Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 FE as the fifth and final model in the Galaxy S25 series. The South Korean electronics giant has now started seeding the first software update for the Galaxy S25 FE, which brings changes to the Now Bar functionality. However, the new firmware doesn’t bring any new significant features, apart from the latest Android security features and bug fixes.
Galaxy S25 FE’s first update adds stock price updates in the Now Bar
Samsung has quietly rolled out the first software update for the Galaxy S25 FE in markets across Asia and Europe. As per the official changelog, the Galaxy S25 FE’s first update allows you to check stock prices without unlocking the device right in the Now Bar. After upgrading to the new firmware, stocks you follow on Google Finance with big price changes will appear on your Now Bar at the end of the trading day, as per the changelog.
Samsung first offered the stock price updates in the Now Bar for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 users. Going by the Galaxy S25 FE’s first update, Samsung will add the stock price updates in the Now Bar for other Galaxy devices in the coming weeks.
September Android security patch and other changes in tow
Additionally, the Galaxy S25 FE’s first software upgrade updates the Android security patch to the September 2025 level. Your device will now have improved security and stability. With the latest security patch, Samsung has addressed more than 80 vulnerabilities across Android OS and One UI components. Furthermore, the new firmware improves stability and reliability.
After the upgrade, the build number of the device changes to “S731BXXU1AYIB”. The size of the update is around 550MB, and Samsung has rolled it out in a gradual manner, so not all the Galaxy S25 FE units will get it right away. You can manually check for the update by going to Settings > Software update > Download and install.
