On my Galaxy Ultra Watch (2024), Tiles such as Heart Rate, Blood Oxygen, etc. now sit under Sub Folder Tiles (for a lack of a better word) such as Heart. The font is small and I can't see it as well as when I used to have just the full size Tiles. I don't want little sub folders on my small watch screen. Must have been designed by youngsters with perfect vision. The old format was much better. The new sub folder format makes it difficult to see. I know I can just tough the little icon in the Heart File Tile, but If rather not have the extra step. How can I change back to the old format?

New vs Original example

@FireHunter Sorry but there is not a way to switch those back.

There is no way to revert. This is the new style for tiles and all Samsung apps conform to it. However, Samsung does offer larger tiles for certain options such as heartrate.hihfyVJPvd.png

Thanks for the reply. That's too bad, but it is what it is. I will be searching out a different ecosystem then. I need my watch to display stuff as large as it can get, hence why I bought this watch with a big screen in the first place. If I wanted little print, I'd have bought a small screen watch. And to have to click through one extra step to see the old full size tile just takes time when exercising. Not sure what the thought process was to make things more difficult to see. Samsung designers, If it isn't broke, don't fix it... or give us an option to roll back. But I digress. again, Thanks for your help.

If you havent already, you could try turning on Bold Font and increasing font size in your watches display settings.

Thanks much. That did help a little. Still hope they introduce the option to use the old tiles vs the smaller stadium shaped tiles.
