Last year Samsung released its experimental Enhance-X app with the goal of offering AI-infused image editing on cell phones. A beta version was rolled out to Galaxy S23 phones in April, bringing these tools to the masses. But what about those with the Galaxy S22 series, it seems they won't have to wait much longer to be able to use Enhance-X.

According to the moderator of the community forum responsible for updating Galaxy cameras (via SamMobile), the Enhance-X app for the Galaxy S22 version is almost complete. In fact, the moderator said that those using last year's flagship should be able to access the app "in about 2-3 weeks" - though this timeline has not yet been finalized.

It turns out that the Galaxy S23 and S22 are not the only devices to support the Enhance-X app, either. Samsung did not reveal many details other than the fact that support for other devices, including an unspecified A-series phone, is in the works. This means that users of the mid-range Galaxy A54 will very likely enjoy AI image editing capabilities in the near future.

It is not certain when Samsung will release a stable version of this app and whether other devices will gain access to the beta version before then. We will have to wait and see how things unfold over the next few weeks and months.

As the name suggests, the Galaxy Enhance-X app is all about providing the tools needed to edit and improve photos after they are taken. The app's AI will do most of the work for you by detecting errors and flaws in your photos, such as noise, blurring, and loss of detail.

With AI tools at your disposal, Enhance-X will fix problems and improve your photos for you. You have the option of using the app's "magic button" to do all the editing automatically, or you can use a set of sliders to manually adjust your photos to your liking.

Editing tools included in the app include increasing dynamic range, upscaling to higher levels of resolution, removing shadows, correcting lens distortion, and improving focus. Samsung claims that Enhance-X can also remove wave patterns commonly seen when taking pictures of monitors and TV screens.

A hands-on with Galaxy Enhance-X shows some examples of AI tools working on the Galaxy S23.

The image is saved as a copy and will not overwrite the original. In the unlikely event that the AI goes a little crazy and overdoes things, all the photos will remain at hand. Plus, the app is still in beta, so having an additional safety net is very important.

Galaxy S23 owners can already download the beta version from the Galaxy App Store, and S22 owners won't have to wait much longer. From the sounds of things, you will just have to sit tight and be patient for a few more weeks.

It is worth noting that Google has already announced a similar tool in the form of Magic Editor. Announced at Google I/O earlier this month, Magic Editor is an extension of Magic Eraser's smart editing capabilities, allowing users to brighten images, shift the framing of photos, and remove unwanted people and objects with the tap of a button. Magic Editor will be introduced to Google Photos later this year.
