New Grid Customizations in Google Photos: Keep Your View Clutter-Free

Google Photos Adds New Grid Customizations

Key Features:

• Enhanced Grid Settings Page: Google Photos for Android is rolling out a new settings page for grid customization.
• Existing Options Retained: The familiar 'Stack similar photos' and layout density choices (Comfortable, Day, or Month) remain available.
• New 'Show Content from Other Apps' Option: This feature allows users to:
  • Only Show Backed-up Content: Display photos from other apps that are backed up or awaiting backup.
  • Hide Clutter from Other Apps: Automatically hide less important content like screenshots, GIFs, and memes once they are backed up.
• App-Specific Customization: Users can customize the visibility of content from specific apps (e.g., Pixel Studio, Slack, Instagram) with options to show all, hide clutter, or hide everything.
• Availability: These updates are expected with version 7.14 of Google Photos for Android, and users will see a banner notification about the new features once they become available.
