Leak Reveals One UI 9 Home Up Overhaul With Dock Editor and Multi‑Finger Gestures

Overview

• An early One UI 9 build leaked by GalaxyTechie on X and reported by multiple outlets shows a major Home Up update that targets homescreen customization.
• The dock editor will let users set a separate app count for the favorites tray and apply custom backgrounds with color, blur, images, corner radius, padding and preset themes.
• A new multi-finger gesture system supports two- to five-finger inputs and maps swipes, pinches, taps and long presses to actions such as screenshots, app launches, search, and volume or brightness control.
• The features are exposed through the Good Lock Home Up module rather than the base launcher, the build is circulating in the One UI 9 beta on Galaxy S26 devices, and Samsung has not officially confirmed the changes.
• The update continues Samsung’s long-running strategy of offering modular, power-user options beyond the stock UI, which could let owners create bespoke workflows and should appear on upcoming Galaxy flagships before a wider rollout.
