Google Photos gets a new design for tablets and Chromebooks
Google always strives to keep its applications up to date, whether in terms of features or design. While applications that optimize for smaller smartphone screens pay more attention, adapting to large screens has its ups and downs. That’s why the company decided to give Photos on Larger Screens a bit of design.
Google Photos receive web elements on larger screens
After updating the application, the integration of web elements is quite visible. In addition to the change in the search engine at the top, you may also notice the relocation of the bar with individual categories.
The tabs on the bottom have been replaced by a sidebar, modeled on the web interface. It contains major categories including device photos, favorite photos, recycle bin, and more. The main gallery view also looks much better after the update. Chromebooks also have a file upload button that, according to information on androidcentral.com, opens the Files system app directly.
The Google Photos app is of great importance to Chromebooks in particular, but the company hasn’t paid enough attention to it anyway, and it’s been waiting a long time for that change, and the truth is that big screen optimization has taken the company by surprise. The Google Photos Update is now available for download in the Play Store.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that in this case, it would be good if other applications from Google were updated following the example of Google Photos, which need such an update in terms of optimization for large screens.
