Explained: How Samsung’s new AI-enhanced editing app can fix blurry images – Times of India

Samsung has been offering useful and advanced photography apps for a long time now. For example, the company’s current Photo Editor app delivers a slew of different options whereas the Expert Raw app is claimed to offer a complete RAW photography experience. Moreover, Samsung’s Gallery app also offers important editing features and options through the Photo Editor app including — Spot Color, Object Eraser and Shadow Remover. However, these features are hard to find for common users as they are buried deep in the app. But, now the company has debuted a more improved photo editing app that relies on Artificial Intelligence (AI) to fix most issues in an image with a single tap.
The South Korean tech giant has recently launched a new photography app named the Galaxy Enhance-X. According to a report by AndroidSage, the app is now available in the Galaxy Store and its listing reveals that the app uses “AI-based techniques” to offer multiple editing features with a single click.
What is Samsung’s Galaxy Enhance-X
As discussed above, Samsung’s Galaxy Enhance-X is an AI-based photo upscale app that works with a single touch. The latest app from the company is an answer to the other major image editing apps from other brands including — Adobe’s Lightroom, Google’s Snapseed, Picsart and even the in-built Google Photos’ AI enhancer.
Samsung’s Galaxy Enhance-X: Availability
As per the report, Samsung’s latest app is compatible with Android 10.0 or above. This means the Galaxy Enhance-X app can run on premium devices like the Samsung Galaxy S9 series, Note 9 series, Galaxy S10 series, Note 10 series, S20 series, Note 20 series, S21 series, the latest Galaxy S22 series Galaxy Z series, Galaxy Tab S8 series as well as on mid-ranger A-series phones. It can run even on the budget M-series and F-series handsets.

The new app is reportedly currently not available for all regions and has been offered to some selected markets including the US.
