Google has announced a new collection of touch-up tools for Google Photos’ image editor designed to apply subtle enhancements, refinements, or fixes to faces in photos.
The tools are gradually being rolled out on the Google Photos app globally starting today, but only on devices running Android 9.0 and up with at least 4GB of RAM. They’ll be accessible after selecting a specific face in a photo and able to remove unwanted blemishes, whiten teeth, smooth skin, and make changes to irises, under eye areas, eyebrows, and lips. The intensity of the effects can be adjusted to ensure they’re subtle enough to not be noticeable.
The new tools come less than a week after Google announced Gemini’s opt-in Personal Intelligence feature would use your Google Photos images, including of friends and family, to guide Nano Banana 2’s generation process so it produced more personalized images.
