About this guide
If you cannot find Samsung Internet after the One UI 8.5 update, it has not gone: Samsung renamed it. Older phones on One UI 8.0 still show the old name, according to Sammy Fans.
The screenshots are from a Samsung Galaxy A57 5G with One UI 8.5 and Android 16. Other Galaxy phones on One UI 8 use the same menus; on older One UI versions a few names and positions differ. We only looked at these screens on our phone and changed nothing.
Good to know
Samsung also offers Samsung Browser for Windows PCs; the browser showed us a banner about it.
