More Google Photos features
In case you haven't stopped to try the Google app, we are going to give you a brief overview of how it works. We will see the possibilities of making backup copies, different forms of creation and the use of its assistant.
Backup
When you download Google Photos, the app makes a backup copy, storing the photos in Google Drive. Then it gives us the possibility to free up space on the terminal, since the photos are available in the cloud. Once this copy is made, we can enable backup copies in the background, so that as we create new photos, the app adds new photos to this backup copy .
Creation Types
In Google Photos you can create albums, movies, collages or animations. Albums allow us to find photos more quickly, assigning each photo an era, or a theme. The collage makes it possible for us to put together several photos in a single montage.
Animations are simply GIFs that we can create by putting several photos together. We just have to choose which photos we want to be part of the animation, and create it. Keep in mind that the order of the photos will affect the final animation.
Finally, we can create a Movie. In the end, it remains as a selection of slides with music in the background. Also we can join several videos in a single movie, as a summary. In both cases, the music can be removed if it does not convince us.
Assistant
The Google Photos assistant is in charge of reminding us of all these options, as well as notifying us of those functions that we do not have very controlled. It will give us recommendations to facilitate the organization of the photos, such as adding a location.
Another option that arises is the possibility of add photos from your computer to also upload them to Google Drive from Google Photos Just by clicking In the notice, the app will send an automatic email to the Gmail account with a link to Google Photos for Windows and Mac.Thus, you will be able to manage all your photos from the same app, both on your mobile phone and on your computer.
To all this we must add the possibility of connecting the photos with Airplay. To use it, we just have to raise the lower blind and click on Airplay Duplication. Thus, you can easily view the photos on your television.
