Galaxy AI Photo Editor error on Galaxy phones or tablets

When using Galaxy AI photo editing options, you may see an error message such as “To edit image, close all open editors.” This may occur if you have more than one photo editor open at the same time. For example, additional photo editing functions in apps such as Gallery and Camera cannot be opened and used simultaneously.
