    It would be nice if we could customize the Now Bar interface with Good Lock.

    @qzrl Yeah I feel you on that. Good Lock support would definitely improve customization. Hopefully Samsung considers adding that in a future update since a lot of users are asking for deeper control over things like the Now Bar. For now it’s still a solid feature, but that kind of integration would make it even better.
