Google Photos now has labels under icons in Media Viewer so as you know what they mean

The Google Photos app is going to get updated soon to include labels under the icons in the media viewer, according to reports. In the upcoming update, there are no new features except for these labels that should help users understand what they stand for, better.

This new feature is already available on the new Pixel and the OnePlus smartphones and is expected to be rolled out to more devices soon.

Google had earlier integrated the Lens feature on its Google Photos app. Google Photos lets users access the gallery on their devices along with additional functions like editing and sharing these photos can also happen on the app.

Reports have it that Google is adding labels to the four options visible in the media viewer on the Google Photos app Edit, Share, Google Lens and Delete buttons will sport labels under them describing their functions once the update rolls out.

This new update is visible on Pixel and OnePlus smartphones with v5.34 of the Photos app. It should come to other phones soon as this feature is undergoing A/B testing currently, Android Police said in its report.

The main idea behind the update is to make the Google Photos app more user-friendly.

The Google Photos app was recently updated to bring in the Google Lens integration that would allow users to scan images directly from their gallery. Google Lens lets you scan images for text and other elements and also helps users search on Google to get relevant information regarding the images and texts.

Google Photos for Web is also getting a new Explore tab that groups a user's images on the basis of faces, places, and things. The app is also getting a dedicated Favourites tab in the library section. Besides this, Google Photos now lets users zoom in or out on videos by either double-tapping or pinching the screen.
