Samsung's One UI 8 update is set to introduce improved features to the Now Bar on Galaxy screens. The Now Bar will now display more information on the lock screen, allowing users to access important details without unlocking their device. One notable upgrade is the ability to view ongoing phone calls directly on the Now Bar, showing caller information and call duration at a glance.
Additionally, the Now Bar will also indicate if the phone is in "Do Not Disturb" mode, providing users with quick access to their current status. For users of Samsung foldable phones like the Galaxy Z Flip, the Now Bar will offer a consistent experience on both the main and cover screens.
These enhancements signify Samsung's commitment to providing a convenient and user-friendly experience for Galaxy device users. The article also discusses the upcoming release of Android 16 and the likelihood of a beta version of One UI 8 being available soon.
