Google Photos has introduced a new Quick Edit sharing feature that allows users to swiftly enhance or crop images before sharing them. Initially tested last year, this feature is now being widely rolled out and is enabled by default, giving users easy access to editing tools when they select an image to share. The Quick Edit feature offers a range of options directly accessible once the Share button is pressed. Users are greeted with a preview of the image, alongside tools for cropping and enhancing the photo.
Additionally, the interface includes a Share button for convenient dissemination of the edited image. However, if you prefer not to use this feature, Google has provided a setting that allows you to disable it. This update has been implemented via a server-side roll-out, which means it is available on devices running older builds of Google Photos, specifically version 7.24. When the feature activates, it displays the Quick Edit page for single images only.
It won’t appear when attempting to share multiple images at once. For those who find the new functionality unnecessary, disabling it is a simple process. After accessing the Quick Edit interface, just tap the settings cog located in the top-right corner to switch off the feature. With advancements like these in Google Photos, users can enjoy a more efficient and streamlined sharing process.
Whether you’re looking to make simple adjustments or enhance your photos, the Quick Edit feature enhances the user experience significantly.
