Gallery and MyFolder Labs Won't Enable

SteveInNC — Mon, 22 Jul 2024 06:19:44 GMT

Verizon Galaxy S24 Ultra Model : SM-S928U

Build: UP1A.231005.007.S928USQU1AXCB

Version: 14 All updates are current.

I have been unable to enable the Gallery Labs and now the MyFolder Labs as well. I cleared the Cache and Data in the Gallery and tried again with no luck. I promise I have been trying the proper way. Gallery >Settings >About Gallery >Repetitive tapping on Version 15.1. 03.12 I did get the notification in the Grey popup letting me know I was being a good boy then... nothing. The Labs have not shown up in both the Gallery and the MyFolder applications. I do have the Labs in the Wi-Fi and of course Advanced Features. Any ideas?

@SteveInNC To enable Labs in My Files, you repeatedly click the words "My Files" on the About My Files page. You don't click the version number.

{Edit} On my S23 Ultra I have the same version of Gallery 15.1.03.12. After tapping the version number I saw the text that Labs was going to be enabled, but it isn't showing up. My Fold 5 has the same version of Gallery and Labs IS showing. Looks like something weird is going on.

[Another update] I guess you need to click the version number in Gallery pretty quickly and for quite a while. I finally got Labs to show up on my S23 Ultra.

Woo-hoo! Just got a MyFolder update and after I applied it, everything worked as it should. Thank you @LongHiker for your suggestions.

I have the S20+, and I have the same problem. I cannot get any response from the repeated clicking method, so I have been unable to get to MyFiles Labs.

Why is it so difficult to get to the MyFiles Labs?

And why isn't there an easier way to delete those image files that are in the background for the Revert-to-original feature????
