TL;DR
- One UI 8.5 will reportedly support the Clock app on the Now Bar, allowing users to view and dismiss alarms from the lock screen.
- The Voice Recorder app is also getting a redesign, featuring gradients and a card-centric list view, which unfortunately reduces information density.
One of the most prominent and useful new features introduced by Samsung for its phones recently is the Now Bar. This feature displays helpful updates from various apps on the lock screen and Always-On Display, allowing users to receive live notifications without needing to unlock their phones. With the One UI 8.5 update, Samsung could support the Clock app on the Now Bar.
