Bluetooth Icon

[jmermel]

Has anyone noticed that on the new UI 7, the Bluetooth icon does not show on the home screen, upper right side,just about every other screen. It did on the UI 6 Does anyone know how to make it appear on home screen?  Samsung Customer support said I should reset my phone. Wasted hours reinstalling. Same problem thx

Samsung made the decision to remove the Bluetooth Icon from the Status Bar.. in their view, to streamline the Status Bar, and only show the "most important icons".

Samsung Canada Chat Support, are of clueless.. too bad that they made you waste your time.

The Bluetooth Icon is still shows if you pull down from the top right side of the screen but not on the home screen

Yes.. but is it animated 🤣

[Ray1]

I don't think it can be animated because it does not show if you turn Bluetooth off

Hi jmermel,

In One UI 7, Samsung made some adjustments to streamline the status bar by only showing what they consider the most essential icons. Unfortunately, this means the Bluetooth icon no longer appears persistently, even when a device is connected.

We understand this change may not be ideal for everyone, especially for users who rely on quick visual cues. Feel free to leave feedback through the Samsung Members app your input helps shape future updates.

Thank you.
