Google has had many successes and failures in its less than thirty-year history. The first are capital letters, like Gmail or the search engine itself, without forgetting Android, which is the dominant operating system in Europe. The latter are less known, not because they are few in number, but perhaps on the contrary, even if some have been heard.
One of the company’s most successful services is undoubtedly Google Photos, a cloud image storage service that, in addition, serves as a gallery app to view images on the smartphone
The company launched new functions for memories to appear in the interface itself, inviting you to view and share them. And it’s a good excuse to save lots of photos, which will later be looked at with nostalgia. There is even a somewhat hidden function that allows you to view photos randomly.
I’m going to get lucky
When Google launched the search engine, it did so with a text box and two buttons, one to perform the search and another that randomly opened a random search, making it possible to learn more about a specific topic through these results. Well, Google Photos inherited this feature, which allows you to view images from our gallery with a common theme.
To open this function you just need to Press and hold the Google Photos icon on the desktop, without accessing the app. A button will appear with the text “Chance” and, if pressed, the app’s search engine will open with a search already performed. For example, selfies taken or images of a specific location, a particular person or an event may appear.
Part of the fun is that You don’t know what you’re going to get., so we don’t know what will be seen in the images. It’s a good way to see photos you probably didn’t even remember. Of course, if you want to search several times in a row, it is necessary to close the application from the multitasking menu, because otherwise the search will always be the same.
