To clarify the difference between home and main screens: home screen is the folded shut front screen, and main screen is the unfolded open inside wide screen.

So before the most recent Android update was installed, I could select from a list of options for the number of columns and rows that you could place your app icons in. Depending on the selection, it would adjust the size of the app icon accordingly. So, for example, 4x4 would hold larger sized app icons than 6x5. The infuriating part has to do with the fact the home screen is like 2"-3"x4"-6" while the main screen is 4"-6"x4"-6" or double the size of the cover screen. Before the update i could independently set the cover screen to grid size AxA, and then independently set the main screen to grid BxB. The screenshot is just where they used to be located. Iver searched thru all branches of the settings menu tree and found nothing. Fuck I hate when updates remove settings options or a user's freedom to customize shit. The worst part is I dont think I can roll back updates on android either🀬🀬🀬

If you download Good Lock (https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.android.goodlock), you can still modify this through the Home Up add-on, along with many other tweaks and settings. I've almost managed to restore it to how it was before One UI 7 using these tools.

While what Samsung did isn't ideal, at least there's a solution for some of the changes at least.

It's a great tool by Samsung, but not promoted as much as it should πŸ™‚

(edit: screenshot for reference)

Why did they remove it as base feature and added it back as add-on?!?! WTF

[–] y0din@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

It's always been there in the add-on, why they removed it as a base feature beats me, but I feel they are going down the "Google route", remove all that works and replace it with what you never asked for.

Google used to hold a lot of nice services and features, including Chromecast. Why kill something that worked so well for so many people?

Take a look at https://killedbygoogle.com/ if you have some spare time.

What the user wants does not matter anymore, seems to be a default all over these days.. πŸ™„

[–] Cris16228@lemmy.today 1 points 6 days ago

I know about that site. Its sad to see what they killed, companies care only about πŸ’΅ and fuck you

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago

OP why aren't you using Good Lock?

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I haven't been excited about an android upgrade in like? I don't even know 8 years? It's all just shittery and more locked down shit.

[–] SVcross@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I upgraded from Android 11 to Android 15 a couple of months ago. Damn, almost nothing changed.

People use the stock launcher? Try https://www.smartlauncher.net/

Edit: I just checked and doesn't look like I can set different grid sizes between folded / open in this either.

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I have ever since Nova sold out. Loved that one but I removed that immediately after the news came out. I don't hate the stock Samsung launcher, but it's left a lot to be desired.

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 days ago

Yeah I moved off nova to this. It took a bit to get used to it, but now I like it more.

I'm still on Nova with updates disabled. Tough one.

Downgrades, downgrades everywhere.

[–] pewpew@feddit.it 5 points 6 days ago

This is called "Enshittification"

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Skill issue. The feature is still in Good Lock, an app that everyone with a Samsung phone should have installed.

~~Hey, I've had a samsung for years and I've never heard of it before. Are we talking about the one by Soda Development? It looks like a way to password lock an app, what does it have to do with app icon grids?~~

Edit : That's the wrong app, you're almost certainly talking about Good Lock by heyUp.
