iOS users can look forward to a fresh version of Google Photos with improved social sharing functionality and other sweet treats.
Google is giving Photos lots of love this week with fresh new features for users on all the major platforms - Android, iOS and the web. Today's iOS update allows users to change the cover photo of albums, as well as being reminded about events in the past via photo collages and more (read more about that here).
But the main focus for this release is improving the social sharing flow for Photos. Now, it's easier to share animations directly to Facebook, and if you don't fancy sharing to the blue social network, Google has implemented the ability to save animations as videos to share to Instagram, WhatsApp and more.
Other tweaks include pulling down any time to exit search, as well as some minor user interface tweaks.
Changelog
- Change the cover photo of your albums
- Share animations directly to Facebook
- Save animations as videos to share to Instagram, WhatsApp, and more
- Rediscover this day in your past
- Pull down anytime to exit search
