Galaxy S26’s Gallery app lets you find exact moments in videos
Source: Android Authority
TL;DR
- New Gallery Search on Galaxy S26 helps you find the exact spot in videos stored on your phone.
- It scans every frame in the video and matches the content against your search query.
- Powered by AI, you can use conversational search instead of specific terms.
Gallery Search
The Galaxy S26 series arrives with a strong focus on AI features. Among them, Gallery Search (translated from Korean) lets you look through photos and videos using natural‑language queries. Instead of searching by filename or location, you describe what’s in the image, and results update in real time as you type.
Video Search
What’s new is the ability to search video content. The feature analyzes each video frame and its contents, allowing you to locate precise moments. For example, searching for “tiger” versus “running tiger” will return different results, and the app will point you to the exact timestamp where the tiger is running.
