As shown in a<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/nirmalsri7\/status\/1970354727646044635\" rel=\"nofollow\"> screenshot shared on Twitter\/X<\/a>, Galaxy AI looks to be adding four new categories of features.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung describes the new additions as follows:<\/p>\n<p>Meeting assist: Get real-time translation of meeting conversations and presentation screens.<\/p>\n<p>Touch assistant: Improve your reading effiency by processing the text shown on the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Smart clipboard: Get intelligent recommendations for useful functions \u2013 such as Correct, Summarize, Translate, Add to favorites, Search, and Open \u2013 when you copy content.<\/p>\n<p>Social composer: In social media apps, generate posts based on images you uploaded. In shopping apps, generate reviews based on your purchases.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond that, the folks over at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/one-ui-8-5-home-screen-ai-apk-teardown-3599988\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Android Authority<\/a> spotted that One UI 8.5 will support Gemini, Gauss Cloud, and Perplexity as AI agents through a new launcher shortcut that seems like it might replace the Google Search bar. Apparently, this would focus on concise respones to questions of no more than 3 sentences.<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, SammyGuru has spotted some app changes.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/sammyguru.com\/exclusive-samsung-my-files-app-one-ui-8-5\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">My Files app is getting a redesign<\/a> with some circular categories and a lot of Liquid Glass vibes. While the design isn\u2019t quite the same as Apple\u2019s new aesthetic in iOS 26, the shapes and placement feel eerily similar.
