Hello, I'd like the Quick Settings menu in the status bar restored to its size like in OneUI 7. Now, after updating to OneUI 8, it has shrunk to about half the screen of the Tab.

I buy Samsung devices mainly because of their accessibility features for the visually impaired, but this decision is the exact opposite. It even seems to ignore the zoom level and font size settings. And none of the settings for visual impaired seem to be able to change it.

Tab S10 Ultra

 

Thank you.

      As far as I am aware it cant be reversed.

      The good lock module 'quickstar' can allow you to modify the look of the panel, but it doesnt go back to a large panel.

      The thought with oneui8.x is that it doesnt block the whole width of the screen and a user can work around the panel if it is on screen... I.e. you can still see a proportion of a video when the panel is active etc.

      Whether like or not, the Samsung UI updates are likely there to stay. And without options to reverse.

      That may make sense, but it's really inconvenient for the visually impaired people whod don't want to see many things at once, but rather one big thing clearly. Samsung has many of such features so they're just going against themselves.

      Thanks for the tip on the app, though.
