New Galaxy Store update improves usability

Samsung is rolling out an update for the Galaxy Store for Galaxy smartphones and tablets. It carries version 4.6.03.8 and seems to bring only one, yet very useful upgrade that improves usability of the app.

On Samsung’s Community forum, a user revealed that after updating the Galaxy Store on their phone, the app has started showing the search bar at the bottom of the screen rather than at the top in the previous version of the app. You can see the difference between the older and newer designs in the screenshots below.

This is one of the upgrades that Samsung's apps for One UI 8.5 offer. Considering that, it looks like Samsung is preparing Galaxy Store for its upcoming software update. So far, that’s the only change that has been discovered. If we come across other changes, we will update the article.

When Samsung makes the update available for your Galaxy phone, as soon as you open the Galaxy Store, the app will show you a full-screen alert about a new version that is available, and give you two options: Update and Close app. Tap on the former option to update Galaxy Store to the latest version.
