    The stable and official worldwide release of the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ Android Pie update kicked off earlier today. Samsung chose Germany as the starting point, but the update is now beginning to show up in other markets as well. As with all major upgrades, Pie will be released in stages and the list of countries where the update is rolling out will grow bigger and bigger in the coming days.

    To make it easy for you to see if Android Pie is available in your country, we've put together that list below and will be constantly updating it as and when we learn about another country getting the update. You can help out by telling us in the comments if you have the update in a country not on the list so we can add it in. And remember, this list is for countries where the update has been released for all Galaxy S9 and S9+ owners, not just those in the Android Pie beta program.

    Samsung made it as easy as pie for Galaxy phone and tablet users to grab screenshots and screen recordings.

    Got a new Galaxy S24 case and screen protector? Don’t forget these One UI settings

    Samsung’s Modes and Routines is sorely lacking device ecosystem features

    I've been a fan of Samsung's Modes and Routines tool for years, but the feeling that it could use a few more options never went away. In fact, as my Samsung device ecosystem expanded, that feeling became more prominent. Granted, you can create plenty of fun and useful automations when you pair a Samsung smart […]

    Samsung better not remove Notification Categories in One UI!

    The Notification Categories feature is among the most useful and well-integrated One UI elements. I'd go as far as to say it's probably underrated, but that doesn't really bother me as long as the feature exists and remains a part of One UI. To be frank, the thought that Samsung might be preparing to remove […]
