  • Samsung rolls out Home Up v17.5.00.18 for One UI 8.5 beta with deeper controls and foldable tweaks
    January 19, 2026, 5:26 PM EST. Samsung has rolled out Home Up v17.5.00.18 for the One UI 8.5 beta, restoring functionality after compatibility breaks and adding new controls for icons, widgets and folders. A unified panel now groups apps, tasks and contacts. For foldables, Samsung lets users cap how many favorite apps appear on the cover screen and adds a toggle to disable the back gesture for switching apps. You can exclude apps from the Direct Share panel and fixes address layout issues in DIY mode and some widgets. However, enabling blur can cause animation freezes. The update is rolling out via Galaxy Store; sideloading the APK is possible but risky. More devices will receive the updates when a stable OS lands.
