What's New
One UI 4.1 Upgrade (Android 12)
One UI 4.1 brings you the latest features for your Galaxy devices. More intuitive, more fun, more secure, and easier than ever.
Check out the changes below.
Gallery
Do more with your memories. Gallery brings enhanced features for remastering and organizing your pictures and videos, and sharing is now easier than ever.
Add portrait effects
You can now add background blur to any picture with a person in view.
Convert unnecessary motion photos to still images
Save storage space by converting motion photos to still images. Gallery will suggest pictures where motion isn't necessary, such as documents.
Share albums as links
No need to invite people to shared albums individually anymore. Just create a link that can be shared with anyone, even if they don't have a Samsung account or Galaxy device.
All your invitations together
Easily accept invitations to shared albums, even if you miss the notifications. Invitations that you haven't responded to yet will appear at the top of your shared album list.
Samsung Health
Get deeper insights into your health and enhanced exercise tracking in the latest version of Samsung Health.
Get insights about your body composition
Set targets for your weight, body fat percentage, and skeletal muscle mass. You'll get tips for reaching your goals.
Build better sleep habits
Track your sleep and get coaching based on your sleep patterns.
Enhanced exercise tracking
On your Galaxy Watch4, you can set interval training targets before you start running or cycling. You'll get a report on your phone when you're finished. Your watch can also give information about sweat loss when you run and heart rate recovery for aerobic workouts.
Smart Switch
Transfer contacts, photos, messages, and settings from an old phone or tablet to your new Galaxy. One UI 4.1 lets you transfer more than ever.
More transfer options
You’ll get 3 options when transferring content to your new Galaxy. You can choose to transfer everything, transfer just your accounts, contacts, calls, and messages, or go Custom to choose exactly what you want to transfer.
Sharing
One UI 4.1 gives you even more ways to share with others.
Share your WLAN network
Use S Share to share your current WLAN network with someone else. The person you share with will be able to connect automatically without entering the password.
Include editing history when you share pictures and videos
When you share pictures and videos with Quick Share, you can include the complete editing history so the receiver can see what's changed or revert back to the original.
More features and improvements
Color palette
Customize your phone with unique colors based on your wallpaper. Your custom color palette now appears in more apps.
Add emojis to your calendar
In addition to stickers, you can now add emojis to a date on your calendar to express your feelings.
Take quick notes while you browse
Keep track of your sources with new clipping options for Samsung Notes. You can include content from Samsung Internet or Gallery when you create a note using the quick panel or the Tasks edge panel.
Customize your sound balance
In Accessibility settings, you can adjust the left/right sound balance for connected devices, such as speakers or headphones, separately from the sound balance for your phone speakers. This allows you to get the perfect balance out of your headphones without affecting how your ringtone and speakers sound.
New actions for Bixby Routines
You can now create routines that turn on advanced settings like Protect battery.
Customize your virtual memory
Choose the size of your phone's virtual memory with RAM Plus in Device care. Go with more to boost performance or less to save storage space.
Some apps will need to be updated separately after the One UI 4.1 update.
