TL;DR

RegiStar, a Good Lock module for tidying up Settings on Galaxy devices, is causing an issue for Galaxy Buds users.

It’s making the Galaxy Buds shortcut disappear from the top of Settings.

Samsung has acknowledged the issue and says it will deliver a fix in One UI 9.

RegiStar is a Good Lock module that enhances the Settings experience for Samsung Galaxy users. It allows them to reorganize Settings to their liking, set up back-tap gestures , or customize what the power button does when held down. Despite the promised convenience, a recent version of the module is breaking functionality for some, particularly those who use Galaxy Buds.

When you connect a pair of Galaxy Buds to your Samsung phone or tablet, a small shortcut emerges on the top of the device’s Settings . This makes it easier for users to access controls for their Galaxy Buds, rather than having to comb through multiple menus and submenus to find the relevant settings. However, for those using RegiStar, this functionality appears to be broken.
