One UI 6.1 Update Lets Your Phone Double as a Galaxy Tablet Webcam

Samsung recently revealed its latest software update, One UI 6.1, alongside the launch of the highly anticipated Galaxy S24 series. The update brings a lot of enhancements, focusing on artificial intelligence, camera capabilities, customization options, and productivity features. Notably, it also emphasizes improved integration with other products within the Galaxy ecosystem.

One standout feature in One UI 6.1 is the innovative Camera Sharing function, which allows users to utilize their Galaxy smartphone’s camera as a webcam for a Galaxy tablet. To access this feature, users can navigate to Settings > Connected Devices on their Galaxy S24. Once the Camera Sharing toggle is activated, the smartphone’s camera becomes available for use as a webcam on a nearby Galaxy tablet.

For the Camera Sharing feature to function seamlessly, both the Galaxy smartphone and tablet must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network, with Bluetooth and Camera Sharing features enabled. This novel feature opens up new possibilities for users engaged in video calls or meetings, offering the advantage of using the higher-quality camera typically found on smartphones. These cameras often provide superior dynamic range, increased detail, and more accurate colors compared to the front-facing cameras commonly found on tablets.

It’s important to note that the Camera Sharing feature differs from the existing ability to use a Galaxy smartphone’s camera as a webcam for a PC or laptop running Windows OS. The latter functionality is made possible through the Link To Windows integration provided by Microsoft.
