Note Assist

PDF Overlay Translation automatically detects content within PDFs and displays translated text on top of PDFs. This feature helps users quickly understand complex and challenging materials or documents in foreign languages.

PDF Overlay Translation

Users can explore their artistic potential with Sketch to image — create a simple drawing with the S Pen or by hand and watch as Galaxy AI transforms it into a completed image, adding graphic elements and colors based on the original sketch. By streamlining the creative process, users are able to focus on their ideas while Galaxy AI brings their visions to life.

Sketch to image

Galaxy’s gesture-driven Circle to Search with Google has users covered when reading signs or cafe menus in foreign languages while aboard. Even if there is a blend of languages — such as English, Chinese and French — the feature will automatically detect the language and a translation will immediately appear over the image. Circle to Search is more powerful on the Galaxy Z Fold6’s spacious display as users can improve productivity with expanded search results.
