Samsung’s temporary solutions for notification background issues on lock screen
Samsung has released a new update for the LockStar Good Lock module with version 6.1.00.18. The update is available on the Galaxy Store with a package size of 46.44MB. It brings some useful fixes and improvements.
The fresh update fixes an issue with the clock display and editing features on the Samsung Galaxy Flip 6. Users had reported issues with changing or seeing the clock on their lock screen using LockStar.
Finally, the new update addresses that problem, so Flip 6 owners should now have a smoother experience when customizing their lock screens. It also fixes other common issues like crashing, freezing, etc.
In addition to fixing the clock issue, the update also includes some other improvements to make the app work better overall. However, Samsung has not mentioned these other changes but they make the app more stable and reliable.
Samsung LockStar is a handy tool for Galaxy users who like to personalize their lock screens. The new version makes that process easier and more enjoyable. We recommend users install the latest update to enjoy new and enhanced features.

Samsung plans to resolve clock overlapping issue in upcoming software updates
Samsung is looking to add a new feature called Predictive Back to its One Hand Operation+ app. The feature makes it easier for users to navigate their phones by giving them a preview of the previous screen before performing the back gesture. This is especially useful for people who often use their phones with one hand.
The Samsung community moderator has noted that there are some technical issues in implementing this function. Due to these issues, it is currently unclear whether the Predictive Back feature will be supported.
Samsung One Hand Operation+ app has some limitations that affect its ability to integrate advanced features like Predictive Back. These limitations are causing performance issues that need to be addressed before the feature can be fully supported.
The Korean tech giant has acknowledged these challenges and is working to find a solution. As users are eager to see the feature, the team is making every effort to resolve the technical issues.
However, the Samsung community moderator has not given any specific timeline about when the predictive back feature will be available. We can just hope that it will soon be available with One Hand Operation+update.
Talking about the Predictive Back, the feature provides a smoother, more intuitive navigation experience while using gesture navigation. It uses built-in animations to inform users where their actions will take them, reducing unexpected outcomes.
