Until the One UI 5.0, there’s no way to customize the folder of saved screenshots. Though, a bit late, Samsung officially brought the ability to change the folder where screenshots and screen recordings are saved, thanks to the new One UI 5.1 update.

Samsung’s One UI saves screenshots and screen recordings in the DCIM folder by default. Most users wanted the ability to customize the screenshots storage folder, and the new One UI 5.1 update makes it possible on Galaxy devices. If you want to know how to change location, follow the steps given below:

• Open the Apps Screen, visit System Settings, followed by Advanced features
• Beside the Smart suggestions, you should see the Screenshots and screen recorder tab, tap on it
• For Screenshots,
  • Tap the “Save screenshots in” option
• For the Screen recorder,
  • Tap the “Screen recordings in” option

By changing the location, you can prevent the Google Photos app from backing up screenshots and screen recordings. This is quite useful as screenshots will no longer occupy the storage of Google Photos cloud storage. However, separating them also enhances access to the DCIM folder for important images.

Recently, Samsung published a video that guides Galaxy S23 Ultra users on how to use Astrophoto and AstroHyperlapse features. The video is featured by professional landscape photographer Michael Shainblum and guides you to capture incredible night sky photos and star trail hyperlapse videos

Astrophoto

In order to capture Astrophoto using the Galaxy S23 Ultra, you are going to want a sturdy place to position your camera during the long exposure. The photographer recommends using a tripod as well as keeping a headlamp so you can see in the dark.

Now, download the Samsung Expert RAW app through the Galaxy Store, it’s free. Once your device is on the tripod and aimed at the sky, open Expert RAW. From here you can do some test shots to see if you have the right composition.

Once you’ve got the right composition, head up to the settings. Make sure you’re saving your pictures in RAW and enable special photo options. This allows you to use the Astrophoto mode, which uses advanced AI segmentation and multi-frame processing to get the best results out of the night sky.

This mode even pinpoints the location of astral bodies like planets and constellations. For duration, choose 10 minutes for the best possible results but if you do not have time, 4 minutes still works great. You can use any mode, while the photographer used the wide lens and set focus to 0.9 to capture sharp stars.

• Now, just tap the shutter button and check out how awesome these results are.

AstroHyperlapse

So what if we want to go even further and show a video of the stars moving? First, open the camera app, then select Hyperlapse mode from the more menu. Now choose UHD, set the recording speed to x300, tap on the star trails option, and finally click the shutter.

To record a video of star trails showing proper movement, an hour is the recommended recording time. Once begin, you can wait for an hour so your Galaxy S23 Ultra can capture the gradual movements of the starts in the sky. When you come back, you’ll find all of the footage has been compressed into a hypnotic short video of moving stars.
