Samsung One UI allows users to re-enable the "all apps" button

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Samsung's One UI has removed the "all apps" button from the home screen by default in favor of a swipe-up gesture to access the app drawer. However, users who prefer the button can re-enable it through the home screen settings. This change reflects a broader shift in Android's interface design, moving away from dedicated buttons towards gesture-based navigation, though Samsung still offers the option for users accustomed to the older method.
