Sarwa, a popular UAE investing platform and app, has launched a new feature known as Sarwa Save. The latest offering is a high-yield cash saving account with several exciting features, the foremost of which is a very respectable 3% interest rate. The idea behind the account is that it will serve as a parking place for cash earned while investing and comes with zero transfer costs for AED local accounts, no account minimums, no management fees, plus fast online setup through the app.

“While we are strong believers in long-term passive investing, we are also conscious of how market conditions might affect short/medium-term goals. A short-term investing option is an important part of a good financial plan. Our clients were asking for a product to park their cash while earning returns, with the same easy access and simple experience as their Sarwa Invest, Sarwa Trade, and Sarwa Crypto accounts. As always, we listened to our community and decided to launch our fourth pillar,” says Mark Chahwan, Co-founder and CEO of Sarwa.

Sarwa’s 100,000 active users will now find it easier than ever to centralize the entire investment process in a single app, whether they’re taking a hands-off, long-term approach or prefer the convenience of self-directed trading using a single service. It’s also worth noting that Sarwa offers Save Halal, a low-risk money market funds portfolio, which also projects a return of 3%.

Overview of Sarwa Save features:

3% interest rate.
Easy online setup and access to real human support.
Zero withdrawal fees. No lock-in period.
No account minimums.
No management fees.
No transfer costs for AED local accounts.
Deep integration with Sarwa Invest accounts.
Partition and label funds to enhance saving.

Sarwa Save looks like a promising financial product, especially as the average yield on a UAE savings account currently stands at around 0.8%.

Interested in setting up an account? Sarwa Save is available to new and existing users through the Sarwa website and mobile app.

Samsung has confirmed that One UI 7 will officially begin rolling out on April 7, bringing a fresh design and enhanced personalization options. This update is tailored for a more intuitive user experience, powered by AI-driven improvements. Initially, One UI 7 will be available in the U.S. on the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Fold6, and Z Flip6 starting April 10. The rollout will gradually expand to more Galaxy smartphones and tablets in the following weeks.

Refined Design And More Customization

With One UI 7, Samsung is introducing a cleaner, more cohesive look aimed at making customization easier and more intuitive. The home screen, widgets, and lock screen have been redesigned to streamline navigation and personalization.

One standout feature is Now Bar, which provides real-time updates directly on the lock screen. Whether checking workout progress during a run or seeing what’s playing on Galaxy Buds, users can access key information with just a swipe — no need to unlock the phone.

AI-Powered Enhancements For A Smoother Experience

Samsung has integrated AI into One UI 7 to make everyday interactions more seamless and efficient. Galaxy AI helps users complete tasks with minimal app switching, while AI Select suggests relevant actions based on selected content. For instance, users can swipe the Edge Panel and tap the AI Select icon while watching a video to instantly create a GIF.

Writing Assist — a favorite tool for Galaxy users — will now offer automatic text summarization and formatting. Meanwhile, Drawing Assist provides a creative boost by generating visuals from text prompts, images, or sketches. Another highlight, Audio Eraser, allows users to fine-tune video sound by isolating and adjusting different audio elements.

Finally, Samsung has added greater integration with Google Gemini. Users can simply activate Gemini and ask, “Find Italian restaurants with outdoor seating that are pet friendly” to get instant recommendations. Natural language search also makes adjusting settings easier — users can now tap the mic icon in Settings and say, My eyes feel tired, to receive suggestions like dimming the screen or enabling Eye Comfort Shield.

Device Compatibility And Rollout Schedule

The One UI 7 update will begin rolling out on April 7, with more devices receiving it in the weeks that follow. Compatible models include the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Fold6, Z Flip6, Z Fold5, Z Flip5, and the Galaxy Tab S10 and Tab S9 series.
