The Korean tech giant has acknowledged the inconvenience caused by the removal of this feature and the community moderator has announced the return of the GIF screen recording function.
Previously, the Edge Panel allowed users to easily access different functions through a Smart Select panel. However, the new structure combined features for future improvements, especially with AI. Unfortunately, this change made it challenging to keep the GIF creation feature.
The community moderator has confirmed that the team is working on making the GIF creation feature easier to use within the new Smart Select layout. Because of these changes, the feature couldn’t be included in the latest update.
Samsung is now working on restoring the GIF function by the end of September. Notably, the company plans to roll it out in an app update around early October.
Along with bringing back the GIF function, Samsung will also be updating the app to make fixed functions more accessible. The company is listening to user feedback and is actively looking for ways to improve other aspects such as initial delay or area movements.
