Google Photos app adds photo grouping feature

GaryPageau ,

Android Police is reporting Google Photos gained another helpful image organization feature. Google Photos has continued to improve its machine-learning to add user-helpful features for organizing the best images. This is especially helpful today, as consumers are awash with thousands of images.

Android Police reports :

Photos now recognizes when multiple photos in your library were taken at about the same time of the same thing, and will group them together and highlight the one its algorithms consider the best.

The grouping works similarly to burst and portrait photos: only one thumbnail is shown in your library with an icon to indicate there are multiple photos inside. The “best” one is marked with a star icon.

As we recently opined, Google has taken a leadership role in photo/imaging feature race.
