Auto-refresh
As the name indicates auto refresh just refreshes the weather forecast for the last known location. It works when the location was turned on because you were using a navigation app.
It gives the user more frequent weather updates and makes it more comfortable for them while driving, biking, running or walking. Therefore when it is on, there’s no need to refresh the app manually which definitely makes the user more updated.
Labs
With One UI version 5.0, the Labs heading section got two new features, i.e., two new toggles linked to swipe gestures with different functions, called “Swipe for pop-up view” and “Swipe for split screen” respectively.
The latest One UI changes and additions are so exciting, including a couple of new experimental “Labs” features designed to bolster productivity and multitasking.
Now through user will be able to swipe up from the bottom of the screen with two fingers to access split view or swipe in from the top right corner to make a popup window. This can make the user handle the operation with one hand easily.
