Google Photos Introduces The "Show Less" Feature For Memories Personalization

JAKARTA - If you are an Android user, you most likely use Google Photos to manage, edit, and save all your images and videos to the cloud. This app has become a very powerful tool over time, introducing a variety of new features with the aim of becoming a major center for all your photo and video needs.

However, not all features in this application always provide the perfect experience. One of the features, Memories, introduced a few years ago, allows users to reminisce by bringing back old photos. Although the idea is quite interesting, often this feature actually brings back memories that may not always be fun.

Google Photos is now rolling out a new feature that gives users greater control in adjusting the Memories experience. In addition to the option to block people or hide faces, users can now choose to show less or see less of someone in their memories.

Through this option, selected people will not appear in Memories if they are the only person in the photo, but can still appear if they are in group photos.

This new feature offers greater flexibility in creating more positive memories, compared to completely blocking which may lead to the loss of valuable group photos. This option can be found in the settings menu in the Google Photos application below the Memories section. This feature is available in version 6.94.0.659749309 Google Photos, and shouldn't depend on the version of the app you have.

For those of you who want to control more what appears in Memories, try this feature to create a more enjoyable experience and suit your preferences.
