Cover Screen Preview displays a live camera preview on the cover screen, allowing the person you're photographing to see exactly how they'll appear before you take the picture. They can adjust their pose, expression and position in the frame, making it easier to capture natural-looking portraits, group photos and family pictures.
Dual Screen lets both you and your subject view the camera preview at the same time. While you frame the shot on the main screen, the person you're photographing can see a live preview on the cover screen to adjust their pose, expression, or position before you take the picture. This makes it easier to work together, capture more natural-looking photos and help everyone feel confident about the final result.
Video Reframe lets you adjust the framing of your videos after you've finished recording. Rather than trying to keep your subject perfectly centered while filming, you can capture a wider view and let Galaxy AI create a new video that follows the person you choose. It's a convenient way to create polished, subject-focused videos without needing to record the moment again.
Camera Assistant gives you greater control over how your Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra camera works. Rather than changing how your photos look, it lets you customize your camera's behavior to suit the way you like to take pictures and record videos. Whether you want quicker shutter response, additional camera options, or more control over certain settings, Camera Assistant makes it easy to personalize your camera experience.
Note: If Camera Assistant isn't installed, tap Install and follow the on-screen instructions. Once the installation is complete, open Camera Assistant.
- Quick tap shutter: Take photos as soon as you tap the shutter button, reducing the delay before the picture is captured.
- Auto lens switching: Automatically switches between compatible camera lenses to help capture the best shot based on zoom level, lighting and subject distance.
- Photo softening: Adjusts the amount of image sharpening to create a softer, more natural look.
- Auto HDR: Improves photos with bright highlights and dark shadows by capturing a wider range of detail in challenging lighting conditions.
- 24 MP resolution: Lets you capture higher-resolution photos when you want more image detail.
- Prioritize focus over speed: Waits for the camera to achieve focus before taking the picture, which can help produce sharper photos of stationary subjects.
- Timer multi-photo options: Captures multiple photos automatically when using the camera timer, giving you more shots to choose from.
- Swipe Shutter button to edge: Lets you choose what happens when you swipe the shutter button, such as taking burst shots.
Note: Available options may vary depending on your device model and software version.
Note: 360 Audio Recording requires compatible Galaxy Buds and records video only.
360 Audio Recording lets you capture realistic, three-dimensional sound when recording videos with compatible Galaxy Buds. Rather than relying only on your phone's microphones, your earbuds work together to capture the sounds around you, helping your videos feel more immersive and lifelike. It's ideal for concerts, travel, family gatherings and other moments where you want to preserve both the sights and the sounds.
Note: Available features and compatible devices may vary by model and software version. Turning on 360 Audio Recording disables the Zoom-in mic feature.
