Samsung's lens app for recognizing text, objects and places through the Galaxy camera and photos. It is safe to disable: you lose nothing most people will miss.
What it does
Bixby Vision is the Samsung app that turns the camera into a lens. You reach it from the More menu in Camera or from a photo in Gallery, and it can translate text, copy text from an image, recognize products and landmarks, and run accessibility lenses that read text aloud or describe what the camera sees. It needs a network connection for most lenses. Samsung installs it on Galaxy phones and tablets, and it only runs when you open it.
If you disable it
The Bixby Vision option disappears from Camera and Gallery. Google Lens, if installed, keeps working.
