I hope you guys liked my the previous part of this post and wish it was very informative for you all.

So this post is about the minor changes and wishing you all find this post informative.

Enhanced lock screen legibility

The lock screen can now detect dark and light areas of the wallpaper and change text color accordingly to increase legibility. As you can see in the picture above, with a wallpaper that’s half black and half white, One UI 1.x uses white font color for all text, making it illegible in the upper half of the wallpaper. One UI 2.0 changes the text color in the upper half to black while keeping white text in the bottom half.

Tapping notification icons in lock screen no longer expands quick toggles

On One UI 2.0, if you have your lock screen set to only show notification icons, tapping any notification icon simply expands the notifications on the lock screen. 

Time and date size in notification shade reduced, more toggles visible at the same time

One UI 2.0 lets you see more of the quick toggles in the notification shade when it’s fully expanded. The big time and date display at the top center that you see on One UI 1.x has been reduced in size and shifted to the left side, and that lets you see more toggles at once. This is a slightly disappointing change, as it makes one-handed use less convenient, since you now have to reach a higher part of the screen for the first line of toggles. It does, however, reduce the number of times you’d have to scroll to see more toggles, so we guess this is a logical compromise.

Notifications in notification shade divided into sound and silent notifications

On One UI 2.0, any notification that doesn’t notify the user with a sound or by vibrating the device is grouped under the Silent notifications section in the notification shade. These are mostly persistent notifications, such as the notification you see when Do not disturb mode is enabled, and notifications for things such as screenshots and Google’s weather indication.

Sync wallpaper 


As you can see in the video. now both the homescreen and lockscreen wallpapers are synced  together for better wallpaper paper placement. you can toggle sync so people who dont want then synced can enjoy too. 

Dedicated wallpapers menu no longer takes you directly to Galaxy Store

On One UI 1.x, whether you try to change the wallpaper from the Settings app or by pinching the home screen, you are taken to the Galaxy Store, where you can either browse through wallpapers from the store or access your own wallpapers. On One UI 2.0, there is now a dedicated menu for wallpapers, where you can see multiple options and also a preview of your current home screen and lock screen wallpapers.

You can either select My wallpapers to browse through preloaded wallpapers, select Dynamic Lock screen for setting wallpapers based on particular categories (more details here), select Gallery to use an image from the Gallery app, or select Explore more wallpapers if you want to look at wallpapers in the Galaxy Store.

dialog pops up at bottom of screen




On One UI 2.0, the system dialog to an app shows up at the bottom of the screen instead of in the middle. There are also more options for allowing permissions. For example, you can either deny a permission to the app, deny and tell the phone to never ask you again for that particular permission, allow the permission, or allow the permission only when while you are using this app so it doesn’t access data in the background.

Simplified year, month, date, and time selection in Calendar app

In the Calendar app, Samsung has made it easier for you to go to a particular month or year. Instead of swiping a dial to change the month, you now get all months listed as buttons on a single page. And, when you’re trying to customize exactly how far ahead of an upcoming event you should get an alert, you can now manually select the minutes, hours, or days through a scrolling selection wheel.
