In addition, the Community moderator recommended Galaxy S22 users upgrade the Samsung Members app to the latest version, which is the only way to join the One UI 5.0 Beta testing. Due to the internal test preparations, the One UI 5.0 Beta program has also been delayed.

In addition to the US, Germany and South Korea, Samsung promised to start the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 Beta program in India, China, Poland and the UK. Recently, it was reported that the Galaxy S22 will soon get the One UI 5.0 Beta 2 with new icons for some native apps.
