One UI
One UI is a software overlay developed by Samsung Electronics for its Android devices running Android 9 “Pie” and higher and Windows devices running Windows 11 and higher. Succeeding Samsung Experience and TouchWiz, it is designed to make using larger smartphones easier and become more visually appealing. To provide more clarity, some elements of the UI are tweaked to match the colors that are based on the color of the user's phone. It was announced at Samsung's developer conference in 2018,[1] and was unveiled in Galaxy Unpacked in February 2019 alongside the Galaxy S10 series, Galaxy Buds and the Galaxy Fold.

Features
One UI was designed as part of a goal to make Samsung's hardware and software "work together in perfect harmony" and provide a more "natural" experience on large-screen smartphones. One UI displays most of the features that were in the Samsung Experience UX. A prominent design pattern in many of Samsung's system applications is to intentionally place common features and user interface elements along the middle of the screen rather than near the top. This makes them easier to reach with a user's thumb when using the device one-handed. For similar reasons, apps utilise large headers to push their main content towards the vertical centre of the screen. The navigation bar supports the use of gestures and the usual 3-button system, while a system-wide "night mode" was also added (which gives UI elements and supported applications a darkened color scheme). As with Android Pie upstream, the Overview screen of recent apps uses a horizontal layout, as opposed to the vertical layout of previous versions.[2][3][4][5]
Version history
One UI 1
One UI 1.0, the first version of One UI, brought about many features which were becoming increasingly popular among various apps and iOS. First and foremost, dark mode was added to make viewing in dark spaces easier on the user's eyes. This feature was included in many apps and eventually brought to iOS 13 and Android 10. The first version also brought native screenshot editing tools, refined curves, refinements to the Always-On Display (tap to show), an upgraded Bixby with support for remapping the Bixby button, and a new way to navigate the device: gestures. While Android 9 “Pie” did come with gesture support, it was only available on Pixel devices and stock AOSP devices and is said to be 'half baked' by many users. However, Samsung decided to create their own gesture system to navigate devices with OneUI installed. To achieve this, the user has to swipe up from the bottom of the device in the three locations of the 'buttons' to navigate. The gesture system has received mixed reviews.[6][7][8]
One UI 1.1, a minor update for One UI, brought a few camera, fingerprint, and facial recognition stability fixes and performance optimizations.[9] This update isn't available on the Galaxy S8, Note8, S9, and Note9 range, but was an OTA update for the Galaxy S10 series devices. It launched with the 2019 Galaxy A series devices, such as the A30, A50 and A70 on May 21, 2019.
One UI 1.5, another minor update,[10] was primarily for Galaxy Smart Watches, however, does provide native Link to Windows support. It launched with the Galaxy Note10 series devices on August 23, 2019. It also had 3 notification sounds go through minor changes.
One UI 2
One UI 2.0, the second generation update to One UI (powered by Android 10),[11] provides Galaxy users with a skinned Digital Wellbeing experience, a more refined UI in some default apps such as Device Care, a minor UI change to the clock position in quick settings, a native screen recorder, the new Android 10 gesture system, Dynamic Lock Screen (different wallpaper with every unlock), a Trash folder in Files, native Android Auto, and harder Location permission access. OneUI 2.0 has already rolled out to Galaxy S10, Note10, Galaxy S9, and Note9 on December 3, 2019, range.
One UI 2.1, a minor update for One UI 2.1 on February 6, 2020, brings support for Galaxy devices that support 120 Hz refresh rate, Quick Share, Music Share, additional camera modes, and native support for Live Captions. It is first launched with the Galaxy S20 series devices & Galaxy Z Flip. It also arrived for other devices such as the Galaxy S9, Note9, S10, Note10,[12] Galaxy Fold, and select Galaxy A (2020)[13] devices as a software update.
One UI 2.5, Samsung rolled out One UI 2.5 with the on August 21, 2020 Galaxy Note 20 series, and the update is now making its way to the Galaxy S20 and older Samsung phones. One UI 2.5 doesn't bring radical changes to the UI, but there are plenty of new feature additions to the camera, DeX, gesture navigation, and other services.[14][15][16]
One UI 3
One UI 3.0, based on Android 11, was released for Galaxy S20 devices beginning December 2, 2020. The update includes a few noteworthy revisions, such as a translucent notification panel, new volume controls positioned on the right or left of the device alongside the physical volume keys, slightly enhanced widgets, and smoother animations and transitions throughout the whole UI.[17][18]
One UI 3.1, a minor update for One UI 3, first released with the Galaxy S21 series, has started rolling out to other supported Galaxy devices, starting with the Galaxy S20 series on February 17, 2021. There are no notable user interface changes. It contains many new camera feature improvements such as improved touch autofocus and auto exposure controller and improved Single Take feature and software implementations such as Object Eraser, Multi Mic Recording, Eye Comfort Shield, Private Share and others.[19]
One UI 3.1.1, a minor update for One UI 3 on August 31, 2021, first released with the Galaxy Z Fold 3 on August 11, 2021.
One UI 4
One UI 4.0, based on Android 12, is the fourth generation of One UI. It was released to the Galaxy S21 Series on November 16, 2021. One UI 4 focuses on customization, privacy, and access to Samsung's expanding ecosystem.[20][21]
One UI 4.1, a minor update for One UI 4, was first released with the Samsung Galaxy S22 series. It doesn't bring big changes, but it brings some features like Smart Calendar, added option to choose how much virtual RAM is desired (from 2, 4, 6 or 8 GB), redesigned palette picker, Smart Widgets, separate Left/Right audio balance, extra brightness toggle, Pro Mode on more cameras, Night Mode portraits, and other minor changes.[22]

Windows
In Windows 11, because only MUI languages are allowed to be preloaded on the first boot, additional languages can only be obtained through the Microsoft Store as usual. This is because LIP-based languages are associated with a larger MUI-based language. If multiple base languages are supported, the primary language is shown first.
The following languages are not supported on any Samsung-based Windows 11 device, so they cannot be installed:
- Afrikaans
- Amharic
- Central Kurdish
- Cherokee
- Hausa
