Samsung Experience (stylized as SΛMSUNG Experience) was the name of the software overlay by Samsung for its Galaxy devices running Android 7.x “Nougat” and Android 8.x “Oreo”. It was introduced in early 2017 on a beta build based on Android 7.0 “Nougat” for the Galaxy S8, succeeding TouchWiz.{{Cite news|url=http://news.softpedia.com/news/say-goodbye-to-touchwiz-hello-samsung-experience-511096.shtml|title=Say Goodbye to TouchWiz UI, Hello "Samsung Experience"|last=Vlad|first=Andrei|newspaper=softpedia|language=en-us|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2018-06-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180620203719/https://news.softpedia.com/news/say-goodbye-to-touchwiz-hello-samsung-experience-511096.shtml|url-status=live}} It has been succeeded in 2018 by One UI based on Android 9 “Pie” and later versions. The reason some Samsung phones received Samsung Experience on Android 7.0 while others got it on Android 8.0 comes down to device release timelines and software updates. Older devices (like the Galaxy S7) first received Samsung Experience with Samsung Experience 9.0 on Android 8.0 Oreo. Newer devices (such as the Galaxy S8) launched with Android 7.0 Nougat with Samsung Experience 8.1. So not all Samsung phones running Android 7.0 had Samsung Experience, some still retained TouchWiz.

History

{{Main|TouchWiz}}

TouchWiz was the former name that Samsung used for its UI and icons. It was originally released in May 2008 for the SGH-F480 mobile phone. Reviewers had criticized Samsung for including too many features and software bloat, especially in the Galaxy S4, which included what many users called a Samsung "feature creep".{{Cite news|url=https://www.cnet.com/how-to/get-useless-bloatware-off-your-galaxy-s4/|title=Get useless bloatware off your Galaxy S4|newspaper=CNET|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224141659/https://www.cnet.com/how-to/get-useless-bloatware-off-your-galaxy-s4/|url-status=live}} In the following years, though, Samsung had incrementally removed the bloatware and extra features, until TouchWiz was no longer recognized as TouchWiz, leading them to rename it.{{Cite news|url=http://appleapple.top/samsung-wants-to-solve-the-main-problem-of-their-smartphones-renaming-the-touchwiz-in-the-samsung-experience/|title=Samsung wants to solve the main problem of their smartphones, renaming the TouchWiz in the Samsung Experience|date=2016-12-08|newspaper=AppleApple .top world news {{!}} All top APPLE news, iPhone, iMac, iPad, Apple Watch|language=en-US|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224054543/http://appleapple.top/samsung-wants-to-solve-the-main-problem-of-their-smartphones-renaming-the-touchwiz-in-the-samsung-experience/|url-status=live}}

Features

= Home screen =

Samsung Experience makes several changes to Android's default homescreen. The apps icon is on the bottom right of the screen instead of the bottom middle, the Google Now search bar is just below the middle of the screen instead of at the top, and there is a weather widget (provided by The Weather Channel or AccuWeather in select countries or devices) at the top right corner of the screen. In addition, a user can edit the apps grid layout.{{Cite news|url=http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/5-samsung-touchwiz-features-that-should-be-in-stock-android-1320094|title=5 Samsung TouchWiz features that should be in stock Android|newspaper=TechRadar|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224052914/http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/5-samsung-touchwiz-features-that-should-be-in-stock-android-1320094|url-status=live}}

= Edge UX =

The "Edge" (curved glass at the edge of the screen) was originally introduced in the Galaxy Note Edge, and popularized with the Galaxy S6 Edge.

== Edges ==

The tasks edge gives users a shortcut to commonly utilized tasks, such as making a phone call to a certain contact, setting a timer, and creating an event in S Planner. It is an assortment of icons (e.g. contact pictures [with phone, messaging, or mail icons], an app icon with a plus symbol on its bottom right corner, or a photo [from your library] masked in the shape of a circle [with the gallery icon on the bottom right corner]) on the right of the screen.{{Cite web|url=https://news.samsung.com/global/get-things-done-faster-with-the-newly-enhanced-edge-screen|title=Get Things Done Faster with the Newly Enhanced Edge Screen|website=news.samsung.com|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-01-26|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170126085244/https://news.samsung.com/global/get-things-done-faster-with-the-newly-enhanced-edge-screen|url-status=live}} The people edge allows the user to add 5 different contacts to display on the screen, for quick access to functions such as calling, texting, and emailing. It displays the contact's name and photo. The apps edge displays ten of a user's most frequently used apps, with five in two columns. A user can also add a complete folder to the screen.File:Samsung Galaxy S7 Apps Edge.jpg

== Edge panels ==

Yahoo! sports, finance, and news are panels that are included with the phone. A user can download extra panels for ease of use, such as an RSS reader, Twitter trends, and news from CNN.{{Cite news|url=https://www.androidpit.com/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-best-panels|title=Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge best panels: what you should download – AndroidPIT|newspaper=AndroidPIT|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224052854/https://www.androidpit.com/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-best-panels|url-status=live}}

== Quick tools ==

With quick tools, the Edge transforms into a ruler, compass, or flashlight.

== Edge feeds ==

When a user swipes the edge of the screen and the screen is off, the edge display turns on and displays missed calls, the current time, weather, and news.{{Cite news|url=http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/galaxy-s7-edge-tips-and-tricks/|title=20 handy Galaxy S7 Edge tips and tricks|date=2016-05-14|newspaper=Digital Trends|language=en-US|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224054739/http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/galaxy-s7-edge-tips-and-tricks/|url-status=live}}

= Grace UX =

First released with the Galaxy Note 7 for Android Marshmallow, the Grace UX was named after the device's codename, and eventually made its way to some later phones with Android 6, such as the 2017 edition of the Galaxy A series. The Grace UX features a cleaner, flatter look to iconography and extensive use of white space. TouchWiz Grace UX devices also benefit from the Secure Folder functionality, which enables users to keep certain data, and even apps, behind a secure password.

In addition, for most countries, all the languages that were absent from previous versions (Android Marshmallow or earlier) are available in this release.

= Always-on display =

{{main|Always on Display}}

File:Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (25690678361).jpg

Most of Samsung's mobile devices have AMOLED displays and the screen is left mostly black when the always-on display is active; only illuminated pixels require power since they are LEDs. The screen will display the current time, the calendar, or a selected image. There are different styles for each option (the clock has 7 styles, the calendar has 2 styles, and the image has 3 styles).{{Cite news|url=https://www.cnet.com/how-to/get-to-know-the-galaxy-s7s-always-on-display/|title=Get to know the Galaxy S7's Always-On Display|newspaper=CNET|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224052806/https://www.cnet.com/how-to/get-to-know-the-galaxy-s7s-always-on-display/|url-status=live}} Later on, additional functionality was added to turn on the always-on display feature either in a scheduled manner, or keep it always on. The always-on display also adjusts its brightness as per the ambient light brightness automatically.

The Always-on Display is available on Galaxy A series (2017 & 2018), S7/S7 edge, S8/S8+, Note 8 and higher, Galaxy J7 (2017)/J7 Pro/J7+ (or C7 2017), Galaxy C5/C7/C9 Pro, and higher devices only.

= File Manager =

Samsung includes a file manager with its Galaxy phones, unlike stock Android.{{Cite news|url=http://www.phonearena.com/news/15-TouchWiz-features-that-make-the-day-to-day-Android-experience-better_id67067|title=15 TouchWiz features that make the day-to-day Android experience better|newspaper=Phone Arena|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-02-24|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170224134457/http://www.phonearena.com/news/15-TouchWiz-features-that-make-the-day-to-day-Android-experience-better_id67067|url-status=live}}

It also gives access to Google Drive and OneDrive cloud storage solutions and ability to connect to FTP servers.

= Game Launcher =

Any game that a user downloads is combined into a single folder. In that folder, one can optimize frame rate and resolution.{{Cite news|url=http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-1315189/review/3|title=Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge review|newspaper=TechRadar|language=en|access-date=2017-01-29|archive-date=2017-01-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170120073627/http://www.techradar.com/reviews/phones/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-1315189/review/3|url-status=live}} It includes Game Tools, a button that appears when a user is playing a game. When tapped, it can mute notifications, turn off the capacitive keys, minimize the game, screenshot, and record gameplay.

This feature was renamed as Gaming Hub in late 2023.

= Bixby =

Bixby is an assistant that launched with the Samsung Galaxy S8. It replaces S Voice on Samsung phones and has three parts, including Bixby Voice, Bixby Vision and Bixby Home. Bixby Voice can be triggered by saying "Hey Bixby" or pressing and holding the button located below the volume rocker, dubbed the Bixby Button. Bixby Vision is built into the camera app and can "see" what one can see as it is essentially an augmented reality camera that can identify objects in real time, search for them on various services, and offer the user to purchase them if available. Bixby is also able to translate text, read QR codes and recognize landmarks.{{Cite web|url=https://www.theverge.com/2017/3/29/15097744/samsung-bixby-galaxy-s8-assistant-vs-siri-alexa-android|title=Three things we know Samsung's new assistant can do on the Galaxy S8|last=Bohn|first=Dieter|date=2017-03-29|website=The Verge|access-date=2017-07-07|archive-date=2017-11-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171113100947/https://www.theverge.com/2017/3/29/15097744/samsung-bixby-galaxy-s8-assistant-vs-siri-alexa-android|url-status=live}} Bixby Home can be found by swiping to the right on the home screen. It is a vertically scrolling list of information that Bixby can interact with, for example, weather, fitness activity, and buttons for controlling their smart home gadgets.

== Keyword ==

Bixby can do tasks related to a single keyword. For example, a simple "Good Night" can request the device to turn to silent mode and turn on the Night Mode display.

= S Pen =

  • Air Command: A collection of shortcuts that appear when the S Pen is taken out.
  • Smart Select: Create custom GIFs (also available on Galaxy S8/+ and S9/+ after 7.0 Nougat update)
