SAMSUNG owners have received a raft of new camera and picture editing perks for free thanks to the latest big Android update.
The One UI 6 update – also known as Android 14 for other models – brings a host of new camera and photo editing features, but not all of them are built into the default camera or gallery apps.
Many of the new features are hiding inside the Samsung-exclusive app Galaxy Enhance-X, which has injected artificial intelligence (AI) into the art of editing snaps.
While Galaxy Enhance-X initially launched last year, the hefty One UI 6 update means the app is bursting with new features.
A list of the fresh perks arriving with One UI 6:
The app can also remove unwanted shadows and fix pictures taken from digital displays where lines appear.
With One UI 6, Samsung is also extending support for the Galaxy Enhance-X app to Galaxy A smartphones, starting with the Galaxy A53 and Galaxy A54, according to SamMobile.
Support may reportedly be extended to Galaxy A34 and Galaxy A33 owners, though Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed this move.
To download Galaxy Enhance-X and all its new bells and whistles, you must first install Samsung’s One UI 6 update.
Galaxy A53 owners will be able to download Galaxy Enhance-X once their phone receives the One UI 6 update.
If you’re unsure if your phone is compatible with the app, simply try searching it in the app store.
If it appears, then you can download it.
It’s important to note that he app could take some time to become accessible to everyone even if their Galaxy A54 is already running Android 14.
So, be sure to check again later if you can’t find it in Samsung’s app store right away.
One UI 6 may not be available to download for your device just yet, either.
Check this list to see when your Samsung device will receive the One UI 6 update.
Beyond a new camera perks, the One UI 6.0 update features a raft of other highlights.
A new button layout has brought along dedicated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth icons to the top of the screen for easy access.
Samsung owners (and millions of other Android fans) will also be able to reposition the clock on their Lock screen for added customisation.
There’s a more “stylish and modern” default font, according to experts at SamMobile, that can be selected in Settings.
Pop-up windows will stay open when you navigate over to the Recents screen, so users can pick up where they left off.
Samsung owners can also enjoy a new weather widget with enhanced illustrations alongside more information about snowfall, atmospheric pressure and moon phases.
The camera app is gaining custom widgets to choose from, more alignment options for watermarks, easier video sizing options, quality optimisation and a new Auto FPS setting for brighter videos.
While the gallery has been tweaked to allow for quicker edits in detail view and the ability to ave clipped images and stickers.
