Samsung’s One UI 8 gets fresh lock screen tricks

Samsung has released an update to its LockStar module, part of the Good Lock customization suite, introducing a set of playful new fingerprint unlock animations. The update, targeted at devices running the upcoming One UI 8, adds several effects, including a water drop ripple, a ghost emoji that bursts into stars, and a starburst explosion that triggers upon unlocking.

These new animations add a layer of personalization to Samsung devices, and are reportedly popular among users testing One UI 8 on the Galaxy S25 series. However, the feature is exclusive to the new software version. Users who have tried to manually install the updated LockStar app on devices running One UI 7 report that the new animations do not function.

This update is part of a broader effort by Samsung to prepare its suite of Good Lock customization modules for One UI 8. By offering deep personalization tools like LockStar, which allows users to tweak nearly every aspect of their device’s interface, Samsung continues to differentiate itself in the Android market and appeal to a loyal base of power users.
