One UI 7.0: Edge Panel Changes

One UI 7.0 to Restrict Edge Panel Downloads

Samsung's One UI 7.0 update will limit access to Edge Panels. Users upgrading to One UI 7.0 won't be able to download new Edge Panels from the Galaxy Store. Existing, pre-installed panels will remain functional and accessible via the "My Apps" section. However, once uninstalled, these panels cannot be re-downloaded.

Key Changes and Impact

• No new Edge Panel downloads after One UI 7.0 update.
• Pre-installed panels remain usable.
• Uninstalled panels cannot be retrieved.
• New devices with One UI 7.0 or later will have Edge Panels accessible only if previously installed on older devices.

This change may signal Samsung's intention to eventually phase out Edge Panels. For users who anticipate needing them, installing and saving them in "My Apps" before upgrading is recommended.
