The feature's main purpose is to provide at-a-glance notifications, but it will also help with selfies. If a user attempts to take a photo using the more powerful rear camera on a Samsung device, Smart Glow's "Selfie Assist" option will kick in and light up when it detects their face, automatically snapping a photo a few seconds later.

Reports suggest Smart Glow will head to the upcoming Galaxy J2, which is destined for India. Samsung has yet to publicize the feature, so there's no official word on whether it will make it to flagship phones like the Galaxy Note 7 or future Galaxy S handsets.
