What the leak shows

Samsung's Galaxy Enhance-X app is set for a visual overhaul in the One UI 9.5 software update, according to Android Authority, citing findings by SamMobile. Leaked images show changes to both the photo editing screen and the app's home page.

Galaxy Enhance-X is a downloadable Samsung app aimed at camera enthusiasts. It offers AI-powered editing tools that go beyond the basic editor built into Galaxy phones.

A clearer editing screen

On the editing page, the updated app removes the pill-shaped containers that hold the undo, redo and save buttons, and adds a thicker border at the top of the screen. Android Authority notes this is a practical improvement, because the current containers partly cover the top of the picture being edited.

The redesign also drops the suggested tab and the row of suggested edits found in the current version. In their place, users get a larger thumbnail image alongside written names for each editing tool.

A faster route to your photos

The home screen changes are more substantial. The One UI 9 version of the app shows a large banner for downloading plugins, with an expandable menu at the bottom for choosing images and videos to edit.

The updated app replaces that banner with a full-screen file picker, which should let people start editing sooner. A small gallery button appears at the top, apparently for selecting files through the Samsung Gallery app. At the bottom, the app grows from three tabs to four, with a new Discover tab joining the existing ones.

Part of a wider One UI 9.5 leak wave

The Galaxy Enhance-X redesign is one of several One UI 9.5 leaks in recent weeks. Android Authority reports that Samsung Keyboard could gain two more AI tools, Bixby widgets could become more capable, and third-party apps might be able to support call recording.

Samsung has not confirmed any of these changes, so the details could still change before release. Readers interested in the redesign should wait for official One UI 9.5 announcements from Samsung.

Why it matters

Galaxy Enhance-X is one of Samsung's optional downloads for people who want stronger editing features than the default gallery editor provides. A cleaner interface with fewer obstructions over the photo could make the app easier to use for everyday edits.

The move to a full-screen file picker and a new Discover tab also suggests Samsung wants the app to feel less like a utility and more like a complete editing destination. Whether that lands well will only be clear once One UI 9.5 arrives on devices.
