Samsung confirms One UI Home 15.1 update will fix homescreen widget animation issue

Samsung has been working to roll out the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update for all eligible Galaxy devices. Meanwhile, some users are facing the home screen widget animation issue after installing this major update.

According to the information, some animation effects of home screen apps on the Galaxy S23 series after the One UI 6.0 update may look unnatural when switching to the home screen by closing the widget.

Samsung has acknowledged this issue and plans to release a new update for the ‘One UI Home’ app that improves this phenomenon. The company will release the One UI Home app 15.1 (15.1.00.29) update soon to fix the widget animation issue.

This update is expected to improve the smoothness of some functions on the Galaxy S23 series, including smoother animations while opening and closing apps and widgets using navigation gestures.

To update the app to the latest version, users can navigate to Settings >> Home screen >> scroll down and tap on About Home screen information >> Update and follow the instructions.
