In Brief Google is delaying the rollout of its “Ask Photos” feature for about two weeks, Google Photos product manager Jamie Aspinall wrote on X. According to Aspinall, the product isn’t up to par when it comes to latency, quality, and user experience. While some users have access to the feature now, he said that a new version will be shipped in about two weeks, which will aim to correct these issues. Google first announced the Ask Photos feature last year at its annual Google I/O developer c

Joe Maring / Android Authority As a Google Photos user for over 10 years, with thousands of photos in my library, it’s safe to say that things often get chaotic. I regularly delete unwanted photos and try to organize them into albums, but even then, managing a library this large can still be a massive undertaking. One of the biggest issues I have is with my main Photos page often looking horribly messy. I’m someone who takes a lot of similar pictures, whether of my pets, partner, a sunset, etc

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google has paused the rollout of Ask Photos “at very small numbers.” Latency, quality, and user experience are listed as key issues. You can now use quotation marks in the Photos app to find exact text matches. Ask Photos, an AI-powered search tool built for Google Photos, was first introduced last year. Google had been slowly rolling out the experimental feature to the app, but the rollout has now been paused. It appears the feature is not living up to t

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Photos now lets you search for photos with specific words in them. You can utilize this new search capability by putting your search term in quotation marks. Google Photos introduced a Gemini-powered search feature last year to help users find images in their libraries using natural language queries. Instead of relying on keywords and dates, this feature allowed users to look for photos by describing the scene or the people in them. It even hel

Still, it has its moments -- especially when it's the only appliance around or I'm racing against the clock and my hunger is threatening to stage a coup. In those times, I'll toss in leftover rice, pasta and -- when I'm feeling particularly wild -- even meat, then offer a small prayer to the microwave gods that the food doesn't come out drier than my sense
