Samsung's latest so-called AI phones are supposed to empower users by removing friction in user-phone interactions. Samsung wants your Galaxy phone to leverage your data for deduction and figure out what you want. Generative AI also helps you create and edit photos, and more. But what about vibe coding, or asking the AI to code applications for you?
None of Samsung's AI-powered tools are capable of performing those types of advanced tasks. At least, not yet. Samsung hasn't ruled out the possibility that future Galaxy phones may allow people to code using AI. On the contrary, Mobile eXperience COO Won-Joon Choi recently said Samsung is looking into it.
Vibe coding is the practice of telling an AI what app or service you want to build and letting the AI do the coding for you. Vibe coding is gaining more popularity as Gen AI models improve.
In a recent interview, Choi said users are currently limited to premade tools, but vibe coding could allow them to customize apps exactly as they need.
So vibe coding is very interesting, and something we’re looking into.
For many years now, Galaxy phone users have had access to a robust built-in “If This Then That” programming platform, if you can call it that, i.e., Modes & Routines. With a bit of tweaking, Routines can create new ways for your devices to interact with you.
However, while Routines let users trigger predefined tasks at set times or in specific scenarios, vibe coding could let users dig under the hood, modify app behavior, or even update code themselves.
It’s a vision that one day could give users deeply personal and personalized experiences, though it’s likely years away from materializing. Still, it’s a compelling glimpse of what Samsung’s AI ambitions might eventually enable.
Right now, the Galaxy S26 is the most advanced Galaxy AI phone on the market. It introduces a handful of new and upgraded Galaxy AI features, but Samsung isn't slowing down. One UI 8.5 will bring at least some of these new features to more phones, and the Galaxy AI platform itself will continue to evolve. One day, it might even include a vibe coding component.
