Realme UI 7 July 2026 Update – New Features and Improvements
Starting with Xiaobu Memory, users can now import links and files into the feature with just one tap, making it easier to save important information and access it later.
Users can now add markers, text, watermarks, and stickers while editing a Live Photo without removing its motion effect.
A new Live Photo Sticker feature has also been added, allowing users to cut out the main subject from a Live Photo and save it as an animated sticker. These stickers can later be added to regular photos or other Live Photos to create new Live Photos. Users can also apply animated outlines to the stickers.
Moving on to its AI features, the update improves the AI social media writing tool by adding online search support, richer content generation, and source attribution.
The AI social media post-generation algorithm has also been improved to reduce the template-like feel usually associated with AI-generated content. As per the changelog, the feature will now better understand publishing requirements and provide more accurate information.
Regarding private cloud storage, Device Space can now add and manage Feiniu Private Cloud NAS devices. Users will be able to check the status of their connected NAS devices directly through the smartphone.
The system Gallery has also received integration with Feiniu Private Cloud NAS. Following the update, users can view photos and videos stored on their private cloud, smoothly load images while scrolling, preview Live Photos in real time, and download the stored content.
Speaking more, the classic Smart Car screen-casting experience has been improved. Users can now adjust the interface size of Amap and Baidu Maps while using the supported screen-casting feature.
The Phone app is also receiving a new option that allows users to preview and adjust the incoming-call effect while editing a contact’s information.
Regarding its security features, an anti-fraud protection page has been added to Phone Manager. Users can view previous protection records and enable the available anti-fraud features from this section.
The update further improves transition animations while launching and switching between applications through the Recent Tasks screen, offering a smoother multitasking experience.
Also to add, third-party applications including CapCut, Wink, Meitu, QQ Mail, Xingtu, and Meituan, can now load the system Gallery more smoothly, reducing delays and blank image thumbnails.
