👏 Huge win for Power Saving mode on One UI!

Team Samsung, this is a thoughtful update.

With the new toggle under Power Saving—“Set screen timeout to 30 seconds”—we now have control over lock screen behavior while conserving battery. Turn it off, and your custom timeout settings (via Good Lock + LockStar) are respected. Turn it on, and you get the quick timeout for max efficiency.

Best of both worlds: 
- Power Saving stays on 
- Lock screen timeout stays your choice 
- No performance dip on the S24 Ultra 
- Notifications still come through reliably 

This is the kind of smart flexibility that makes One UI shine. Great job, Samsung!

Just adding a personal note—I had requested this feature from Samsung Support a couple of times, and I know others in the community did too. Seeing it arrive in One UI 8 is a great example of Samsung listening and responding. The S24 Ultra handles Power Saving beautifully, and now we get better battery life without sacrificing lock screen usability. Well done, Samsung—and well done, community!

I realized that the setting in power savings for toggling on/off set lock screen timeout to 30% was there in OneUI7 but it never worked. Always timed out in 5 seconds and did not respect the settings in Goodlock/LockStar. OneUI 8 has fixed this byth adhering to the settings in LockStar when power savings is turned on. Very good! 👍
