what's up YouTube jeff back from Sammy
0:01
Guru here and today another very
0:02
exciting Samsung video for you guys
0:04
today I have some good news a couple of
0:05
you guys have been asking me when is the
0:08
HomeUp do-it-yourself home screen coming
0:10
to landscape mode and Samsung has
0:13
commented on this it is coming with 1
0:15
UI8 stable could be shortly after 1 UI
0:18
stable rolls out of course because that
0:19
usually happens with the good lock
0:20
update but it is at least coming and
0:22
they're working on it so we're going to
0:23
talk about that today and also remind
0:26
you guys of what DIY DIY home is if you
0:28
haven't used it it's pretty cool
0:30
something introduced with Good Lock and
0:31
One UI7 that a lot of people have really
0:33
found fun to play around with it's
0:35
something that no other phone has aside
0:37
from Galaxy phones anyway before we get

than other websites that still give back
1:31
to our readers and viewers so check that
1:33
in the pin comment description if you're
1:34
interested in that okay so let's go
1:36
ahead and talk about this 1 UI 8's going
1:38
to add landscape mode which is missing
1:40
so if you don't know much about this um
1:43
in HomeUp which was added with 1 UI7 to
1:47
Good Lock the new version of HomeUp that
1:49
allows you to you know customize not
1:51
only your gestures but also has this
1:52
crazy thing inside the home screen
1:54
settings called DIY home screen which is
1:56
still in beta if you turn this on you
2:00
can do crazy things with your home
2:01
screen like this you can place icons
2:03
anywhere you want you can make your
2:04
folders any angle you want you can have
2:06
stuff overlap put stickers on here it's
2:09
crazy basically once you enable the
2:11
method just long press go up here to the
2:13
top says DIY home play around with
2:15
everything you can add a bunch of cool
2:16
stickers emojis text colors there's you
2:19
know it's unlimited basically it's 100%
2:22
customization like you can't get
2:23
anywhere else even on any other Android
2:25
phone and Samsung did a great job but
2:27
the one problem with this is if you have
2:30
auto rotate enabled which you guys can
2:32
see that I do in this instance um what's
2:36
going to happen is once you go into and
2:39
try to rotate the screen it doesn't work
2:42
if you have DIY home on so if you have
2:45
DIY home on basically you can't use your
2:48
home screen in landscape now this might
2:51
not be a big deal for some people
2:52
because I don't I'd have to say the
2:55
amount of times I actually utilize my
2:56
home screen in landscape mode is almost
2:59
never now obviously I rotate my phone to
3:01
landscape when I'm watching media or
3:02
playing games but that's really isn't a
3:04
problem this is just it the home screen
3:06
doesn't rotate right and if you turn off
3:09
you know of course if you turn off the
3:10
DIY home screen it goes back to your
3:12
regular home screen and if you have auto
3:14
rotate on it's going to go ahead and
3:16
rotate your home screen as you would
3:18
expect it takes a little second to kick
3:21
in and of course you also need to go in
3:23
here i forgot all about that you got to
3:26
go in here and turn on rotate to
3:27
landscape mode and then it will work so
3:30
just so you can see let me go back and
3:33
illustrate my point because I didn't
3:35
realize that wasn't even turned on this
3:37
is live live TV/v video here even if you
3:40
have rotate landscape mode on with DIY
3:43
home you can see it doesn't rotate but
3:47
then if you turn it off
3:49
and you have the rotate home screen on
3:52
it rotates just fine so Samsung is going
3:55
to fix this and they commented on it in
3:57
an official post so we posted about this
4:01
they're offering precise control in
4:03
HomeUp and they commented in one of
4:06
their forum post that they would allow
4:10
people to use HomeUp DIY in landscape
4:13
mode so this is something that was
4:16
written in one of the Korean forums home
4:18
screen auto retake function doesn't work
4:20
please test it hello customer good luck
4:22
support team it only supports portrait
4:24
however please note we're currently
4:25
reviewing support for the next OS so
4:28
basically they're saying 1 UI 8 we
4:30
should expect to see landscape mode for
4:33
home for home up DIY so I'm curious if
4:36
you guys ever use your home screen
4:38
whether you know just you know in
4:41
landscape mode at all and if this would
4:43
matter to you if you want it it's it see
4:45
it's really tricky honestly i mean um
4:47
it's it's really great that Samsung's
4:49
doing this because if you think about it
4:50
you know with this crazy layout that you
4:52
have in DIY rotating that all and making
4:55
it look good no matter what your setup
4:58
is is tricky so they they're trying to
5:00
probably take some time to do this i
5:02
don't know if it's worth it depending on
5:03
how much effort it takes but I'm curious
5:05
how many of you guys what percentage of
5:06
you use your home screen in landscape
5:08
mode to get work done i use it in other
5:11
apps but not on my home screen very
5:13
often anyway make sure you guys check
