Samsung started releasing the One UI 7 stable update for the Galaxy Tab S10 series and the Galaxy Tab S9 series in several countries. This update brings a fresh new look and new features. However, before you upgrade to One UI 7, there are a few important precautions you need to take to avoid any problems with your tablet’s home screen.
Samsung has shared some precautions for users who plan to upgrade their tablet to One UI 7, especially if you use a certain home screen setup. In the recent community post, the Good Lock moderator has shared some tips for tablet users eligible for the One UI 7 update.
Through precautions, Samsung aims to prevent issues with home screen arrangements after upgrading. If both of the following conditions apply to your setup, it’s essential to make adjustments before proceeding with the update.
1) Home Screen Arrangement: If you use the ‘Home Up – Home Screen Arrangement’ feature, try changing your home screen to a vertical layout (for example, a 5×7 grid) rather than a horizontal one.
2) Widgets Using Full Vertical Space: If you have widgets that take up the full vertical space on your home screen (like a 3×7 widget), you will need to make changes.
After upgrading to One UI 7, these options might cause problems with the Home screen. To avoid them, you need to make a small change before updating. There are two options you can follow:
- Change the home screen layout in One UI 6. For example, switch from a 5×7 grid to a 7×5 layout to make the screen more horizontally focused.
- Remove any widgets that fill the vertical space completely.
By following these steps, you’ll minimize the risk of encountering home screen issues after the update. Samsung warns that if these precautions aren’t followed, users may experience continued issues with their home screen layout after upgrading to One UI 7.
So, if you are planning to upgrade, make the necessary adjustments to ensure a smooth experience with One UI 7.
