Google Photos to let users find pics, videos using interactive map

Google Photos will let users explore photos and videos that they have taken by location using the ‘map view’
The app has received a new simplified UI with three tabs structure, Photos, Search and Library. The Photos is the main tab which contains all your photos and videos with larger thumbnails, auto-playing videos, and less white space between photos while the Search tab has now front and centre to give you quick access to the people, places, and things.
David Lieb, product lead for Google Photos in a Google blog said, “A lot of people really love the product and the reason they love it is a little bit different than what we initially designed it for. The thing they really love it for is this idea of nostalgia, and reminiscing, and looking back on your photos. So in this redesign, we decided to really lean into that. We think in the long run, that is the unique, durable value of Google Photos”
There is also a new interactive map view which will be visible as part of the new search tab. Also, Memories introduced by Google last year has become one of the most popular features, with more than 120 million people viewing Memories every month.
This new layout will be rolled out in the next week for both Android and iOS devices.
