Google Photos wants you to know exactly what its video presets do (APK teardown)
  • Last fall, Photos added new editing presets for video effects.
  • These presets are all labeled by name and assigned icons.
  • Photos is working on replacing those icons with sort, illustrative video clips.

Google Photos is much more than just a convenient gallery, and the app hooks users up with a whole suite of basic editing tools. While the bulk of those are for working with still images, like the flip tool we just saw the app pick up, there’s also a growing selection of video editing tools. Google just introduced a handful of new ones last fall, and now we’re uncovering one way that Photos could be trying to make those options a little more accessible.
