  • The Google Photos app now shows you which albums a picture or video belongs to on the information page.
  • Though not mentioned in the description, the handy feature was added in the most recent update.
  • The feature has been available in the web version of Google Photos for some time.

Now and again, an app adds a feature that makes so much sense that it’s hard to believe it wasn’t there before. That was the feeling we had today when we discovered what came in the most recent Google Photos update. When viewing the information section of a photo or video, you’ll now be shown which albums it’s in.

Our attention was drawn to this update by an X post of user Artem Russakovskii, and we have since verified it ourselves. The responses to the post suggest that this was a long-awaited feature for some users.
