Take the best selfies with your Galaxy phone

If you want to give your selfies some extra pizzazz, use the filters in your Camera. They'll provide the right lighting or effects to make the picture really stand out. If you want an even easier selfie experience, use the front camera on our newest Z Flip or Z Fold. Or you can let the S Pen do the work for you on a compatible phone.

1. Open the Camera app and make sure the front facing camera is activated.
2. Swipe up or down on the screen or tap the Flip Camera icon.

You can change the viewing angle from normal to wide by selecting the icons (they look like people) at the bottom of the viewfinder.

1. To add color filters like ivory or blossom, tap the Effects icon in the top right corner.
2. Tap Filters to choose a color filter.
3. Tap Face to use some face adjustments, or tap Color tone to choose between a warm or natural tone for the whole image.
4. Tap Capture (or press the Volume buttons) to take that perfect selfie.

You can also adjust the different settings for your selfies, such as your preferred shooting method, selfie colors, and filters.

Snapping a photo of yourself can be easy, especially if you do not have to adjust the grip on your phone. Better shooting methods can be accessed from your Camera settings page.

1. Swipe to and tap Shooting methods.
2. Tap Press Volume keys to or Voice commands to take a photo or video. 
3. You can also add a floating shutter button that can be moved around the screen. If you’re taking a group selfie, it might be easier to simply show your palm to the screen to take the photo.

You can also set up automatic Camera modes that appear when launching the app.

1. Tap Settings to keep.
2. Tap Selfie angle to use your previous angle again or tap Filters to reapply the same filters you have applied in the past.

You can also select additional options such as Camera mode, Super steady, and Portrait zoom.
