For a long time, Samsung’s Good Lock has allowed users to deeply customize their OneUI experience on Galaxy smartphones. Until now, this feature, accessible through the Good Lock app, was limited to certain regions and is only available through the Galaxy Store. However, with the release of OneUI 7 in 2025, Good Lock support is set to expand. The app will soon be available to users around the world, and for the first time, it will be accessible on the Google Play Store.
Good Lock has been around for many years, giving users more control over their Samsung Galaxy devices. The app allows users to make changes to various aspects of OneUI, including modifying the default Samsung Launcher and adding support for running apps on the cover display of devices like the Galaxy Z Flip.
The news of the expansion of Good Lock comes as Samsung is preparing to roll out OneUI 7, which is in beta for the Galaxy S24 series and is expected to come to the Galaxy S25 series when it launches. For the first time, Good Lock will be available in all countries, making it accessible to a much wider audience.
Until now, users in regions where Good Lock was not available had to find workarounds or rely on different methods, such as sideloading apps from third-party websites. Now, with its new global availability, more users will be able to take advantage of its features, like customizing the user interface, adjusting the layout of apps, and even adding widgets that weren’t possible before. Additionally, this feature will no longer be limited to the Galaxy Store; Users will be able to download and update Good Lock directly from the Google Play Store.
Along with new distribution channels, Samsung is also redesigning the Good Lock app. The update will focus on improving the overall user interface, making it easier for users to find and manage their customization options. A new “My Pages” tab will be added, allowing users to better organize their settings and preferences. There will also be a filter feature that helps users find specific good lock apps more easily.
Although Good Lock has been around for some time, the upcoming update will introduce new changes to the way it works with OneUI 7. Some Good Lock apps that were previously not compatible with the system will be updated to work with Samsung’s latest version. The software offers even more options for customization.
