5 stars: They added search to the Add To Album popup! Someone *is* reading all those feedbacks I send!!! Easy backup of photos and videos. Nice interface for browsing photos and videos. Sometimes fails or errors out, but not too bad. Video creator is mostly automatic but I like the amount of tweaking it provides (adjusting music, filter, and titles).
5 stars: Helpful. Need an easy way to get to
4 stars: Easy to use and much improved over the years! After the oneui 7 update, the widgets have gone a bit weird and the photos don't resize to the size of the widget, if that makes sense. It's now this super narrow horizontal photo, which kind of defeats the purpose of having the photo widget! Is this a google photos issue or a software update issue?
3 stars: Mostly good and managing and editing photos easy enough. Recently experienced an issue where my entire catalog of 1000s of photos seemed to have been manipulated. I don't know if some AI program cropped the photos but it was absurd. Heads cut off, people cut out of group photos. Made no sense at all. Now I have to go through them all and restore original.
3 stars: What's happened to the HDR feature on the 'adjust' tab. It's gone! I use this all the time for improving old photos that I've backed up here. Now can't adjust the Dynamic editing.All or nothing.When I go to turn it down a bit, takes me to the 'tone' edit. This was one reason I started paying for Google One! Search tool is much less effective recently....
