Google Photos allows us to store and support our photos and videos in the cloud; However, this can become a real chaos over time, because the cloud library can be filled with repeated, blurred and countless screenshot photos.
Fortunately, Google Photos has several tools that help us solve this problem, including an easy way to eliminate the photos that do not interest us. However, a new function has become my favorite, because it allows me Organize photos of the same theme in the form of lotsBy preventing the gallery from looking disorderly.
This Google Photos tool helped me completely organize my gallery
Google Photos allows you to stack the photos to form related small groups and, therefore, have a gallery and more organized image and bookstore videos. This function arrived several months ago, but A new version of the application goes to the next level And it makes you more useful photos more useful than ever.
And so far, Google Photos has taken care of related photos under a single parameter: The application, if we ask, can stack similar photos. For example, if you go on a trip or if you are in a concert and take many photos that look like, Google Photos can organize them to stack them so that the gallery is more ordered and, therefore, it will be easier to find what we are looking for.
To activate this function, We follow these simple steps::
- In Google's photos, we click the three -point button in the upper right corner
- Then we activate the option 'Stack similar photos'
And that's it. As we can see in the images of these lines, after activating the Google Photos function Will identify the images you can stack aloneMarking the groups with a small symbol and a number (which indicates how many photos there is stacked). By clicking on this battery, we can see all the images included and select those Use the battery as “cover image”.
However, this tool is not perfect, because Google Photos will not necessarily impile all similar photos, only those you consider to do it. This means that some repeated or similar photos will continue in the gallery, but fortunately, the application has just published a new function which carries this organization at the next level.
Google Photos now allows you to stack the photos we select:
The Google Photos app has started activating a new function that allows Select by handOne by one, the photos we want to stack, and it's really useful.
It is necessary to follow these steps:
- We select the photos we want to stack or group
- Among the options, we click 'Pile up'
When creating the battery, we can select the image that will be the main one or the coverage of the battery, and see all the photos it includes. In this way, we no longer depend on Google Photos selecting the stacked images, but we can Create our own personalized lots Under the criteria we want. For example, a battery for friends, another battery for a specific afternoon or what we want. They should not be similar images. Of course, for the moment, at least in my tests, this tool seems to be available only on Google Photos for iOS, but all users on Android will soon arrive.
The new Google Photos tool allows us to select “hand” the photos we want to stack, to have a more organized gallery
This tool allowed me to take control of my gallery and order my photos. The idea is to store only what we want to protect in the cloud and prevent the gallery and our storage space from filling out with repeated or unimportant images, especially since this space is quite limited.
