Samsung may introduce an innovative way to check the time on Galaxy phones
Samsung is reportedly working on introducing a new way to check the time on Galaxy devices, according to claims made by a tipster on a social media platform. It would allow users to check the time even when the device’s screen is off. The feature would be activated via a simple gesture. The feature could be offered within the Good Lock app rather than being natively integrated into the device’s operating system, the speculation goes.
New way to check the time on Galaxy phones
In an X afterTipster Tarun Vats shared details about this rumored feature that Samsung is reportedly developing. It was spotted in the Regista module of the Good Lock app. Currently, the app allows Samsung users to customize their lock screens and the overall UI of the device.
According to the claims, an update for the RegiStar module is currently in development that will allow users to check the time on their devices through a simple gesture of double-tapping the back even when the screen is off. The tipster claims that it could be known as “Check Time with Back Tap”.
The feature is said to be in development now. There is also speculation that it could come to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Flip 6 running One UI 6.1. 1, which are reportedly launching at the Galaxy Unpacked event in July. Other devices, however, could get it later with One UI 7, which could potentially be Samsung’s Android 15 update.
One UI 6.1.1 Update
Samsung is also said to be working on the One UI 6.1. 1 update for its smartphones. It could bring major camera improvements to the Galaxy S24 Ultra in particular. The Ultra, which debuted in January, is said to suffer from issues with shutter lag, motion blur and poor zoom quality.
According to tipster Ice Universe, the update could “include a lot of camera updates.” However, it is said to be in its early stages and will be tested for quite some time before being released to the public.
