One UI 5.0 update makes Samsung Photo Editor really advanced, check here!
Nowadays photo editing has become a trend because people like to give better look to their real photos and share it on social media accounts. Samsung also provides a Photo Editor app for its Galaxy users, so that you can edit your photos like a professional and it brings more features with One UI 5.0.
The Korean tech giant already offers a host of features and tools with its Photo Editor app so that users can easily edit their photos without having to download any third-party photo editing apps. With One UI 5.0, Samsung added new features and options to the Photo Editor app to make it more user-friendly.
Let’s see what Samsung upgrades in the Photo Editor app (mainly the My stickers option) with One UI 5.0.
My Sticker option
The My Stickers option in the stickers section of the Samsung photo editor app comes with the One UI 5.0, which is represented by a gallery icon. When you tap on the My Stickers option, a plus icon appears which allows you to select any image from the gallery and convert it into a sticker.
Once you create a sticker, the next time that sticker will already appear in the My Sticker option, you will not need to create the same sticker again.
Previously, there was a feature to select the image from the gallery which is present on the right side of One UI 4.1 /One UI 4.0 Photo Editor.
Lasso function
Samsung has added the Lasso function with One UI 5.0 to make it easier and more creative to create stickers by selecting any image from the gallery.
Now when you select an image from the gallery to make a sticker, you can see that there are 2 new options for cropping:
- Free form: With this option, you can select as much area as you want by making any shape according to you.
- Shape: This allows you to select any area of shapes including circle, square, triangle, heart, and star.
Copy / Revert option
With One UI 5.0, the company brings Copy/ revert options for stickers in the Photo Editor app.
Delete Sticker from My Sticker options
You can delete the stickers that you have created from images if you don’t like them. Just need to open the My Sticker option, select them by tapping and holding and then click on the delete option. Bye-bye, non-useable stickers.
Share your own stickers for other apps
After creating any stickers in Photo Editor app, you can also use them on other apps. Once you made the sticker, you can see it on the Samsung Keyboard my Sticker option.

Galaxy Store scrolling is the worst experience on Samsung Galaxy S23
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy and One UI 5.1 software deliver an exceptional experience on the Galaxy S23 flagships. One UI 5.1 is the smoothest Android skin of Samsung, but scrolling the Galaxy Store app is the worst experience, for some Galaxy S23 users.

According to reports, the display refresh rate drops below 60Hz while scrolling in Galaxy Store on the Samsung Galaxy S23 series. This reduced refresh rate destroys the pro-grade user experience, which is available on other, even third-party applications.
When you scroll the screen in Galaxy Store, you would face stutter (a low refresh rate) on all Galaxy S23 smartphone models. Even, you might head toward system Settings to ensure whether your phone running on Adaptive motion smoothness or not.
It’s worth mentioning that the low refresh rate support for Galaxy Store feels like budget phone usage to the S23 consumers. And probably, it might not be an S23-limited issue, as Samsung’s own app distribution platform doesn’t feel smooth on more Galaxy phones too.
There are also talks that the recent firmware update destroyed Galaxy Store’s scrolling smoothness on the Galaxy S23 series. Anyway, Samsung must look into the matter and re-optimize the Galaxy Store for the latest flagship, custom chipset, and the new One UI 5.1 software.
If you are facing the same issue on your Galaxy S23 phone, try clearing the Galaxy Store cache and user data once, followed by a reboot. It should somehow make the experience better, and as a temporary solution, we suggest you access Galaxy Store only for One UI app updates, as everything is already available on Play Store.
