Google Photos redesigned: Heres whats new

Google has redesigned its Photos app for relatively better management of a user’s pictures and videos. The app has also received a bunch of new features that make it easier for you to look up a particular photo, video and memories. Google Photos is used by over a billion users each month, making it one of the popular photo and video management apps that comes pre-loaded on all Android smartphones.

Google Photos redesigned: Here’s what’s new

Google Photos app icon has been redesigned and sheds its angular design in lieu of rounded corners. Google’s aim in redesigning the Photos app is to declutter its interface and offer a simpler way of storing and revisiting your pictures and videos. With the previous design, there were four tabs at the bottom namely, Photos, Albums, For you and Sharing. The redesign brings a new three-tab interface-- Photos, Search and Library. 

The primary Photos tab has all the pictures and videos but the thumbnails are now larger and the white space in between has also been trimmed down. The video clips in the Photos app now play automatically while scrolling through the library which is a nice touch for separating photos from videos. The memories carousel on top is now larger and automatically curates pictures so that you can revisit some memories. Google claims that over 120 million users view Memories each month so with the new update the app gets the ability to curate your best pictures with family, friends, on a vacation and even highlights from the previous week.

The automatic creation such as movies, collages, animations that were generated under the For you tab is also now relocated into the Memories tab. Users will also be able to hide people from memories and remove particular days from being highlighted in the carousel.

The Search tab lets you quickly find pictures based on different parameters such as people, places, things and more. There’s a new option which lets you view your pictures and videos on an interactive map. Google says the map view has been one of the most requested features and so with its addition, you can check out the places where you have taken a picture and can easily tap and zoom across different locations. The photos are automatically organised by the app, based on the location history that can also be added manually. 

The redesigned Google Photos app is rolling out for Android and iOS and should be available to you over the next week. Meanwhile, have a look at the best tips and tricks to use Google Photos.
