Samsung is reportedly working on a new app called Memory that would collect screenshots, images, text, voice notes, files and links in one place and use AI to organize them, according to SammyGuru’s first look published on November 8. It looks like Samsung’s answer to Google’s Pixel Screenshots and OPPO’s Mind Space, and the capture gestures are tied to One UI 9.5, the update expected to debut on the Galaxy S27 series in early 2027. Samsung hasn’t announced the app, so everything here is a leak. It is another early find from the software we’ve been following since One UI 9.5 was first spotted on test firmware.
| Detail | Status |
|---|---|
| App | Memory, reported |
| Saves | Screenshots, gallery images, text, voice notes, files, links |
| Gestures | Three-finger swipe down, side key plus Volume Up, Share menu |
| AI | Names, descriptions, tags, collection summaries, semantic search |
| Reported backend | Samsung’s SPAC cloud, Gemma 4 31B, Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite fallback |
| Software | Gestures need One UI 9.5 |
| Samsung confirmation | None |
The app reportedly opens as an empty workspace. A three-finger swipe down captures the current screen and saves it as a memory with a new animation, and some coverage describes it as a ripple effect, which we couldn’t check. Pressing the side key and Volume Up together starts a voice memo, and the Android Share menu sends images, files and links from other apps. A memory saved from a browser page keeps a link back to the source, so you aren’t left with just a picture.
AI does the sorting. Each item is reportedly given a name, a description and tags, and it is grouped by the app it came from, such as Instagram. You can place items in collections, such as travel plans or research, and the AI can write a summary of a whole collection. Semantic search should let you look for something by meaning and not by filename, though the report gives few details. Samsung already has a similar app in China called Collection, and Memory appears to be a newer take on that idea.
The leak also names the technology behind it. The AI work is reportedly processed on Samsung’s SPAC cloud with Gemma 4 31B as the main model, falling back to Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite if it fails. That suggests at least part of the processing happens in the cloud, but Samsung hasn’t confirmed the models, the infrastructure or how it handles privacy. The report doesn’t say how it obtained these details.
No hardware limit has been found, and nothing so far ties Memory to Galaxy AI Premium, the paid tier Samsung is reportedly testing. That doesn’t guarantee every phone that gets One UI 9.5 will have every feature. Samsung hasn’t given a release date or a device list. Other changes spotted so far include App Lock and small Clock app tweaks, and any of them may change before release.
