Samsung has announced the expansion of its proprietary One UI platform to its home appliance lineup, delivering a unified and intuitive software experience across smartphones, TVs, and now smart appliances.
As a part of this initiative, smart appliances will be receiving software updates for 7 years after launching, starting from 2024-launched home appliances being updated in September.
“By bringing One UI to smart appliances, we are transforming the way people interact with technology in their homes,” said Jeong Seung Moon, EVP and Head of the R&D Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “This consistency ensures that the experience feels natural and familiar across all our devices.”
With One UI, Samsung is unifying the user experience for the product categories of mobile devices, TVs, and home appliances through the application of consistent design elements and functionality. This includes Apps & Services like Bixby, Gallery, and Samsung TV Plus, which are being made available across various types of screens to enable seamless device interaction and media consumption.
Device Connectivity is also enhanced through SmartThings, integrating the home’s devices into a unified ecosystem with easy access to helpful services like Family Care, Pet Care, and Home Care. When it comes to Common UI, users will get the benefit of familiar interfaces like Now Brief, which deliver personalized and relevant information at a glance.
Now Brief offers family members a curated selection of useful content, including daily weather updates, family schedules, tailored recipes, and home insights such as how much time is left on the washing machine.
Wi-Fi-enabled Samsung home appliances will be eligible for software updates for up to seven years after launch, starting from models launched in 2024. This commitment supports product longevity, enhanced functionality, and prolonged security throughout the product lifecycle.
Beginning in September, eligible 2024-launched models will be receiving various software updates that bring enhancements in usability, intelligence, and security.
By expanding One UI across product lines, Samsung is realizing its vision of a cohesive, intelligent, and secure home — where users enjoy familiar interfaces, personalized services, and consistent control regardless of screen or device.
