Overall, 8.5 is a dramatic improvement in terms of visual consistency. Thank you, Samsung for listening! Most of my previous requests have been answered. Here are the few that remain and ought to be corrected:
- Please consider expanding blur/frosted glass effect to include Samsung Keyboard
- Please consider forcing Color Pallete to apply to all app icons
- Please consider an option to invert the color scheme of color pallete icons to better match Google's Material You โ that is, an option to make color icon on dark/light icon tray rather than the current dark/light icon on color tray
Thank you for your time and attention to these matters and thank you for all you do!
- Expanded Blur/frosted glass looks amazing and is more consistently applied than in 8.0, but still needs to apply to more areas of the UI including small folders and ALL stock widgets
No blur/frosted glass on small folder
Concept created using KWGT
Light mode concept - achieved with transparency but only looks like this in finder
Dark mode concept - achieved with transparency but only looks like this in finder
Notice how the colors are completely inverted from what Material You icons/widgets

Color Palette Icons used to properly follow Material You in 6.1 but have not since 7.0
- Theme Park still cannot theme icons without losing dynamic icon support. Please add an option to create live clock and calendar icons as part of an icon pack.
- Theme Park still does not have an option to retain the default appearance of lock screen shortcuts. Please fix.
Thank you for your time and attention to these matters and thank you for all you do!
