These are all the new features of Google Photos
One of the most complete photo storage applications in the cloud, Photos, owned by Google , reaches its update 2.8 with new functions that will make the experience of uploading and sharing clouds much more pleasant and easier. Here we are going to detail all that we can already enjoy and some others that will be enabled in the coming days.
Redesign of home screens, albums and images on device
Now, when we open the Google Photos application, the first thing that catches our attention is its new carousel design of thephotos we have on the deviceo. We will not need to enter a separate section, we will simply slide the gallery until we reach the desired photo. Likewise, at the top we can see cards classified by categories: Shared, Places, Things, Videos… that we can also select by sliding our finger comfortably.
If we scroll down the screen, we will see that the albums section now consists of two columns. In this way, the application makes better use of space, especially if you are the type of person who tends to have their snapshots organized in this way. Of course, the search bar is still intact, at the top of the screen.
The section of »photos on the device» have also undergone a two-column facelift: now we will have all the differentfolders from our gallery in convenient cards, filling the space and eliminating the indentation of the previous version.

Well, soon you will be able to make a beautiful story yourself with the photos that you choose. This new option, long awaited by all users of Google Photos, can be found in the three-point menu, between the sections of "shared album" and "Movie", according to information extracted from the apk code by the guys atAndroid Police

Hopefully this option will appear soon in a new update. For now, we will have to make do with the application's automatic assistant which, it must be said, does not work at all badly.
