Google has recently launched a new feature for Google Photos called Photo Stacks which aims to streamline your photo library. This feature automatically groups similar photos together into a single stack, making it more convenient to locate specific photos.
Powered by AI technology, Google Photos identifies and groups photos taken close together within a short timeframe. Each stack is labeled with a count in the top right corner, with Google Photos selecting the most representative picture as the cover.
Benefits of Photo Stacks
- Declutter Your Library: Photo Stacks efficiently organises similar photos, reducing clutter in your photo library.
- Easy Photo Retrieval: Grouping similar photos together makes it simpler to find and view related images.
- Effortless Management: When you open a stack, you can swiftly manage its content. Customize the top pick, remove photos, or keep selected images while discarding the rest.
