Switched from OnePlus phone, and OxygenOS had plenty features that I'm missing on OneUI.

  • Hidden app shelf/space: a hidden space to put any sensitive apps. It allows to set a password to open it (the method you use to unlock your phone)
  • Three finger swipe screenshot: as name says, swipe down gesture using three fingers to take a ss
  • Screen off gestures: customizable actions that triggers based on gestures (circle, "V", ">", "<", etc). I.E: circle gesture to turn on/off lantern, > gesture to skip forward song, < to go to previous song, two finger swipe down to pause/resume song

Get a different launcher. Or use app cloner premium to "disguise" an app as a calculator, until the code is entered.

IMO, Oxygen OS is the best android operating system there is. It's as close to pure android to that of theGoogle phones and is very clean from the start.

Having said that, where One UI leads is in customizations and a more varied functionality on top of really good AI for S25 line.

If one wants many different customizations as in gestures etc, download & install Good Lock from the Galaxy Store. Install Theme Park, QuickStar, Navstar and many other plug-ins created by Samsung Devs for those who want a really robust set of customization features for theme creations, gestures, picture taking etc.

If Oneplus had those types offerings, I would have bought the Oneplus 13 tbh.

I agree with you, OneUI has a big margin to customize (even bigger than OxygenOS), but it still lacks on functionalities mentioned.
