good lock is amazing and why i will continue to use samsung. the fact with theme park you can make icon sizes different and change the colour. Icon size has been my only issues with samsung phones as i feel the icon sizes are simply too big. Theme park lets you resize the size and the shape without needing to use launchers.
Yeah, Imma Good Lock aficionado lol. And you are right... having Good Lock installed prevents the need for launchers. Back then I used to always install Nova Launcher during my initial set up, but now... Good Lock has kept me on stock OneUI.
IMO, you get more out of Good Lock with a phone than a tablet.
If I'm not mistaken... Samsung recently released a module in GL to help with shutter speed, but its only for specific (latest) devices.
For me, getting rid of the status bar, having custom icons, removing the app icon labels, resizing app icons, setting the app drawer as a scrolling list, setting my own custom keyboard for colors and layout, also setting custom colors for the quick panel, custom lockscreen layout, and having separate app volumes, and multi sound that allows me to play Spotify as I record a video, and finally, setting complete custom gestures to navigate my phone are the biggest reasons.
Oh, then we got Modes and Routines. Honestly, Samsung's software is so good, I would never move to another version of Android or even another OS. "Stock" Android, (which really isn't stock), on the Pixels is just too boring and lacking for me.

How do you achieve this?
I assumed it would be in Home Up, but I can't find a setting.
Home Up -> Home Screen -> App List
Another great thing about the Home Screen option is the ability to change your home screen grid to any combination of rows and columns (max rows and columns of 7).
While your at it, get rid of the app labels for a nice clean looking home screen and app drawer.
Also, if you care to, go into task changer and choose another option for your recent apps screen. So many choices better than stock android.
For a final touch, adjust the background blur and color for when you enter the app drawer. You can do the same to your quick/notification panel with QuickStar.

Yeah, scrolling isn’t available for the App Drawer under Good Lock.. I believe its on some devices, but not available on the Fold.
Hmm, maybe it's region and/or device specific. Maybe tablets, regardless of region, don't have the option for up and down scrolling.
