Photo editing applications have increased in popularity on Android due to their attempts are making photos standout without heavy lifting. In the recent past, more photo editing applications are embracing Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to stand out. The case is no different from Google, although photo editing is not a prime focus to them.

Google’s Photos app is getting an update that brings a new photo editing mode. In summary, the latest update adds machine learning-powered smart suggestions and intuitive granular manual photo-editing adjustments.

First, Google has added a new tab in the editor that leverages machine learning to offer photo-specific adjustment suggestions. It includes adjustments to specific features like brightness, contrast, and portrait effects. Google’s Pixel phones will be getting more adjustments in the coming months for portraits, landscapes, sunsets, and more.

Secondly, Google Photos is also bringing granular controls on its photo editing feature. If the one-tap suggestions don’t quite fit your spec, you can have more control of how your photo looks by manually adjusting brightness, contrast, saturation, warmth, and other features.

Google Photos also has a new feature, dubbed Portrait Light, that will be exclusively available to the recently launched Pixel 4a (5G)($499) and Pixel 5($699) first. Portrait Light also uses machine learning to give users more control over how the picture looks.

Users will be able to adjust the light position and brightness of their portraits, and other images, post-capture directly from the Google Photos app. The new Google Photos editor is already rolling out on Android.

Machine learning seems like the next big thing in photo-editing. Adobe which owns some of the most robust digital editing applications is also keen on the technology.

Adobe has recently teased on the upcoming AI-powered automatic sky replacement feature set to be unveiled on PhotoShop at its forthcoming Max Adobe Conference.
