Galaxy Z Fold7/Flip7

I mostly use Google Photos, but I think there’s a bug. If you take a screenshot and tap on it while it’s still ‘floating,’ any edits (like cropping) aren’t saved, even after hitting save. However, if you tap one of the action buttons below the screenshot and edit from there, the changes do stick.

Interestingly, there’s no setting I know of to choose a default gallery app, and I’m not sure why it defaults to Google Photos. I’d be fine using Samsung’s Gallery app for quick edits, but tapping the screenshot defaults to Google Photos, which, as I mentioned, doesn’t work. If you open the screenshot manually in Google Photos, edits are saved properly.

Does this happen to you too?

I hit the pencil and then I edit and hit the down arrow seems to be working fine

Actually it's the opposite. You are unable to set Google Photos as the default gallery app on Samsung, which is my only complaint because I would actually prefer to set it as default.

Exactly, if you tap the pencil icon, it works. But if you tap the thumbnail instead (check out the picture I attached), it opens it in Google Photos (at least on my end), and any changes you make (like cropping) aren’t saved, even after hitting save.

Interesting indeed, so if you hit the thumbnail it takes you to the Samsung Gallery? 😮

Ah yes sorry I misread and likely why I didn't notice it. I either have the screenshot or hit the pencil if fixing immediately

I don't know if I have ever clicked on the thumbnail before but I just took a screenshot and when I tapped the thumbnail it gave me options on how I wanted to open it.

When i click on the thumbnail it takes me straight to photo editor, no open with option and no issues

You must have a default not set

Right. I haven't picked anything for a default. That's probably why the other poster has it opening in Google photos because that's one of the options besides gallery.
