Customize Your Photos with My Filters on Your Galaxy Phone or Tablet
In the digital era, photo and video filters have soared in popularity. Samsung Galaxy devices have embraced this trend through the My Filters feature, enabling users to create their personalized filters. This innovative function allows you to capture the look and feel of your preferred photos by mimicking their colors and styles, and instantly applying these to new images. Each custom filter is conveniently saved in the Camera app for easy access in future projects. For information on the latest Galaxy devices supporting custom filters, please visit our website.
Note: The My Filters feature is unavailable in the 3:4 64MP aspect ratio setting. Its availability might differ based on your device model and software version.
Creating or Adding a New Filter
Note: Filter availability may vary based on resolution and aspect ratio settings.
If the existing filters don't meet your needs, consider creating your own. You can design up to 99 custom filters and store them on your device.
Follow these steps:
Launch the Camera app and switch to PHOTO mode.
Tap the Effects icon (resembling two stacked squares) at the top right corner, then choose Filters. First-time users may receive a tutorial.
To create a new filter, tap the '+' icon, then 'Create filter.' This will open the Gallery app for you to select an inspirational photo.
Upon selecting a photo, its thumbnail will appear. You can name the filter by tapping its current name, selecting 'Rename,' and pressing 'Create' to finalize it.
Note: Enhance your filter collection by tapping 'Download filters.'
Applying Your New Filter is Simple
Open the Camera app and choose PHOTO.
Navigate to Filters via the Effects icon.
In the viewfinder, frame your subject and swipe to select one of your new filters.
To compare, select the 'Original' filter.
When you are happy with the look, tap 'Capture' to take your photo.
To adjust or change the filter on an existing photo, open it in the Gallery app. Tap the Edit icon (a pencil), then the Filters icon (three circles) to modify the filter's intensity or select a different one. For deleting or reordering filters, touch and hold the desired filter and select the appropriate action.
Don't forget to tap 'Save' after making any adjustments.
