It’s impressive that a community member recreated this animation, but it highlights a recurring issue with Android foldables. Apple manages to integrate these fluid transitions natively into iOS, whereas Samsung users have to rely on third-party apps or workarounds to get the same polished experience. Samsung should prioritize adding these types of native "delight" features directly into One UI so we don't have to install extra software to make our phones feel premium.

Have you ever even used a OneUI phone? They've been loaded with mountains of features like this and others for years. I have serious doubts.

So this is just a photo animation, not a functional screen? And the claims that he did in one evening what Apple took months to do?


it’s just a fade on a background image…? Ok. Of course novelty wears off - there’s no function into what you see on screen - just screenshot of icons on next screen.


sorry but that’s just like they were mimicking Dynamic Island with a background image - it doesn’t function like on iOS - just blackout pill shaped object.
