Samsung Internet drops scroll bar customization features
Samsung Internet Browser is a web browsing app exclusive to Galaxy devices, which offers a range of features designed to enhance the browsing experience, such as a Video Assistant, a customizable menu, Secret Mode, and more. However, Samsung has removed two customization features for the scroll bar with the recent Internet Browser update.
The scroll bar features that are no longer available after the latest update of Samsung Internet update are:
- Change the scroll bar position
- Hide the scroll bar
Users of the Samsung Galaxy smartphones will no longer be able to adjust the position or hide the scroll bar after installing version 27.0.0.79.
While some users may find this change disappointing, Samsung is simplifying the app’s appearance for a cleaner, more streamlined look. This move also indicates preparations for the next One UI 7 update, which is expected to bring further enhancements.
In addition to the scroll bar changes, the latest update introduces a search function for Internet Settings and enhances the app’s security by implementing end-to-end encryption for synced data.
Although some features have been removed, the latest update also makes the browsing experience better overall with these new improvements. If you use Samsung Internet for browsing, it’s essential to update to the latest version to take advantage of these new features and enhanced security.
With the removal of scroll bar options, Samsung Internet aims to focus on providing a cleaner, safer, and more user-friendly browsing experience.
