My primary smartphone is an Android, and unless I’m testing a new device, I almost always use a Galaxy phone. I find One UI the best Android interface out there currently. It’s fast, customizable, and packed with several useful features that other Android skins don’t offer.

That said, I can’t use One UI in its default settings: some aren’t configured to my preferences, while others are overly privacy-invasive and harvest data in the background. For this reason, I always disable numerous One UI settings on any Galaxy phone before I start using it. Here are some crucial ones you can consider turning off too.
