Google is experimenting with ways to make Google Photos’ search function significantly more powerful.
9to5Google reports that some users who have opened Google Photos on the web in recent days have been prompted to “Try a more powerful search.”
Existing search functions within Google Photos allows users to search by labels and tags, including user-generated labels and automatic location tagging information.
Google Photos is Experimenting New Search Tools
However, Google’s new experimental search tool allows users to make more specific search queries. As 9to5Google explains, rather than search for “sunsets,” users can qualify their search by typing “colorful sunsets.” Google Photos will then show users sunset images with many colors.
Being able to add descriptive text should make it easier for users, especially those with vast Google Photos libraries, to quickly find specific images or photos of certain people or places. Or, perhaps, even a picture of a person at a particular location.
