Samsung has begun rolling out the One UI 6.1.1 update for its Galaxy S24 series in South Korea, introducing a host of new Galaxy AI features designed to enhance user experience and productivity.
This update brings with it a suite of advanced Galaxy AI tools and creative options that were first seen in the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.
Transform Sketches into Stunning Art
One of the standout features of the new update is the ability to transform simple sketches into stunning artworks. Using Galaxy AI, users can draw their ideas and then choose from various artistic styles to turn their sketches into beautiful creations. This feature is integrated across several Samsung apps, including Samsung Notes, Photo Editor, Air Command, Smart Select, and Edge Panel.
Unique AI-Generated Portrait Styles
The update also includes unique AI-generated photo styles that allow users to apply artistic effects to their own portraits as well as those of others. This new functionality enables a fresh way to personalize and enhance photographs.
Enhanced Writing Capabilities with Samsung Keyboard
Samsung Keyboard now supports a feature that completes text with minimal input. By typing short sentences or keywords, the keyboard can automatically generate full text in appropriate styles for different contexts, including emails and social media.
Real-Time Call Translation Across Apps
The One UI 6.1.1 update expands real-time translation capabilities to multiple voice call apps beyond just Samsung Phone. Users can now translate calls in Google Meet, WhatsApp, and KakaoTalk. A dedicated button in the quick settings makes it easy to activate translation during calls.
Comprehensive Text Translation in Images
When browsing web pages in Samsung Internet, users can now view translated content, including text embedded in images, without needing separate translations. This feature provides a seamless reading experience.
Live Interpretation Listening Mode
The new listening mode in One UI 6.1.1 allows users to view real-time translations of foreign languages during lectures or presentations, enhancing comprehension and accessibility.
Voice Recording with Instant Text Conversion
Users can now record voice memos while taking notes, with the audio automatically converted into text. This text can be edited, pasted into notes, or summarized directly within the app.
Direct PDF File Summarization and Translation
The update introduces features for summarizing and translating PDF files without the need to convert them into note files first. This allows for more efficient handling of PDF documents.
Automatic Language Detection for Voice Recordings
One UI 6.1.1 also enhances voice recording capabilities by automatically detecting the language of recorded audio and converting it into text. Users can edit this text and manage unwanted segments easily.
Dynamic Backgrounds Reflecting Weather and Time
The update adds special backgrounds that change according to weather conditions and time of day at the set location. Whether it’s snowing or sunny, your photos will dynamically reflect these changes.
Creative Enhancements for Photos and Videos
The update offers new tools for creating lively images and videos. Users can apply live effects to static photos to make them more dynamic, save and share slow-motion clips from videos, and create custom stickers and GIFs from motion photos.
Effortless Cropping and Sticker Creation
Finally, the update simplifies photo editing by allowing users to quickly crop specific people or objects from images with a simple press and hold action. Cropped elements can be turned into stickers or pasted directly where needed.
With these innovative features, the One UI 6.1.1 update aims to provide Galaxy S24 users with enhanced creative options, improved productivity tools, and a more personalized experience.
