One UI 7 “Clean” Status Bar ≠ Functional — Bring Back Bluetooth / VoLTE / Alarm

[sreeramharip]

Hi Samsung Team,

One UI 7 is great, but the new status‑bar “clean‑up” removed essential icons:

Bluetooth

VoLTE / Vo5G

Alarm

For power users, those indicators aren’t decoration; they’re live status you glance at dozens of times a day:

I keep Bluetooth earbuds on all day — I need to see the icon instantly.

I rely on VoLTE/Vo5G to confirm HD‑voice is active.

I set multiple alarms for study/work blocks; without the alarm icon I can’t confirm they’re armed.

Right now the only way is to pull down Quick Settings every time. That adds friction and defeats One UI’s goal of easy, glanceable info.

The fix is simple:

Add a “Show system icons” toggle (like in Good Lock’s QuickStar) so each user decides what matters.

Or, at minimum, restore Bluetooth & Alarm icons by default; they’re universal.

One UI has always been about choice & customization. Removing icons with no option breaks that promise.

Many users on Samsung Members (see up‑vote threads on 17 April & 22 April) are asking the same. “Cleaner look” is fine, but choice is king. Please bring back the icons or give us the toggle in the next hotfix.

Thanks for listening—looking forward to seeing this small change that makes a big everyday difference.

Swipe down notification volte signs are there..many more changes will take time to get use tu..my beta experience over month

But I need that in status for just looking whether an alarm is on or Bluetooth device connected I need to turn on my phone and pull the Quick panel doesn't make sense to Me and bit more task then simply looking them all in the status bar

Some features added some removed. Accept new changes.

Why?? As One UI 7 is full of customisation even animations why not an option for toggling an essential icons like bluetooth and alarm isn't possible even apple devices have that but Samsung as an android phone removing this all sloely for cleaner look doesn't make sense for all users giving an option is always way BETTER!!

Samsung never do that in past. Samsung always offer us to choose between the old stuffs and new stuffs.
