    Do you want to try out the Galaxy S23 before purchasing it but hate going to a store nearby? Well, Samsung has you covered with its updated Try Galaxy web app. You can install the Try Galaxy web app on your iPhone to get a glimpse of what it is like to use the Galaxy S23.

    Starting today, you can install the Try Galaxy app on your iOS (web app) smartphone to get a feel of the Galaxy S23 through some of its new features and the Android 13-based One UI 5.1 interface. The app is available in fourteen languages, including Arabic, Bahasa, Chinese (Mandarin and Taiwanese), English, French, French Canadian, German, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish, Spanish Mexican, Swedish, and Vietnamese.

    Try Galaxy app is targeted toward iPhone users, now updated with Galaxy S23 features

    The app is targeted toward iPhone users. It showcases the UI of the smartphone, and you can find helpful tutorials and unique apps and features that are available on Samsung phones. You can check out the interface of the camera and some features like Nightography, Night Mode, and some editing tools like Photo Remaster. It also tries to showcase the smoothness of the phone while playing games through a video demonstration.

    The app also showcases the customizability of One UI 5.1, including wallpapers, icons, backgrounds, themes, and more. If you try using the app on your existing Galaxy smartphone, it doesn't work as the app says, “This experience was designed for iPhone users. You're on an Android already.” We tried using it on an iPhone, and the experience was fairly smooth, and you can find some screenshots below.
