Samsung Good Lock 2023 | Android 13, One UI 5.0
Good Lock is an app developed by Samsung exclusively for Galaxy devices. It provides several One UI customization services (modules) by which you can make your mobile interface more beautiful and easy to use. Hopefully, Samsung will launch Good Lock 2023 for eligible Galaxy devices soon.
On Android 13-based One UI 5.0, multiple apps and modules of Good Lock have stopped working because of compatibility issues with this new One UI version. Since the customization of the UI is based on the operating system, the company needs to re-optimize Good Lock to bring One UI 5.0 support.
