  3. One UI 9.0 Changelogs [Beta, Galaxy S25]

    Samsung has recently opened the beta program for One UI 9.0 earlier today for the Galaxy S25 users in eligible countries. This version of One UI 9.0 is a rather minor version, with one major feature focusing on changes related to the Quick Panel, and an upgrade to Android 17 to be released this year with Gemini Intelligence.

    The beta program is now running for the Galaxy S25. Here are the changes that were made to the software (source):

    More customizable quick panel

    You can now rearrange and customize the controls in your quick panel even more than before. You can change the size of the brightness and volume sliders as well as the media player. You can also separate the sound mode button from the volume slider.

    Samsung DeX enhancements

    It’s easier to move an app window from one desktop to another using the menu at the top of the window. Desktop previews are now available at the top of the Recents screen, making it easier to switch with a single tap.

    Do more with notes

    The new Tape feature in Samsung Notes lets you cover parts of your note with tape and reveal them when needed. A variety of new pen styles have also been added, giving you even more options for writing and drawing.

    Location access transparency

    Stay on top of your location privacy. A blue indicator will appear at the top of the screen when an app accesses your location. Tap the indicator in the quick panel to see which app it is.

    Discover new Accessibility features

    Check the What’s new menu in Accessibility settings to learn about and try the latest Accessibility features for your Galaxy.

    Text spotlight for easier reading

    Need a closer look? Tap any text on the screen to show it enlarged and highlighted in its own window. You can also customize the font size, colors, and other settings to match your preferences.

    Physical keyboard shortcuts

    Use shortcuts on your physical keyboard to access the Accessibility settings you need without touching the screen.

    Mouse keys enhancements

    New options are available when using your keyboard for mouse interactions including speed and acceleration control. You can also use the keyboard’s number pad to point and click.

    Replace swipe with single tap

    The Replace swipe with single tap option is now located on the Dexterity and interaction menu instead of the Assistant menu for easier access.

    Select to speak

    Get quick audio readouts without turning on full TalkBack. With the new Select to speak feature, you can select an item on your screen, like text or an image, and hear it read or described out loud.

    Improved TalkBack updates

    Through continuous collaboration, Samsung and Google’s TalkBack features have been unified. TalkBack updates can now be applied with a simple app update from the Play Store.

    To join the Beta Program, you must have the latest version of Samsung Members installed. You can get the latest version through either the Galaxy Store or the Play Store. Once done, you should be able to join the program if you have an eligible device.

    You can find instructions on how to join the beta program here.
