wallpaper > Select the wallpaper you want > A preview screen will pop up > select Preview to edit the wallpaper.

Freebie: Download Samsung One UI 5.0 Wallpapers

In case you select an image from the Samsung Gallery app to use as wallpaper, you can also apply filters to the wallpaper by selecting the “Filter” option at the bottom of the screen.

Color Palette – Dynamic Theming

Aside from this, the new Color Palette feature now offers you a number of palettes inspired by the Wallpaper of your home screen and lock screen. If you don’t want to go ahead with Material You Palettes, there are more ways added with One UI 5.0.

Basic Colors – Color Palette

The Samsung Android 13 update brings a new Basic colors tab in the Color Palette section of Wallpapers settings. You have to access the Color palette under “Wallpaper and style” to view these options.

You can also turn the Color Palette on/off by using the toggle button. Select different wallpaper palettes by choosing Wallpaper colors and Basic colors to view additional color modes.

Weather Widget

One UI 5.0 now incorporates your movement patterns, such as driving, biking, running, or walking in order to provide you with more frequent weather updates. When the “Auto refresh on the go” is enabled, you can’t manually refresh the weather as the button won’t be shown on the weather widget.

Go to Weather widget > select it > select the settings menu on the top > turn on “Auto refresh on the go”. If you are using it the first time, you will receive a pop-up notification to get your permission, select Allow to continue or Don’t allow to dismiss this action.

The post [Official] Samsung will update these Galaxy devices to Android 13 One UI 5.0 appeared first on Sammy Fans.

The Korean company launched the Galaxy S20 FE 5G smartphones last year. The device comes with a great set of specifications and software capabilities. But got overshadowed because of the Galaxy S21 phones and didn’t get as much popularity as it should have.

Follow Sammy Fans on Google News

The device was launched with the Android 11 OS and received its first major software update as Android 12 in late 2021. The Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G is now eligible for its second major software upgrade which is Android 13 but the company is taking more time than usual to deliver the update.

Join SammyFans on Telegram

Meanwhile, the company has already released this update for all its flagship Galaxy devices and other Galaxy S20 models – S20, S20+, S20 Ultra, as well as S20 FE LTE. Not only this but Samsung’s Android 13 has also reached a bunch of mid-range and budget smartphones, such as Galaxy A22 and Galaxy A13.

Millions of Galaxy device users got the latest iteration of Android software ahead of the planned schedule. Then where is this update for the Galaxy S20 FE 5G? We can not understand why the Android 13 One UI 5.0 update is being delayed for the 5G variant. Is the device taking time to adapt to the new software or is it having problems and errors?

Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G customers are eagerly waiting to use Android 13 One UI 5.0 features. We expect the company to deliver this major update to the users at least this week, which is the original schedule for the update’s release.

The post Where’s the Samsung Android 13 update for Galaxy S20 FE 5G appeared first on Sammy Fans.

In late October, Samsung initially started to roll out the stable One UI 5.0 update that relays on the Android 13 operating system. Unsurprisingly, Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra phones become the first to install it, while, all eligible flagships are upgraded within a month.

Starting November 7th, the South Korean tech giant has started to expand the major One UI 5.0 update to more Galaxy smartphones including Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, Galaxy A and M series. So far, a bunch of Galaxy smartphones and select tabs have received the Android 13 update.

Not only flagships but the update have also started releasing for mid-range smartphones. This year’s Galaxy A73, Galaxy A53, and Galaxy A33 have got a chance to install the major update ahead of flagship phones like Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3.

However, as always the update is rolling out in a staged manner, which means it is not available for all users at the time. Samsung is slowly spreading the updates to more users in different countries. As soon as it comes to your phone, it will notify you.

In any case, if you want to check out the Android 13 update manually on your Galaxy smartphone, you can visit the System Settings followed by the Software update and Download and install options.

Don’t forget to share with us whether you have received the Android 13 update on your Samsung phone or not.

Talking specifically about the Notification Panel, there are no radical changes in the design and style with the new One UI 5.0. Compared to the previous One UI 4.1, the new Samsung Android 13 skin introduces minor tweaks and significant improvements in visibility.

Let’s explore: [No Color Palette applied]

Notification Panel is one of the most used functions of smartphones as we head towards it immediately after opening the lockscreen. On Samsung, we can access the Notification Panel with a swipe-down gesture on the home screen, or by swiping down from the top area of the phone’s display.

With One UI 5.0, the Notification Panel of Galaxy smartphones keeps the same layout and design as the One UI 4.1. Starting with the digital clock, the position of top icons, date, Settings gear icon, and primary Quick Settings toggles has not changed.

The One UI 5.0 brightness slider’s design is also the same as we got with the Android 12-based One UI 4.1. We found meaningful changes in the visibility of the panel as it’s now less transparent than the earlier design in order to showcase notifications more clearly.

While the overall look and feel of the One UI 5.0’s Notification Panel match with the One UI 4.1’s, there are meaningful improvements in the per-app notification panel toggles. With One UI 5.0, the notification tab’s setting toggles got a translucent background shape with rounded corners, which enhances the visibility of buttons.

Here, the Notification Settings button takes us to the App notifications section in the system Settings so we can decide which apps’ notifications will appear in the panel.

When it’s coming?

Currently, Samsung is testing the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 software on select Galaxy flagship devices. In mid-August, Google released the Stable Android 13 update for all eligible Pixel smartphones, however, it will be available for non-Pixel phones from Samsung and others “later this year.”

Meanwhile, the Galaxy S22 series is officially confirmed to get One UI 5.0 update this month.
