Samsung is set to arm Camera Assistant with new and lost features in One UI 8.5. On the 8th, the company released the first One UI 8.5 Beta for the Galaxy S25 series, and users noticed two key camera features were missing.

The features were slated to be reinstated in the following Beta builds, but the camera moderator disclosed what’s actually coming next.

Next-gen Camera Assistant is coming

Samsung just confirmed an upgraded Camera Assistant is coming. Galaxy users on One UI 8.5 Beta will likely be able to get it on Beta 2. It won’t just bring back lost camera features but also debut a new way to capture.

Single Take and Dual Recording

Camera Assistant may bring one or two toggles to enable and disable Single Take and Dual Recording features. It will be supported on One UI 8.5 Beta 2 firmware, which is expected to be available around December 22.

Single Take and Dual Recording aren’t available in the One UI 8.5 firmware for Galaxy devices. The two features have a specific user base given their functionalities. Samsung confirmed it’s bringing both back with the second Beta.

New “Custom option for professional shooting”

Samsung moderator also teased a new “Custom option for professional shooting.” The Camera Assistant app will carry this feature as a new addition.

The camera moderator hasn’t provided detailed info about this new function. We assume it would be a new menu within the app to activate and turn off certain camera tools, like Single Take and Dual Recording.

Apart from the two, the new menu may also bring some new tools to elevate the Galaxy camera. The final testing is underway, and Samsung advised users to wait a “little while longer.”
