Google Photos adds a Like button for shared albums

One of the most complete gallery applications that we can find is Google Photos. The Google images app allows us to upload unlimited content with a standard quality, backup copies are created in the cloud and it is synchronized with our Google account. We can see all the photos and videos on any device that has our account. Little by little, the application has been adding new features, such as personalized albums, animations, etc. Now comes a new feature for shared images and videos, “Likes”.

That's right, now we can “Like” shared albums, pictures, or videos. As well as those who share us. To be able to use this feature we must have an album shared with another user or vice versa. You can share one in the category called “share” Also, if an album or photo is shared with you, you can see it in your email and open it directly in Google Photos. Now, you will see how there is a heart-shaped button in the lower right area, right next to the option to add a comment. If you press the heart, it will open as a kind of chat and a message will appear as you have liked an album. You can also click on the photo itself and the heart icon will appear in the lower area, next to the share, message, or photo information buttons. So you can only press if you like only that image.

The user will receive a notification

The user who shared the album, photo, or video with you will receive a notification that you liked what they sent you. Also You can add a comment and he can reply. Without a doubt, a very interesting option for those users who interact a lot with the app for work or studies. The "Likes" are appearing automatically in all users, you do not need to update the application. Check if you have the option in the last category of Google Photos.
