As Google this week celebrates ten years of its Photos offering, the company launched a redesigned AI-powered editor that consolidates multiple tools and features for easier photo fixes.
The new AI editor gives users suggestions to fix their images, and brings major editing tools to one location. These can be used for overall edits as well as to get suggestions or edits for specific parts of an image.
Google also announced that tools such as Reimagine and Auto Frame, which were launched as part of the AI-powered Magic Editor offering for Pixel 9, would be coming to more devices. These GenAI features will be placed near other standard photo editing controls.
Google said the new editor would begin rolling out globally to Android devices next month while iOS users will get the update later in the year.
In addition to this, Google announced an easier way to share photo albums with others. Users can now generate QR codes to let people near them easily view albums or even get photos printed. Those with the QR code can also add photos.
“Today, more than 1.5 billion people use Google Photos each month, with over 9 trillion total photos and videos stored. Every month, you perform more than 370 million searches, share 440 million memories and edit 210 million photos,” said Shimrit Ben-Yair, Vice President, Google Photos & Google One, in the post.
