Google Photos is getting a new update with which it will expand and improve its capabilities, so if you are a user of this service of the Internet giant, this information is of interest to you.

It’s true that Google Photos may have seen better times audience-wise when it was completely free and unlimited, something that ended for good over a year ago. Despite this, it is still one of the most popular services in its category, somewhat by force, because it is part of every Google account, and few users get away with swallowing the application on Android.

That being said, it must also be recognized that despite its limits or the pernicious use of everything Google produces for personal privacy, Photos is a first-class service that enjoys great popularity for its functionality and that the company is trying to improve slowly but steadily. And as an example this update, which all its users are already receiving.

As the Google blog reports, with this update already distributed first among Android users, later iOS and finally the web application, features such as memories, image slideshows or styles will make a remarkable leap forward in sharing and editing capabilities.



This is the case with memories, those photos and from time to time even videos, which the application usually highlights in the header of the same. From now on it will contain even more, presented as Tales as before, but with more videos, regardless of their length, setting some photos to music and promotion of “film stills”a feature that applies a 3D motion effect that was already present, but will become more current because… because it’s very cool, why fool yourself.

Another option for creating colorful memories from your own material is “styles”, a new feature of Google Photos that, based on templates from artists who have collaborated with Google, allows you to create a kind of scrapbook with the assistant.

Something similar happens with collage with a redesigned editor to facilitate the task and the result always very attractive. This new editor allows you to select images, design including the above styles, organize everything with drag and drop, edit images on the fly, etc. In addition, for Google One paying users, the customization options are expanded with additional designs or options.

And if you like all this and want to share it with your loved ones, what would an advertiser say, Google Photos has also improved the sharing function and in addition to photos and videos, you can share your memoriesin the form you provided them.

There you have it: whether you’re a free user or a paid user, learn how to manage your Google Photos storage to make the most of your available space. It’s very easy and worth doing.
