Smart suggestions New look and feel The Smart suggestions widget has been redesigned with a layout that better aligns with other icons on your Home screen. More customization You can now adjust transparency and choose between a white or black background. You can also set apps to exclude from suggestions. Finder Quick actions for apps When an app appears in your search results, you can touch and hold the app to get quick access to actions you can perform using the app. For example, if you search for the Calendar app, buttons for adding an event or searching your calendar will appear. App actions will also appear in search results on their own if you search for the name of the action instead of the app. My Files Free up storage space Recommendation cards will appear to help you free up storage space. My Files will recommend deleting unnecessary files, give you tips for setting up cloud storage, and also let you know which apps on your phone are using the most storage space. Integrated Trash with Gallery and Voice Recorder My Files, Gallery, and Voice Recorder Trash features have been combined into one. When you open the Trash in My Files, you’ll be able to see files, pictures, videos, and voice recordings you’ve deleted all together, along with options for restoring or permanently deleting. Copy files with 2 hands Touch and hold the file you want to copy with one hand, then use your other hand to navigate to the folder where you want to copy it. Samsung Pass Safer sign-ins with passkeys Use passkeys to sign in to supported apps and websites. Unlike passwords, your passkey is only stored on your phone and can't be leaked through a website security breach. Passkeys also protect you from phishing attacks because they only work on the website or app where they were registered.
