Samsung’s Now Bar Will Support Third-Party Apps in Upcoming One UI 8 Update

The update can give users access to live information from apps such as delivery tracking, weather, and boarding passes.

Samsung has announced that its Now Bar will soon support third-party apps. This was shared during Samsung’s recent Unpacked event, where the company revealed the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, Z Flip 7 FE, and Watch 8 series. All of these new devices run on One UI 8, which brings a new iteration of the Now Bar made to work with apps beyond Samsung’s own ecosystem.
