Upgrading to One UI 7 could mess up your current home screen layout
Samsung's latest software release supports fewer home screen grid layouts than One UI 6.
- Updating to One UI 7 may mess up your home screen layout, as the software supports a smaller selection of grid layouts.
- While One UI 6 offers 4×5, 4×6, 5×5, and 5×6 grid layouts, One UI 7 only supports 4×6 and 5×6 grids by default.
- If you want to continue using the 4×5 or 5×5 grid layouts on One UI 7, you’ll have to rely on the Home Up Good Lock module.
Samsung’s new Galaxy S25 series devices are the first to feature the latest version of the company’s custom Android skin. Based on Android 15, One UI 7 brings several new features, including a Now Bar for the lockscreen that offers useful information at a glance, a vertical app drawer, an improved Quick Settings panel, and more.
One UI 7 also introduces some new home screen settings that aim to help you set up a more optimized layout. However, one of these changes could mess up your current home screen layout when you upgrade from One UI 6.
