The media player widget on the lock screen and the notifications area has received a new design, featuring a waveform animation when media is being played.
All the stock apps have been improved. The stock Camera app now has a simpler UI, making changing the image or video capture resolution easier. The Weather app now has a more consistent UI design and color scheme. The built-in photo editor now has more prominent buttons to control edits, while the inbuilt video editor is now called Samsung Studio, which supports drafts so that you can continue editing videos if you can’t finish editing all at once.
A two-hand drag-and-drop gesture selects multiple files and moves them from one place to another. Samsung now allows clipping objects/subjects from images or videos and saving them to the Samsung Keyboard as stickers. You can use those stickers anytime in any other app that supports stickers.
