Google Photo Creations

Surprise! Google Photos Has Been Creeping In! Are Those Mysterious Montages Messing with Your Memories? Learn how to take control of those unexpected edits and unleash the full potential of Google Photos!

Do you use Google Photos and are you familiar with the suggestions that pop up from time to time?

Google Photos automatically creates various compilations and edits of your photos, which can sometimes appear unexpectedly. Here's a list of some of the most common Google Photos creations:

• Memories: This is a slideshow-style compilation of photos and videos from a specific time period or event. Google Photos uses AI to analyse your photos and videos, then groups them together based on themes or occasions.
  
• Movies: Google Photos can automatically create short, shareable videos from your photos and videos. These movies might have transitions, music, and even themes applied based on the content.
  
• Collages: Google Photos can automatically generate collages featuring multiple photos from a particular event or location.
  
• Animations: Google Photos can transform still photos into short, animated GIFs that add a touch of movement and fun.
  
• Looks: Google Photos might suggest edits for your photos, applying adjustments like brightness, contrast, or colour balance to enhance their appearance.
  
• Discover: The "Discover" tab within Google Photos might showcase curated albums or slideshows based on specific themes or facial recognition. For example, you might see an album highlighting your pets or a slideshow dedicated to a specific trip.
  

The tip is  sometimes you don;t save the creation and then it’s gone, well… in a browser go to photos.google.com/unsaved and viola spend some time scrolling through the pages and pages of content.

Incidentally, if these suggestions bother you, you can turn them off in Settings.
