In the coming months, Google Photos will add a slew of exciting features like Google Lens, Suggested Sharing, and Shared Libraries. But until then, some users have noticed that the option to only back up images and videos when charging has been removed.
Google Photos has long been able to automagically create videos from the photos and videos you upload to the service, but for Mother’s Day earlier this year Google added a feature that makes movies specifically for that occasion. Now, Google is appropriately extending that feature to Father’s Day, which is coming up on June 18th…

With just a few clicks, Google Photos can make a video based on your library to share with your mother next week (it’s coming up soon on May 14th!)…
Yesterday, a long awaited feature finally made its debut on Google Photos for Android — video stabilization. While most phones offer live stabilization, some either don’t, or just don’t do it all that well. That’s what Google’s new feature is for, and the results are actually pretty impressive.
Google Photos is one of the company’s best services by far, and it’s always getting better and better. In its most recent update, 2.13, Photos has added video stabilization for videos that have already been recorded, as well as hinting at some future features.

Google Photos has long been one of my favorite services from the company, mostly because it just works so well.

On the desktop version of Photos, it’s pretty easy to edit the time and date of a photo with just a few clicks, but that functionality has long been missing from the mobile apps. That’s about to change…

Google Photos has a smart “Assistant” feature — not to be confused with Google Assistant — which will take your photos and videos and occasionally create an artistic video, collage, or even a .gif. While it does this automatically, it doesn’t always do it with the photos and videos that you want it to. Thankfully, you can create an album, collage, animation, and movie right from the Photos app on your device.
Google Photos just keeps getting better and better. With the launch of the Google Pixel more people than ever are enjoying free and unlimited cloud storage for photos and videos with the service, and it seems Google is — as it should — continuing to improve it for all of us.

The latest update to the Google Photos app is a big one: it uses AI technology to add four new features, from resurfacing old memories to fixing sideways photos. The new features are available in the Android app, iOS app and on the web.
While your phone should recognize whether you’re holding the camera vertically or horizontally, there are times when this doesn’t work reliably. The app will now automatically detect photos which appear to be sideways and offer to fix them for you with one tap.
The three remaining new features all focus on ways to highlight memories and share moments with others …

Having a camera built into the devices we carry makes it possible to take dozens of photos every day. While these can be selfies, pictures of your latte, or pictures of your loved ones, it’s always good to know that you have your photo memories saved.
With Google Photos, you can automatically back up all the pictures you take to the cloud — but it’s also important to have all of the folders with your pictures in them turned on so that they’re protected if you ever lose your phone…
