USEFUL OBJECT ERASER UPDATE

Hello there guys. Just letting it be known that the already useful object eraser in the Gallery Photo Editor has now been given the feature it always needed in my opinion. It has been a touch to remove object system since launch and could sometimes give great results at removing well defined objects from pictures but where it fell short was when asked to remove smaller slimmer less defined objects like power lines and the like. I thought to myself that this feature could become a SERIOUS photography tool if the touch to remove feature could be complemented by a draw around object feature.
 I opened my Photo Editor (the day before I received the May S21 Ultra update) to try and remove a dirty green bin that I had not noticed in a mountain scenery picture, and scrolled to the end of the tool bar and hit the object eraser and up it popped with the words that I had so wanted to see.. 'Tap or draw around anything you want to erase'.. My smiling jaw dropped..I spent the next hour going over many of my recent pictures deleting all those landscape and scenery spoiling power lines and the like... It was heavenly.. 🤣🤣
 I recommend that it is now at least having another look at this Photo Editor feature guys. Some results are okay but many are superb now!. For anyone who hasn't activated the feature in their Photo Editor just hit the three vertical dots at the top right of the screen when in the Editor to bring up the Labs option. Hit this and activate the object eraser toggle. It will now be at the end of your Editor toolbar. I hope this is not exclusively an S21 only feature though but I am sure it isn't. Happy erasing!. 👍👍

Also I love the fact you can erase multiple items in one go.

No SaucyULTRA it was installed on my S21 Ultra from the day I took it out of the box. I have heard that it is only available on the S21 series. Or at least it was but hopefully Samsung will or has extended it to other phones??..👍👍
