Samsung is building an app that saves and sorts your screenshots

Samsung is working on an app called Memory that saves your screenshots, shared items and voice notes in one place, then uses AI to label them. It is reportedly part of One UI 9, the software that runs on Samsung phones. Screenshots of the app were published by the site SammyGuru, which got early time with it.

How it works

Memory starts out empty. You fill it yourself. You can send items to it with the Share button in any app, or save a screenshot by dragging three fingers down the screen. You can also record a voice note by pressing the volume up and side keys at the same time.

Once something is saved, AI gives it a name, writes a description and adds tags. It also links back to the app where the item came from, so you can return to the source.

Google's Pixel phones already have a similar app called Pixel Screenshots. Samsung's version appears to be based on its own app, Collection, which is currently only available in China.

What is not known yet

• Memory has no release date.
• No price has been shared.
• It is unclear whether the app will work on every Samsung phone.
• It is unclear whether Samsung will tie it to its paid Galaxy AI plan.

The three-finger gesture will apparently need One UI 9.5. Otherwise, SammyGuru found no reason the app could not run on every currently updated Samsung phone. Android Police says a Galaxy AI subscription requirement would make the app hard to take seriously.
