One Hand Operation+ gets One UI 7 Beta support
Over the past year, Good Lock has increasingly become an integral part of the One UI experience. One Hand Operation+, the stand-alone Good Lock app helps to control your phone or tablet more easily with just one hand. Samsung is expected to release the stable One UI 7.0 update in February 2025. Ahead of this, Samsung is starting to update Good Lock apps with One UI 7 support. Now, One Hand Operation+ gets a new update, which adds support for One UI 7 beta.
Samsung has released a new update for the One Hand Operation+ app, which adds support for One UI 7 beta, Samsung’s latest software version based on Android 15. One Hand Operation+, the Good Lock app that is available more widely via the Galaxy Store, is getting a new update to version 7.3.19.0. It is available for Galaxy users who are testing the One UI 7 beta, and the update is around 8.16MB in size.
Along with One UI 7 support, Samsung has enhanced the overall performance and functionality of the One Hand Operation+ app to enhance user experience further. This update also supports the On/Off function through the Routine function, which helps to turn on or off specific features automatically, depending on the time or condition.
Moreover, this update also brings support for dual messenger execution, so you can now launch apps in dual mode directly from the Quick Launcher.
What’s New
- Supports OneUI7 beta. - Supports On/Off function through the Routine function. - Supports dual messenger execution. (Start app/Quick launcher ...) - Bug fixes and stability improvements.
Users can install the latest update via Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates or from the Good Lock app itself. Also, they can download it directly from the Galaxy Store app link mentioned here.
Needless to say, One Hand Operation+ version 7.3.19.0 is ready for the upcoming One UI 7 update, and we’re thinking many more Good Lock modules and stand-alone apps will follow suit and start getting support for the next big Android 15 update.
Now, the One UI 7 Beta update is open for the Galaxy S24 series in select countries and the company might not expand this beta program to older flagship phones.
More on Good Lock
Samsung Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G are well-loved smartphones in the Galaxy S series that have now shifted from a monthly to a quarterly update plan. This means that Galaxy users of these Galaxy flagship devices will now receive software updates every three months instead of every month.
The Korean tech giant recently announced its revised update schedule for its Galaxy devices, with the February 2026 security patch, and the Galaxy S22 series has been placed in the quarterly update category.
The Galaxy S22 still performs very well, and with the latest Galaxy AI features recently added via the One UI 8 update, it remains up-to-date. Furthermore, it will receive One UI 8.5 later this year, which will likely be the final One UI upgrade for the S22.
How many more updates will the Galaxy S22 get?
If you need a reminder, your Galaxy S22 series is eligible for Samsung’s four-year Android upgrade policy and will get four major OS upgrades. These phones launched with Android 12 and One UI 4.1 and have already received Android 16, along with their respective One UI updates.
Coming to the topic, although the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G 5G will continue to function properly, the change in the quarterly update schedule means that users will not receive the latest features and security enhancements as quickly as before.
If you own a Galaxy S22 series phone and are considering an upgrade, you might want to check out newer Samsung models like the Galaxy S26 series. These devices will launch later this month with new features in One UI 8.1, ensuring you stay up to date with the latest technology.
Samsung’s latest Fan Edition tablets, the Galaxy Tab S10 FE and the Galaxy Tab S10 FE+, are happy as they receive the latest January 2026 security update. Notably, the firmware contains the newest safety improvements that will improve the tablet’s current health for a reliable experience.
According to the inputs, the Galaxy Tab S10 FE series tablet with model numbers SM-X520, SM-X526N, SM-X620, and SM-X626N is receiving the latest patch via the One UI versions X520XXS6BZA3, X526NKOS6BZA4, X620XXS6BZA3, and X626NKOS6BZA3, and a software package of 500MB. Though the firmware doesn’t weigh much, we suggest using a stable Wi-Fi connection for installation.
This update doesn’t add any significant new features to the device, aside from the January 2026 security patch. However, you can expect some underlying performance optimizations and fixes for glitches that could have negatively impacted the user experience.
It’s important to note that this update will not harm your personal data. However, it’s always a good idea to back up your data beforehand. Also, the update package will be automatically deleted after the installation is complete.
Samsung’s January 2026 security patch addresses 55 security vulnerabilities. Google helped fix one critical vulnerability and 20 high-risk issues found in Android. Samsung also added 30 additional security fixes specifically for Galaxy phones. These fixes address both critical and medium-level risks.
The Samsung Galaxy S26 series has started emerging in the leaks, and the latest one has shed light on the camera button of the upcoming 2026 flagship.
As mentioned by Android Authority, a former employee at a Samsung supplier revealed on LinkedIn that they contributed to an initiative developing a new camera button with swipe gesture functionality for the Samsung Galaxy S26.
This report states that Samsung is working on an Apple-style Camera Control button for the upcoming Galaxy S26 series. An Apple-style Camera Control button on iPhone models lets you quickly open your iPhone camera and access common camera settings.
We can now say that the Galaxy S26 series will be the first Samsung phones in years to feature a dedicated camera button.
For your information, the last Samsung phone with a dedicated camera button was probably the Galaxy K Zoom from 2014, which was essentially an Android-powered digital camera that could also make calls.
On the other hand, Samsung has not yet officially confirmed the Galaxy S26 lineup. However, according to reports, the company may unveil the Galaxy S26 series at a Samsung Unpacked event in February 2026. This upcoming series could be available in early March. Stay tuned for more information.
