TL;DR

• Last week we spotted Samsung working on new individual zoom controls for apps on its latest foldables.
• While we found evidence in Z Fold 8 Ultra firmware code, the feature didn’t appear to be available on the phone.
• A tipster has now alerted us to the settings appearing for the new wide Z Fold 8 as a Labs option.

Samsung’s new foldables are official, and as customers get their pre-orders in for the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8, we’ve been on the hunt for new features arriving with One UI 9 stable. Late last week, we uncovered evidence pointing to a new accessibility option for screen zoom, letting you adjust zoom levels for individual apps. At the time, we weren’t sure just how far along progress was — but now we’ve finally found where it’s hiding, and have a chance to show you the feature in action.

Last Friday, we showed you the strings we discovered in a Fold 8 Ultra firmware image for per-app zoom settings. While you can easily make all your apps look bigger by adjusting zoom in display settings, so far Android has lacked the granular ability to have some apps appear more zoomed-in than others.
