Hello and thanks for entering my post. Would it be possible to add a feature for the Samsung One UI Home Screen that let's you have different profiles.

In this case I mean that you may want one home screen that is for looks and one that is for seeing all your “important” apps etc.

Thanks for reading and have a nice day, I know the Samsung Team may not see or read this but thought it was worth a try.

      You can use panels on home screen. Pinch inwards and then slide to right or left and add 2nd panel and so on to add more things to home screen.

      ​1. Custom Focus Modes (Built-in One UI Feature)

      You can tie entirely different home screen pages to specific Modes (e.g., "Minimal/Aesthetic Mode" vs. "Productivity/Work Mode"):

      ​Go to Settings > Modes and Routines > Modes. ​Create or select a Mode (e.g., create a custom mode called "Focus" or "Clean").

      ​Scroll down to the Home Screen section inside that mode's settings. ​Choose which specific home screen pages appear when that mode is turned on. You can set it so your "Aesthetics" page shows up by default, and when you toggle "Productivity Mode," a page loaded with your important widgets and apps takes over instead.

      ​2. Samsung Good Lock: Home Up (Backup & Swap)

      If you want two entirely distinct layout setups (different grids, icons, and folder arrangements):

      ​Download Good Lock from the Galaxy Store and install the Home Up module.

      ​Use the Backup and Restore feature inside Home Up.

      ​Arrange your phone for "Looks," save a backup named "Aesthetic Setup," then arrange your home screen for "Utility" and save a backup named "Important Apps Setup". You can switch between these saved layout profiles in seconds.

      ​3. Android Multiple User Profiles

      If you want a complete, hard boundary between two phone environments:

      ​Go to Settings > Accounts and Backup > Users.

      ​You can add a secondary user profile (e.g., "Work" or "Minimal").

      ​Swapping users gives you a completely separate home screen, launcher settings, and isolated app environment.

      ​Alternative Workaround: Smart Widget Stacks

      If you don't want to switch entire modes, you can stack your "important" widgets and app groups directly on top of each other on a single page. Swipe right/left on the widget stack to instantly reveal your utility tools when needed, leaving the home screen looking clean and minimalist the rest of the time.
