Google just announced the future of Google Photos. We had heard they would be pulling the Google Photos aspect out of G+ and making it own separate app. Today they have announced just that. Later today users will be able to pick up the new app for Android, iOS and on via photos.google.com online.

With the new Google Photos, users can look forward to unlimited free storage for all your photos and videos. Your photos sill upload in 16MP quality and videos will be 1080p. At least that is what the limits are right now.

The demo that was offered really made it look pretty stellar. For instance, a simple pinch will back you out by the day, the week, the month and even the year. You will also be able to search by people, things, places and more. For instance, in photos search out Baseball and get all images that are related to the spot that you have taken. It offers a heck of a lot of additional functions besides just storing your photos. For instance, edit any and all of your photos whenever you want while retaining the original copy.

While that is all well and good, it is the new ability to long press on one image and then drag across the screen to select them all. Along with that comes the sharing options. You can, like before, quickly share a link to images or a folder, but now the receiver doesn’t need to have a Google account or login to see what you have shared.

The new Google Photos Android app will be going live soon at the following Play Store link (Google Photos) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.photos . Once we see the APK and have a chance, we will get it loaded up and shared.
