Samsung recently released One UI 6.1.1, the latest version of its in-house user interface, for the new Galaxy Z Fold6 and Flip6 foldable phones. As it turns out, there’s a new feature recently spotted but not officially mentioned by Samsung that’s supposed to make it easier for owners of those phones to stream apps to Windows PCs.

Android smartphone owners have been able to download Microsoft’s Phone Link app for some time now. However, as Android Authority reports, after Android 14 rolled out to smartphones, owners of those phones found that every time they wanted to stream an app to a Windows PC, they had to tap the “Launch Now” button to perform the task.

With the release of Samsung’s One UI 6.1.1 update, owners of the Flip6 and Fold6 can now stream apps to their PC without having to tap that button every time. According to Android Authority, this is because Microsoft has moved its link to the Windows service “to Android’s purpose-built implementation.”

However, you still need to unlock the phone to stream an app, although the article admits that this is likely because Microsoft included this feature for security reasons.

One of the other features of One UI 6.1.1 blocks app sideloading on these phones by default, although it’s pretty easy to disable this feature.

As mentioned, the One UI 6.1.1 update is currently only available on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 and Flip6 phones. While the same update is expected to be released for older Samsung Galaxy phones at some point in the future, there have been recent online reports claiming that the rollout of this update has been delayed indefinitely. The open beta for Samsung’s One UI 7 update, which is based on Android 15, is also rumored to be delayed.
