0:01
Guru here and today we're talking a
0:03
little bit about the indicator icons up
0:05
here in your quick settings on 1 UI 7.0
0:09
now a lot of people have been asking me
0:11
in the comments questions about this
0:12
because they've been noticing that some
0:14
of their icons are missing including
0:17
potentially the battery icon their
0:19
Bluetooth icon their alarm icons and
0:22
we've kind of pinpointed why that is you
0:24
can fix the battery icon issue but the
0:27
other ones not so much and we've reached
0:29
Samsung for official comment i'm going
0:31

comment description if you're interested
1:08
in any of these new upcoming phones all
1:11
right so let's go ahead and talk about
1:12
the first one and that is the battery
1:14
icon being hidden so if you use the good
1:16
lock module quick and we wrote this up
1:18
like I said bookmark the site because we
1:20
always cover things in written form
1:21
usually when it's a breaking news piece
1:22
first uh what happened is a lot of
1:24
people noticed after they installed 1
1:25
UI7 when it started rolling out last
1:27
week that their battery icon was missing
1:29
and the reason is because Quickstar has
1:32
the option to hide your battery icon if
1:34
you'd used that in the past 1 UI7
1:37
integrates the battery percentage as
1:39
well as the battery icon and this is
1:41
something that the Quickstar mods
1:43
actually commented on an official post
1:46
over on the forums so it says here to
1:49
resolve the issue follow the steps below
1:50
go to log quickar visibility of
1:52
indicator icon and find turn on battery
1:54
so if you go into good lock find quickar
1:58
oops and of course classic I tapped good
2:01
guardians instead of good lock find
2:03
quickstar inside good lock visibility of
2:06
indator icons if your battery icon is
2:08
toggled off just turn it on and it
2:11
should reappear so this is mainly only
2:13
something that affects people who had
2:15
used quickar to remove the battery icon
2:18
1ui6.1 this issue can remove the battery
2:21
icon and the percentage and you won't be
2:23
able to see anything in 1 UI 7.0 because
2:25
you can see how they're integrated here
2:28
that's the first issue that people have
2:30
noticed that's not really a big problem
2:31
it's one that you can solve pretty
2:33
easily now when we posted about this
2:35
quite a few of you guys hit me up in an
2:38
additional comments threads here on
2:40
YouTube and also over on X saying that
2:43
in addition to this issue you guys had
2:46
noticed that some of your other icons
2:48
were missing up here from the home
2:51
screen view in the quick settings and so
2:53
we looked into this and it turns out
2:55
that yes the Bluetooth icon the alarm
2:57
set icon and many of the other ones were
3:00
missing and in fact not a bug samsung
3:03
actually confirmed this officially in a
3:06
statement the moderator said via the
3:08
members forum that Samsung is
3:09
streamlining the look and appearance of
3:11
this and that is an intentional decision
3:14
so here this is from the Korean members
3:16
forum and it says right here they do not
3:19
appear tried rebooting quick start on
3:21
and off and eventually the moderator
3:23
responded and said first of all we
3:24
apologize for any inconvenience one UI7
3:26
aims for a simple and refined design
3:28
focus on the essence when using an app
3:30
we've considered leaving only the
3:32
information that needs to be checked on
3:33
the status bar and opening the
3:35
notification panel or quick settings
3:36
window to check Bluetooth icon alarm
3:39
icon etc at the moment when it needs to
3:41
be checked this allowed us to focus on
3:43
more important information we'll reflect
3:45
your opinions and think about finding a
3:48
better way so what they're saying is
3:50
when you're in an app like I am in
3:52
Chrome right now you don't see the
3:54
Bluetooth icon but if you swipe down to
3:56
the quick settings you'll see Bluetooth
3:57
you notice NFC is also visible when you
3:59
swipe down in addition to that alarm set
4:02
icon that I was talking about before so
4:05
this is in fact not a bug samsung
4:07
doesn't really plan to necessarily fix
4:10
this right away um they haven't
4:12
completely disappeared like I said you
4:14
can swipe down and view them uh it is a
4:16
nice way to declutter the screen we kind
4:18
of like the look not everyone's going to
4:20
like this it would be nice to restore
4:21
this via Quickstar but right now you
4:25
can't do that so if you go back into
4:27
good lock and you go to quickstar you'll
4:30
notice that under system icons you can
4:32
see I have all these various icons
4:34
checked so Bluetooth is checked you know
4:36
NFC is checked all these icons are
4:39
checked the alarm icon is checked but
4:41
they still don't show here so even if
4:42
you toggle this on and off I tried this
4:45
this doesn't it just it makes a little
4:47
like a little blip but it doesn't
4:49
actually change anything so right now
4:51
there is no option to restore these with
4:53
quickar to the default view you're going
4:55
to have to swipe down to get in there
4:57
and take a look i certainly understand
4:59
why they did it but I know a lot of you
5:00
guys aren't going to like it i would
5:02
urge you to contact Samsung especially
5:04
Good Lock Support and Quickstar to ask
5:06
them to make this a separate option
5:08
inside Quickstar which I think would
5:10
benefit all Samsung users cuz it never
5:12
hurts to have more choice anyway hope
5:15
you guys enjoyed the video hope this
5:16
clarifies some things for some of you
5:17
guys out there the questions you guys
5:18
