Future Features Suggestions for Samsung

Nobody using their devices as utilitarian devices want. (The only time I come to this forum is when your decisions affect my long time usage habits and become counter-productive.)

1. Features that drain my battery life. I just got rid of my Samsung account on my newer device and I don't have Google. I went from 4D battery life to 1D 11H with your last update. I will not be updating again. Nothing I have my own security measures and I have no accounts on my device so not on anyone's radar.

2. One size does not fit all. Your devices are aggravating to me except the older ones. I bought the hardware so I'm using the hardware without your software. It is not utilitarian. I don't need AI telling me to call my dead mother. I need my battery to last 4 days.

3. You fix one thing and break another. Thank you for taking those horrible back boxes off my notification panel. And I will not be updating to 8.5 where strip the recovery menu down to three options. A factory data reset is the nuclear option. Cleaning the cache or managing your phone from your laptop is the least draconian.

4. Honestly I don't know what you are doing. I've been using your hardware for a long time it is solid. I cannot take that away from you but your software is unusable at this point. My tablet lockscreen with one ui 8.0 is faded while the desktop with the same wallpaper is vivid. The notification panel is not proportional in the newer phone but the older perfect. I'm gotten rid of Samsung accounts on all devices because I don't want your software.

4. Taking away options. Google maybe tightening Android to not allowing sideloading on Android devices but that won't be happening on mines. I'm long gone. All the apps I use and get from other stores don't require Google services. And, my banking I can access thru a browser which I am doing now. I've been out of that constant update your banking app for years. On a device I bought a few years ago with full features is unacceptable. Bait and switch.

I agree with all that you said. These phones are getting worse with each update.
