Hey all, what happened to the ability to grab a still image from a video? I used to have a button in the top left when pausing a video on my S21 but it's not there anymore.

Ugh ok I didn't realize that if you're watching the video from the gallery (with that confusing series of thumbnail blocks at the bottom) you don't get the feature. You have to go to the 3 dot menu, choose Open in Video Player, THEN you get the image capture button. I really don't like the new Gallery UI it's confusing. I wish when I clicked on a video it opened in the Video Player by default
