Samsung Gallery Screenshot Generator

Drop in your own photo and get the One UI Gallery viewer built around it — Samsung's status bar, the date header, the unlabelled action row, and the gesture bar. Pick a Galaxy resolution, switch between light and dark, and export at the size the real phone writes.

One UI is not stock Android

Samsung ships more Android phones in the US than anyone else, and almost none of them look like the Pixel screenshots most mockup tools produce. Samsung replaces the photo viewer entirely, and the differences are the first thing a Galaxy owner notices:

  • The action row has no labels. Google Photos writes "Share", "Edit", "Lens", and "Delete" under its icons. Gallery shows icons alone, which lets the row sit noticeably shorter.
  • The date is the title. Gallery puts it beside the back arrow with the capture time underneath, rather than treating the date as a heading in its own band.
  • The signal indicator is four bars. Stock Android draws a solid triangular wedge. This is the quickest way to spot a Pixel screenshot passed off as a Galaxy one.
  • Dark theme is true black. One UI is designed for AMOLED and commits to it; Material sits on a dark gray.

Export sizes

Android lays out interfaces in density-independent pixels, where 360dp has long been the reference width. Each preset renders on that grid and scales to the phone's real resolution:

  • Galaxy S24 / S25 — exports at 1080×2340px (Galaxy S-series and most A-series at 1080×2340)
  • Galaxy Ultra (QHD+) — exports at 1440×3120px (Galaxy S Ultra and Plus switched to QHD+, at 1440×3120)
  • Galaxy Z Flip — exports at 1080×2640px (Z Flip main display at 1080×2640 — a taller 22:9)

One thing worth knowing before you pick: Samsung ships its QHD+ flagships in FHD+ mode by default, so a brand-new Ultra writes 1080×2340 screenshots until its owner changes the display resolution. The first preset is the right default for most people holding any modern Galaxy.

Questions

How is this different from the Android Photos tool?

That one renders Google Photos as it appears on a Pixel. This renders Samsung's own Gallery app, which looks visibly different: the action row along the bottom carries icons with no text labels, the date and time sit beside the back arrow as the screen's title, and the viewer goes to true black in dark theme rather than Material's dark gray.

What resolution does it export?

Whatever the selected Galaxy actually writes. The S24 and S25 preset exports at 1080×2340, the QHD+ preset at 1440×3120, and the Z Flip preset at 1080×2640.

My phone is an Ultra. Which preset do I want?

Most likely the 1080×2340 one. Samsung ships its QHD+ flagships in FHD+ mode out of the box, so an Ultra writes 1080-wide screenshots until someone changes the resolution in Settings. Pick the QHD+ preset only if you know that setting was switched.

Why does the clock start at 12:45?

Because that is the time Samsung's own marketing imagery shows, the way Apple's shows 9:41. Starting a Galaxy mockup on 9:41 means quietly borrowing Apple's number. Worth noting that Apple has explained its choice — the first iPhone was unveiled at 9:41am — while Samsung has never published a reason for 12:45. Change it to whatever you need; it is just the starting point.

Is the typeface the real One UI font?

No. One UI uses SamsungOne and Samsung Sharp Sans, neither of which is licensable for use on the web, so these screens render in Inter — a close match in proportion and weight, but not the same face. Everything else on the screen is an original recreation of the layout.

Do my photos get uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool runs entirely in your browser and there is no server behind it to upload to. Your images are read locally, rendered locally, and gone when you close the tab.

What would make this tool better? A device that's missing, a detail that looks wrong, an option you went looking for and didn't find — all of it is useful. Send a note.
