Google Photos now lets you hide content from other apps and customize what you see.
Google is rolling out a much-needed update to the Google Photos photo grid that will help users organize their libraries and hide away clutter.and others, some users are already receiving the new options, announced via a pop-up that read, “New! Keep your Photos view free of clutter from other apps.
Hide all photos from other photo and social media apps or just the clutter.” After Google has enabled the feature on your account, you’ll be able to access a new “Photos View” settings page, which expands on the current “Personalize your grid” options with four new settings, the first three of which you can toggle on or off:The second option, “Only show backed-up content,” lets you see content from other apps as long as they have been backed up to Google Photos, or are waiting to be backed up. Selecting “Hide clutter from other apps” prevents content such as screenshots, GIFs and memes from appearing in your photo grid even if they have been backed up to Google Photos. A fourth option, “Customize by app,” lets you set up exceptions to these clutter rules so you can continue to see content from your favorite apps. For example, if you want to keep images from other apps out of your Google Photos library but continue to see pictures saved from Instagram or WhatsApp, you can make exceptions for just those apps.

However, I have version 7.15 installed and don’t yet have it, so you may have to wait for Google to enable it on your account.: Google Photos is gaining another important new feature in the form of increased protection against potentially misleading AI-manipulated photos. Starting now, Google will be adding invisible watermarks to images that have been edited on a Pixel using Magic Editor’s Reimagine feature that lets users change any element in an image by issuing text prompts. The new information will show up in the AI Info section that appears when swiping up on an image in Google Photos. The feature should make it easier for users to distinguish real photos from AI-powered manipulations, which will be especially useful as Reimagined photos continue to become more realistic.Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations.
