- The latest builds of One UI 7 have added Live Notifications for media apps that display an ongoing notification for playback control.
- This extends to apps like Spotify, YouTube, and YouTube Music when playing content locally or casting and to apps like Netflix when casting.
The One UI 7 hype is real, as Samsung finally gets around to updating its devices to Android 15, months after the platform update was released and others got on board. As people get their hands on the update, they are spotting features that haven’t been clearly mentioned as part of the official changelog. As it turns out, One UI 7 is implementing a live notification for any app that puts media controls in the notification shade.
My colleague Zac Kew-Denniss spotted that newer One UI 7 builds (i.e., those with the April 2025 security patch) can display a live notification for any app that puts out an ongoing media playback control in the notification shade.
