TL;DR Google Photos v7.51 prepares to roll out the annual photo Recap for 2025 via the memory carousel.
Editing the recap video may require users to install CapCut for access to templates and tools.
An old feature — the floating navigation bar — has resurfaced, featuring three primary tabs and a potential fourth tab.
Google Photos is working on several upcoming features. There’s Nano Banana integration in the works, as well as improvements to the photo-to-video generator and even an AI meme generator. However, that’s not all, as the app is also preparing to release its yearly photo recap feature and is back at work on a floating navigation bar.
Google Photos v7.51.0 includes code that enables the yearly recap of photos and memories. Users will soon see a new option in the memory carousel to create a recap of 2025. When clicked, it prompts users to enable photos and video backup, and then informs them that it may take approximately a day to generate the yearly recap.
If you want to edit the recap, Google Photos will also prompt you to install CapCut, as we previously spotted.
