Google Photos has come up with a smart solution for all the photography blues of sorting after a fun filled vacation. Its services now include suggestion of a new album for you, curated with just the best shots. It also entails to put together maps to add location details and describe how far one has traveled. One can add text captions to the album to describe the details and also turn on collaboration to let other family and friends add their own photos. With this new development, the most dreaded and often undone task of sifting through a collection of photos to find the best ones to upload and share comes to an end.
The users also have an option to opt out of the Google’s assistance and manually add maps, texts, and location pins to their new as well as existing albums. Intent on revamping its services, Google Photos last year upgraded to free and unlimited photos storage with the feature of automatically recognizing and grouping photos of various people, places, and things; and all without one needing to add tags. It also expanded on its services by adding support for Chromecast last year. This does seem like an effort from Google to gain more users for Google Photos. People are certainly going to be attracted towards this feature that reduces the workload to a great extent.
The novel Album experience will make the adventures easier to browse, edit, collaborate on, and share. Best shots are chosen by Google using lot of machine learning to detect the elements in a photo that make it of better quality, eliminating the duplicates. It also works by the way of detecting famous landmarks in the photos double checking them through geotagging. The feature on the offering is entirely free and will be available on Android, iOS and the web.
