Samsung is bringing One UI 9 to the Galaxy S24 series, adding My FanCam, AI activity records, Call Brief and expanded personalisation and accessibility features.
Samsung has begun pushing the stable One UI 9 update to the Galaxy S24 range, bringing a broader set of Galaxy AI and customisation tools to one of its most important phone families. The rollout is now reaching owners of the Galaxy S24, S24+ and S24 Ultra, with reports from SamMobile saying the update has also started arriving on the carrier-locked models in the US. Samsung’s own announcement says the wider One UI 9 launch began earlier with the Galaxy S26 series, and the S24 rollout shows the software is now moving to older flagships as planned.
A key addition is My FanCam, which uses AI to keep a chosen person centred in a video while adjusting the frame as the scene changes. That makes it easier to repurpose older clips or casual recordings into more polished short-form content without manual editing. Samsung has also tied the update to new custom brief cards, which can combine information such as weather, health and sleep data into a more personalised summary area.
The update also adds a record of AI assistant activity, allowing users to review actions and requests handled over the previous 24 hours or seven days from the security and privacy menu. That feature is likely to matter most for users who want a clearer view of how often the device is handling prompts and automated tasks. Samsung has also folded in Call Brief on supported builds, which can surface useful context on the call screen, such as calendar entries or local time for the person being called.
Beyond the AI changes, Samsung has put a stronger emphasis on personalisation and accessibility. Users can rearrange the quick panel, separate brightness and volume controls more cleanly, and place the Finder search bar directly on the home screen. Samsung Notes now includes a tape-style tool for masking or covering content, while accessibility options include text highlighting, text-to-speech support and Motion Assist, aimed at reducing motion sickness during travel. Industry reports also point to earlier test builds adding text spotlight-style tools and further input tweaks, suggesting Samsung is using One UI 9 to broaden both usability and accessibility rather than limiting the update to headline AI features.
