- We were able to uncover the new Google Photos extension for Gemini in the latest Google app beta version.
- The official description of the extension suggests use cases such as reminiscing about past activities and using photographic memory to recall information.
- The extension will likely function in a similar manner to the new “Ask Photos” and natural language search capabilities in Google Photos.
Last month, the Android Authority team broke the news that Google was developing a Google Photos extension for its AI chatbot, Gemini. We figured it’d be similar to the recently announced “Ask Photos” feature in Google Photos. Today, we’ve uncovered further details that shed light on how this extension could look and function.
We dug into the beta version of the Google app for Android (version 15.36.40.29) and managed to switch on the Google Photos extension in Gemini. Google’s official description mentions two main ways you’ll be able to use this extension: “reminisce about past activities like photos of first food” and “use the photographic memory to remember information.” This strongly suggests that the extension will basically use the “Ask Photos” and natural language search features coming to Google Photos.
