The removal of Samsung Notes from the beta comes after the app received support for Android Nougat, so you can grab it from the Galaxy Apps store or Google Play to continue using it. In fact, you should do so before installing the fourth beta, as all your Samsung Notes data will be erased once the app is deleted. A pop-up warning on our handsets confirmed as much, so unless you're backing up all your notes to your Samsung account, you will need to install the app from the store to keep your data.
Our Galaxy S7 edge also showed us a pop-up saying performance of the phone has been improved, and we have heard gaming and browsing have received special attention on that front. There's another important change with the new beta – the About device section of the phone no longer mentions Samsung Experience, so it looks like Samsung is not yet ready to give its software an official name.
The update is 280 MB in size and is available over the air right now; if you don't see a notification for the update yet, search for Software update in the settings menu to download it manually. See something new in the latest Nougat beta? Let us know in the comments, and check out our What’s New With Nougat series to see everything the Nougat beta has brought to the S7 and S7 edge!
