One UI1.0 for Samsung Devices

In the past year, Samsung phones such as the Galaxy S10 and Fold, went through a major transformation software-wide just like they did on hardware. The reason for this is that, as indicated on the online tech site, CNET, because "Samsung redesigned mobile interface, which layered on top of the Android OS of Google," therefore, it is more intuitive and easier to use. A couple of months ago, Samsung unveiled its software's next version called One UI 2.0. This development leads to better reachability, dark mode for both the home and lock screen, moving icons, and smaller notification windows to its tablets, wearable devices, folding phones, and Samsung Galaxy phones.

It is the main objective of One UI 2 to minimize or lessen intermittence, not to mention, help its users to stay concentrated on what he is doing. Say you have a Samsung device, specifically the Galaxy S10 that runs on One UI 2, and you are playing a game or watching on full-screen video or receiving a call, the notification window shown is smaller than it is was with the One UI. More so, rather than having the contact's photo, phone number and caller's name, and the words 'answer' and 'decline' on screen, with the One UI 2, it just shows the person calling, and a green phone icon for the 'answer' option, and a red phone icon, for the 'decline' option.

Improved Navigation

Aside from the improved interface brought by One UI 2, Samsung has enhanced as well, navigation with the amount of reaching out to handle your phone, and with the use of your fingers. Before these developments and improvements, when a user opened an app on his Samsung mobile phone via the One UI, the folder centered itself on the screen. This could be a challenge then, to reach the folder's top part using the thumb. Whereas in One UI 2, the folder is opening to the phone's lower-half part. This then means it is simpler and more convenient to navigate the mobile phone using just one hand.

The app icons' colors n UI 2 are quite more vibrant and saturated. In addition, these said icons get a feature, as well, which is called the "vivid moving icons." For instance, if the user is downloading an update of the system for his mobile phone, the gears found in the Settings icon spins. Found in the "Smart Things app," the icons are moving to display which appliances are being used. Say, a vacuum robot cleaner is being operated to clean the floor, the vacuum icon then is shown moving back and forth on the screen.
