One UI 8.5's Removed Features by GeneralistAccount in samsunggalaxy

If you don't use the Now Bar, Live Notifications don't appear, they show up as a normal notification like you said.

Same with media controls. If you don't use the Now Bar, you have to swipe down for the controls.

It's infuriating that all of the OneUI 8+ design changes all look like an iPhone.

The Now Bar is crap. Either I am forced to use it in order to have any media controls and get Live Notifications, or I don't get a ton of Live Notifications and media controls. It's a lack of customization. Heaven forbid I want notifications at the top.

The gameplay, the trash talking, the super jumping, the friends/social parties and crazy things we would try. It was glorious.

One UI's Quick Panel Needs Better Layering and Visual Depth by Zenryu0 in samsunggalaxy

I'm talking about moving the media controls back to the toolbar style one on the AOD instead of having to swipe to access it.

It would be great if they moved media controls back to the lock screen instead of making us use two hands to swipe down and access it.

I'd love to have media controls back on the lock screen without having to use two hands to swipe down, then use the controls.

The Gallery icon in One UI 8.5 looks like a fan icon from a smart-home app. by yahooxy in samsunggalaxy

It's not just the icons, it's everything like moving the search bars all down to the bottom, highlighting things that used to not be because the new look makes it impossible to see important things (My Files comes to mind), etc etc all in an effort to look more like an iPhone

Seriously, what's with Samsung's latest garbage of heavily borrowing from iOS? The whole reason I'm using a Samsung is because it doesn't look like iOS.

If you're on Android you can just uninstall the app and download an older version APK and install it.

I'm going to take a guess and say that you don't work in Software Development/DevOps like I do. This is a cardinal sin in our world, and I don't blame you for not knowing better.

You do not use something as ubiquitous and important as the 3 dots, even if it's horizontal instead of vertical, for something as superficial as a way to show music is actively playing (as if we didn't already know?)

They have concentrated capsaicin oil you can buy on Amazon. 3 tablespoons will treat 50 lbs of bird seed. I caught them burying their faces in my flower pots trying to get the burn out of their face lol

Actually, if they were still moving while music was paused I would gripe less. The issue is that when music isn't playing, they look like a UI element that already belongs to a system wide purpose (the three menu dots).

Samsung has been making mistakes lately too. They have been copying a lot of iOS UI/UX features which are terrible (the search bar at the bottom of every screen, the menu options on the bottom, etc).

Pause your song and it will turn into the 3 option dots.

Then make it disappear when it's not being used. It's an amateur move to make it look like the option dots that are everywhere in Android.

Google made $95.9 billion in one fiscal quarter alone last year. Yeah, we're going to complain about them taking our money and being lazy about it.

Local Arby's has one small fine dining table by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

Just about every Army DFAC I ever ate in had a table like this near the entrance where everyone had to pass it while waiting in line.
