Android 15-based One UI 7.0 arrived a couple of months ago, bringing enhancements such as a redesigned user interface, smoother animations, and innovative features. A notable change is the new icon for the Samsung Find app. Now, this updated icon is also available on devices running Android 14-based One UI 6.1.1.
According to a Reddit user , the Find app icon has been updated on One UI 6.1.1 to match the one in One UI 7. The older icon has been replaced with a newer design.
It appears the rollout of the new icon is happening gradually through a server-side update. While a small detail, it shows that Samsung is focused on refining the user experience.
Method 1: Waiting for the Server-Side Update
The most straightforward approach is to wait for the server-side update from Samsung. This doesn’t require any manual steps, but it also means you have no control over when you’ll receive the new icon. Keep an eye on your app drawer to see if the icon changes automatically.
Method 2: Checking for App Updates
If you’re eager to get the new icon, you can try manually checking for updates to the Find app.
Step 1: Open the Galaxy Store app.
Step 2: Tap on the Menu icon (usually three horizontal lines) located in the bottom right corner.
Step 3: Select Updates.
Step 4: Look for the Find app in the list. If an update is available, tap the Update button next to it.
Step 5: After the update is installed, check if the Find app icon has been updated on your home screen or app drawer.
Method 3: Clearing App Cache and Data
If updating the app doesn’t immediately change the icon, try clearing the app’s cache and data. Note that clearing data may reset some of your app’s settings.
Step 1: Open your device’s Settings app.
Step 2: Tap on Apps.
Step 3: Find and select the Find app.
Step 4: Tap on Storage.
Step 5: Tap on Clear cache.
Step 6: Tap on Clear data.
Step 7: Restart your device.
Step 8: Check if the Find app icon has been updated.
While the new icon for the Find app on One UI 6.1.1 isn’t a major change, it’s a subtle visual refresh that some users may appreciate.
