Google Photos to get notification feed with likes, comments, and more

Google Photos will likely get a significantly revamped sharing page. Some of the upcoming Google Photos app features have been discovered in APKTeardown by AndroidAuthority.

The report indicates that Google is preparing to bring a social-focused sharing page and a helpful UI improvement to the Photos app. It would significantly enhance the app’s usability and make it even more interesting than ever.

A notification icon would replace the current sharing icon aligned next to your profile picture in Google Photos. This icon triggers a “Sharing Activity” page, which is effectively a social notification feed.

Once entered, users will have a section of likes and comments for their albums while also alerting them when someone adds photos to the album, as well as there will be a notification mechanism for group members.

Apart from this, Google Photos might also get a new meter of sorts to help you claw back more storage. It will likely be accessible when tapping a category (screenshots, blurry photos) in the “review and delete” within manage storage.

The added meter won’t play any major role in cleaning storage in Google Photos. Still, it’s a welcome move by Google as part of bringing regular transformation and advancements to apps of the Android ecosystem.
