Galaxy S22 Ultra Snapdragon.
I would not consider myself professional and I have no intention of selling photos, I just like Lightroom's Lens Correction filter. My main camera has some pretty bad distortion on the edges and LR does a good job fixing it up.
My goal is to take a photo, have the distortion corrected, and then have that file in Google Photos (Family sharing, already paid for cloud storage, etc).
Here's my current workflow.
Shoot in RAW using Samsung Pro Raw app.
Open Lightroom. It automatically imports RAW, and automatically applies the Lens Correction filter.
Select the photo and Save to Device.
Open up Google photos.
That's a lot of steps. Is there any way to set up Lightroom to automatically save / export photos it imports? Ideally steps 2 + 3 would be automated. Can Bixby routines do anything like this?
Thanks.
You could try the latest version of Routines+, part of the Good Lock package. If you don't have GoodLock available in your country there are alternatives to download like FineLock or NiceLock and get the modules from APKMirror.
The Routines+ have now a new addition called Touch Macro. I'll leave a description video below but you can find lots on youtube, it might help you

I have tried several apps but they either don't recognise the phone's camera app's DNG format or they are simply useless for other reasons e.g. always writing the output to some directory (folder) in the device filespace which one then has to move them out of.
I need something which can convert them from the SD card
e.g. 0000-0000/DCIM/Camera
to the same place.
The S7 is rooted, with SDfix etc.
I would appreciate any tips. Basically I would like an app which works with the Samsung DNG format and which has configurable in and out folders.
Android v6, not v7, rooted.
If you have RAW enabled in camera settings, the phone also stores a JPEG of the exact same photo, so no need to convert them really
Not sure about Android apps, but on PC just load them into your favourite RAW photo editor and export them as JPEGs (Lightroom for example)
Not quite... taking the DNG and processing it with say Lightroom produces a vastly better quality photo.
See e.g. here for examples

The Jpegs from the phone are over-contrasty and over-sharpened. One should never apply unsharp mask until the image is resized to the final resolution (if at all).
Yes I know that, which is why I suggestion Lightroom
Converting on the phone is not going to give anywhere near the same results as PC Lightroom
Use a PC

The real issue IMHO is that all the camera apps are mostly just control panels for the camera API. They don't AIUI get the image to play with. That is why e.g. all of them have the same contrast steps, same exposure range, etc. The JPG is done by the OS and the app gets what it gets. One camera app developer explained this to me.
Never miss a moment with Google Camera, and take fantastic pictures using features such as Portrait and Night Sight.
Features
• HDR+ - Take pictures using HDR+ to capture fantastic photos, especially in low-light or backlit scenes.
• Night Sight - You’ll never want to use your flash again. Night Sight brings out all the best details and colors that get lost in the dark.
• Super Res Zoom - Super Res Zoom keeps your pictures sharp when you zoom in—without the blur.
• Top Shot - Pick the perfect moment with Top Shot. Automatically recommends the best pics, where no one is blinking and everything looks just right.
• Portrait - Add elegant background blur (bokeh) to pictures. Google Photos can also make the subject of your photo pop by leaving them in color, while changing the background to black and white.
• Google Lens Suggestions - Just point your camera at contact info, URLs, and barcodes, and it’ll automatically suggest things to do like calling the number, or sending an email.
• Playground - Have fun mixing the real world with the virtual through AR stickers and effects!
Requirements - The latest version of Google Camera only works on Pixel phones on Android 9.0.0 and above. Some features are not available on all devices.

Hi all, this is my first post here so please be gentle
I recently upgraded to a Galaxy A52 and have been compiling all of my photo collections onto said device. Motion photos (originally taken on an S9, then stored on an A3 2017) worked perfectly fine, and now I'm trying to figure out if I can get Live Photos transferred from my iPhone SE 1st gen and converted into Samsung's Motion Photo format.
I've searched and tried experimenting for hours, but I haven't found any evidence of someone successfully making a native Motion Photo. If anyone has heard of such a tool, I would love to know.
I did find tools to extract them (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-motion-photo-extractor.3339997/), as well as some details about the file specs (https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism/issues/439).
A basic technical summary for Samsung's Motion Photos is that there is an mp4 file embedded into the jpeg metadata as binary data.
I tried my hand at making such a tool for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos on my own, using ffmpeg and exiftool. This is the flow I attempted:
1. Use Google Photos to backup Live Photos from my iPhone
2. Download them on my computer, which will give me .jpg and corresponding .mov files
3. use ffmpeg to convert and remux .mov file into correct container and codec
4. use exiftool to merge video file into jpeg file
5. copy to new Samsung phone
Unfortunately, I got stuck on the 4th step in writing the exif tags. the tags that Samsung uses are non-standard, and I couldn't find any clear resources on how I could set up an exiftool config file to do so.
I also tried downloading directly from Google Photos on my destination device, but the downloaded files are not visible outside of the Google Photos app so I cannot examine them or use them with any app other than Google Photos. I tried on a rooted emulator, and I could only find the photo portion of the file (corresponding video was not embedded and nowhere to be found). Even if this did work, it would not be a practical method as from the Google Photos app photos must be downloaded individually (no bulk option)
I've mostly given up on this and am not particularly seeking advice, rather I thought I'd share my findings and attempts as there doesn't seem to be much information for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos. Of course, if someone does know how to properly set up exiftool to write the correct tags into the image file, I will be happy to share the batch script I make to convert my collection.
--edit--
just for reference, I created this https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=12388.0 corresponding post in the exiftool forums, so if someone finds this in the future trying to attempt the same or similar thing, maybe there will be helpful replies there.

Does not seem to work this way.
I found a solution to "transfer" live photos from sn Apple to motion photo on a Samsung app:

But this does not work the other way round.
Greetings,
I was pleased to see the Mix Fold 2 does indeed have live photos as an option (the little square with triangle button on the camera). However, I can't see any way to save or export these little mini videos other than using the screen recorder.
Is anyone aware of a method to actually utilize these motion photos?
To answer my own question, backing up photos to Google Photos uploads the short video, which can then be exported back to the phone as an mp4.
