What you need to know

  • Samsung is working on a new Google Discover alternative, which will launch later this month.
  • Samsung Free, which launched with OneUI 3, will soon be replaced by Samsung News.
  • The latter is nothing but a revamped version of the Samsung Free.

While most users opt for Google Discover on their Galaxy devices, Samsung Free is an alternative option available to Galaxy owners. However, perhaps in a move to take on Google Discover more effectively, Samsung is revamping the former (yet again) as Samsung News (via Android Police).

For the uninitiated, Samsung Free was first introduced with One UI 3, based on Android 11. It is a content aggregator that works similarly to Google Discover. In fact, the Korean tech giant has offered its Galaxy users to choose between either of them. This was essentially the second rebrand after Bixby Home became Samsung Daily and then Samsung Free.
