Google Photos is evolving beyond a simple storage app into a powerful creative toolkit, thanks to new AI-driven features. From fixing smiles and removing sunglasses to transforming snapshots into artistic portraits, Google is weaving artificial intelligence directly into the way users edit, search, and rediscover their memories. These updates not only make photo editing more intuitive but also open up playful, imaginative possibilities that were once reserved for professional tools.
These new templates are powered by Nano Banana and will help you create images instantly based on popular edits, like “put me in a high fashion photoshoot,” “create a professional headshot” or “put me in a winter holiday card.” You can simply describe the edits you want using your voice or text and watch Google Photos bring your vision to life. We’re also bringing the redesigned photo editor to iOS, so you can edit via simple gestures, one-tap suggestions and now, natural language. The feature is presently available in the US. To help, we’re adding a new Create with AI section featuring ready-made AI templates to the Create tab on Android in the US and India starting this week.
