Google Photos gets a makeover with ‘Updates’ feed

Published

on

Google Photos Updates Feed

Google has made a significant change to its Google Photos app by replacing its “Sharing” page with a new “Updates” feed. Back in August 2024, the app changes the “Library” to the “Collections” tab to enhance user experience.

The Updates feed has a new notification bell icon, which is located in place of the Sharing option in the app bar, between the ‘plus’ menu and profile picture. It allows users to see recent sharing updates, including conversations and shared links.

When you click on the bell icon, it opens the “Updates” feed, which lets you access two options including Sharing activity and Conversations in the overflow menu.

The Sharing activity shows all your sharing activity in one place, which makes it easier to keep track of what you’ve shared, along with any shared links and memories. On the other side, the Conversations option displays a list of conversations.

In the old version, users could find sharing options by clicking a ‘people’ icon. The Sharing page had shortcuts for creating shared albums and sharing with partners, along with an “Albums and Memories” section and a list of “Conversations.” Now, all of this has been simplified.

The use of a new bell icon is similar to what you find in other Google apps like Home, the Play Store, and YouTube, which helps make the app feel more familiar and user-friendly.

Right now, the “Updates” feed is being rolled out for Android users, but there’s no news yet on when it will be available for iOS devices.

Quick Share adds cool new file transfer progress indicator

Published

Quick Share percentage Indicator

Google Quick Share feature on Android has received an exciting update, which adds a progress percentage indicator for ongoing file transfers. This new change enhances the user experience by providing clear visibility into the status of file transfers, mainly for larger files.

Quick Share lets users quickly and wirelessly share photos, videos, and files between Android devices and ChromeOS, as well as with Windows computers. Recent updates to Nearby Connections suggested Quick Share might be available on iOS and macOS devices.

Previously, when someone received a file, they could only see a circular progress indicator, which didn’t provide clear information about the transfer’s progress. Now, with this new update, both Google’s and Samsung’s versions of Quick Share show a percentage during the transfer process.

For small file transfers, like pictures or links, the percentage may not be very noticeable. However, it becomes mainly useful for larger files, such as videos.

This handy progress percentage indicator of Quick Share has been spotted on various devices, including several Pixel phones and the Galaxy S22 Ultra. It shows that many Android users can access this feature.

In mid-October 2024, some users noticed the update with new changes. Now, it is more widely available for Android devices.

This is a small change for Quick Share but greatly enhances the usability of the app. Users can now manage their file transfers more easily and feel less uncertain about how long a transfer will take. Overall, Google aims to make Quick Share features more user-friendly.

Quick Share coming to iOS and macOS?
