Google has redesigned its photo editor, adding AI-powered features that were previously only available on Pixel phones.

The updated photo editor includes several AI- tools, including two AI Magic Editor and crop tools.

Google Photos is expanding the capabilities of its automatic cropping feature, "Auto Frame", which uses AI and recommend the best cropping options for photos. The new feature also fills in any blank areas in a photo. In addition, Google has added a "Reimagine" feature that allows users to add new elements to a photo or edit existing ones using prompts.

The editor also has a new "AI Enhance" feature, which creates three image options by automatically combining multiple AI effects, such as image sharpening and object removal. This allows users to choose the best result from the options.

Google Photos users can also use the editor to make changes to specific areas of an image. They can choose from a variety of options in the pop-up menu, such as moving objects, blurring the background, or adjusting the lighting.

In addition to updating its photo editor, Google Photos has also made it easier for users to share photos with others. With the use of a QR code, users can share albums with any users or post a code publicly so that anyone can access it.
