Samsung’s Gallery app is more than just an image and video viewer. It lets you edit images and videos, turn images into collages and GIFs, and remove backgrounds and undesired objects from images. You can also enable Gallery Labs — a secret menu in Gallery — to unlock additional functionality like album-entry locks and the ability to save images as a PDF.
But that’s not all. Samsung offers a Good Lock module that extends Gallery’s functionality even further. It’s called Gallery Assistant, and it can be really handy if you need to carry out batch image and video operations/manipulations on your Galaxy phone.

Gallery Assistant is a relatively new Good Lock module that adds seven new tools to the Gallery app, making it even more suitable for editing images and videos. The best part is that many of these tools support batch processing. As a result, you don’t have to repeat the same operation across multiple images and videos; you can do it all at once and save time and effort. Here are all the Gallery Assistant tools and what you can do with them.
Reduce size: As the name suggests, this tool lets you shrink images and videos. That way, they take up less storage space, and you can store them on your phone or any other storage device without worrying about running out of space. Likewise, you may find this tool helpful when you can’t upload media files to a website because they exceed the specified size. Just note that shrinking can affect the quality of images and videos.
Rotate and flip: Got a bunch of misoriented images and videos on your Galaxy phone? The Rotate and flip tool can save your day. It offers a rotate option that lets you bulk-rotate images. Simply select similarly oriented images and rotate them. Repeat the process until all your images are reoriented. Sure, it’s still some work, but it’s better than rotating images one by one. You can also flip images with this tool.
