Upon updating my phone on 2024/10/08, I have observed that the edge panel screenshot function has been removed.

 
I used this function 5+ times per day. It was easily one of the most useful tools on my phone. 
 
On the latest update, it has been replaced with some slow-to-operate, bloated AI garbage. 
 
Please give us the option to use the old tool. 
 
I don't mind having the new one as an option, but please give us a choice. 
 
This current iteration is a massive step back in fluidity for user functionality from the previous patch.

Hey Samsung,

dumbest decision to remove the old smart select, i use to boast that feature earlier to non samsung users, now i try to hide when i take a snapshot, it takes ages to take a screenshot, for godsake do your experiments by NOT DISABLING THE OLD FEATURE. pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee give back the old smart select or alteast the option to switch, this is realy bad.

I agree, I was using that feature on daily basis.

As far as I'm concerned, this AI is just massive bloatware. I don't need to wait for an animation and flashy lights so I can take a snip.

You can keep the new garbage AI select, but at least give us the option to still use the old Smart Select Edge panel.

Let me add to this and say that it's a bad move to remove the edge panel smart capture options. It was so convenient and now it's gone. Stick to what works best and don't remove beloved features.
