TL;DR
- Home Up finally works again on One UI 8.5 beta, and its latest update brings deeper home screen controls and less cramped folder layouts.
- Foldable users get meaningful tweaks, like control over how many favorite apps appear on the cover screen.
- However, turning on the blur option can cause animations to freeze and jitter.
After weeks of compatibility headaches and half-baked beta support, Home Up — arguably the heart of Galaxy home screen customisation — now works with One UI 8.5 beta and gives you real control over your Galaxy home screen again.
If you’ve played around with the One UI 8.5 beta on Galaxy devices, you were probably frustrated when Home Up and a handful of other Good Lock modules broke after the update. For weeks, users saw errors like “not compatible with your new operating system,” basically rendering beloved customisation tools useless.
