Playstore Apps aren't cutting it anymore.

3rd Party Apps Need to start taking One UI seriously. I know in the Playstore, their designs are generalized for all android devices, and that's the problem. One UI is starting to move in its own direction with each passing major update and opting to embrace the 'one size fits all' services just doesn't feel appropriate anymore.

There's a lot of very popular apps that have a slight awkwardness and bugs in their design like Instagram, YouTube, and Spotify that aren't very fitting for how One UI functions and presents itself.

I don't know how this change could begin to play out, if Samsung has to reach out to and incentivize individual developers to start releasing 'For One Ui' apps on the galaxy store, just like they make 'For IOS' apps on Apple's app store.

Something major like that going down could heavily improve the day to day experience on the apps most people use.

It's primarily an issue of incentives. It simply does not make good financial sense for companies to pour resources into specified app development for Samsung devices, which make up 24% of US Market share, when iOS devices make up 52% of US market share.

It would have to be an investment on Samsung's part to get these versions made. All in all, a move like this would be sure to enhance user experience and boost One Ui's attractiveness in the market to the average consumer. If that's the direction the One Ui is going in, it would only make sense to position itself as a worthy competitor to iOS in the US.
