One UI 7’s Home Up Update Leaked, Brings Home Screen Customizations

by | Feb 4, 2025 | News, Samsung Apps, Updates

Samsung is preparing to roll out One UI 7 to the Galaxy S24 series and other eligible devices in the coming days. Ahead of that, an updated version of its Home Up app has leaked, introducing smoother system animations and additional customization options. The new version gives Galaxy users more control over their device’s interface.

Home Up update for One UI 7 leaked ahead of launch

Samsung shipped the Galaxy S25 series with Android 15-based One UI 7 but didn’t include the latest version of Home Up, the Good Lock module for customizing the default launcher. Although the update has yet to be officially released, X user @tarunvats33 recently shared its APK file — the new version still isn’t available through the Galaxy Store.

We installed the APK on a Galaxy S24 Ultra running the third One UI 7 beta and found several notable improvements. For one, version 16.0.00.56 of Home Up gets a UI redesign to match One UI 7 aesthetics. It lets you place items anywhere on the home screen — there is no grid constraint. You can also perform multi-finger gestures anywhere on the home screen.

System animations are highly customizable, with Samsung allowing you to customize the size of app icons and folders. Additionally, this Home Up update enhances Edge Panels and Taskbar. Samsung has integrated some features into the main home screen settings, so you can access them without launching Home Up from Good Lock.

As mentioned above, this Home Up update wasn’t available for us via the Galaxy Store at the time of writing this article. We checked on multiple Galaxy S24 Ultra and S25 Ultra units running One UI 7. Hopefully, Samsung will officially release the new version soon. You should be able to download it from here. If you are comfortable sideloading the APK, you can find it here.
