We repeat it over and over again, but Google Photos has long since left a simple gallery to see the photos or videos of the device. Over time it has been acquiring greater functionality thanks to the implementation of useful tools. What is coming now is the arrival of the chronology to Google Photos.
The most common users to use Google services already know that this function is not new, since it is a tool imported from Google Maps. This belongs to the synergies that Google wants to create between its products with Google Workspace, where it is trying to integrate some services with others. Although, as we already know, Google ends the unlimited space of Google Photos, so we will have to look for an alternative to transfer the photos to another platform.
The chronology arrives at Google Photos
The company has given a series of tips for vacation trips that are coming up this Christmas season that will start in the coming weeks. All of this is designed so that users have as much information as possible about the sites they visit due to the pandemic, such as hotels. In this way, it will help them to identify if the sanitary measures of the establishments they visit. Also, find out if they have protective screens, disinfectant material, capacity limitations in the common areas of the hotel, or the hostel failing that.
The truth is that Google Photos has a map integrated into its interface, where it is displayed a map where you can see where you have taken the photos that you have uploads to your system. Currently it only allows you to see the photos grouped by location, but this will change in the coming weeks thanks to the integration the chronology of your trips so that you can filter by days and thus see the photos and the itinerary that you followed to make the route given one of the photos.
