The Google chatting app has generally failed. Failing on social media too. Now the company is giving chatting features to people only through Google Photos.
Google has added a new feature to its Photos app. Now the feature that shares the photos with each other has been completely redesigned. Private messaging feature has been added here.
This new feature of Google Photos will now be available on both Android and iOS platforms. Under this new feature, if you share photos with someone, then you can also send messages with it. This feature will work just as you use while sending photos on Facebook, Insta or Snapchat.
Along with sending photos, you can also start a conversation thread. Along with sending photos, you can also chat here. For this, those users also have to have Google Photos app. You can also react to the sent photos.
Using this feature of Google Photos is quite easy. Go to Google Photos app and tap on the photo and here you will get the option of Send in Google Photos. Here you will see a list of contacts. There will be most frequent contacts or you can search by sending names to send.
There will also be an option of a new group, by selecting which you can add more than one person and send photos to them. Here there will be an option to like, comment and react to the photos and you can also write with it.
Significantly, a similar feature was also introduced by Google for YouTube app. Under this, the feature of direct video sharing and messaging could be used from YouTube app, but the company has recently announced to shut it down.
Google has written in its blog post, 'This feature is not meant to replace any chat app that you already use, but we hope that it will be able to share memories with friends and family in Google Photos Will improve the experience '
