Scroll down for a full list of changes.

Multi window
• Touch and hold text, a link, or a file in Notes, My Files, Messages, or Samsung Internet, then drag it to the edge of the screen to open it in split screen or a pop-up window.
• Arrange your open apps into multi window configurations so you can see more at once.

Home screen
• Keep your Home screen layout in sync between the cover and main screens. Changes in one place are reflected in the other.

Edge panels
• The background screen is no longer blurred when you open edge panels.

Camera
• Use Capture View  to review up to 3 pictures or videos on the screen at once and scroll through up to 100 recent shots. You can compare, zoom in on, delete, and share shots without ever leaving Camera.
• Preview filters and face effects on the main screen and cover screen when using Dual Preview. That way, both the photographer and the subject can see exactly how every shot’s going to look.
• Use Dual preview to preview AR Emoji Camera and AR Doodle videos on both the main screen and cover screen.
• Record AR Doodle videos in 9:16, 1:1, and full screen to show them off in a variety of different places.

Settings
• Split-screen view is now supported on the main screen.

Samsung keyboard
• Better preloaded stickers.

Digital Wellbeing
• Turn on Bedtime mode whenever you want. Going to sleep at a different time than usual? No problem.

Labs
Try experimental features to get more out of the large screen and Flex mode.
• Open all apps in split screen or pop-up view and customize app aspect ratios in full screen.
• Rotate any app to portrait or landscape, even if it’s not normally supported.
• Use Flex mode with more apps when your phone is partially folded.
• Pin the Apps edge panel to the screen as a taskbar for quick app switching.

Additional large screen improvements
• When you leave the Clock app while a timer is running, a mini timer will appear on top of other apps so you can keep track of how much time is remaining.
• Navigation rail has been added to several apps to give you more space for primary content. (Reminder, Calendar, My files, Tips, Weather)
• Secondary apps can be opened in small overlay windows to keep you focused on your main task. (Phone, Contacts, Gallery)

Some apps will need to be updated separately after the One UI 3.1.1 update.

After updating, you will not be able to downgrade to the old software because of updates to the security policy.
