- Google Photos incorporates AI-powered editing: natural commands, templates, and a "Ask" button
- Nano Banana 2 aims for a workflow with autocorrect and better control of angles and text
- Gemini is preparing links to share images without loss of quality or displaying the chat.
- Several new features are arriving in phases and with limited availability outside of the US and India.
Google's bet on the AI-generated and edited images It's accelerating with new features in Photos and Gemini.Among the most notable changes are new assisted editing options, lossless link sharing system and clues to the next generation of the imaging model Nano Banana.
For users in Spain and Europe, the The rollout will be gradual.Some features are limited to specific countries and platforms, while others will arrive server-side in the coming weeks. Even so, the direction is clear: Google wants working with images to be more Fast, conversational, and reliable.
What's new in Google Photos with Nano Banana
Google has activated the button in Photos "Help me edit"designed to describe changes using natural language: from "removing sunglasses" to "opening the eyes" of a face, with edits that rely on the private groups of faces to adjust results precisely.
In addition to text, the following are also accepted: voice to request editionsThis option is available in limited quantities (For now, only available on iOS and in the United States), with simple gestures, unique touches, and contextual suggestions that speed up common adjustments.
The Create tab incorporates AI-powered pre-designed templates to generate instant results based on popular styles, such as a professional portrait or a festive card. This feature has begun rolling out to Android in the United States and India.
In the coming weeks, Google plans to launch custom templates that use information from the gallery (hobbies, experiences) to produce unique editions tailored to each user.
Finally, the search function within the gallery gains strength with Ask PhotosSimply describe what is needed and the system Find relevant images and informationA new "Ask" button makes it easier to start a conversation. get immediate answers and, if desired, apply changes with a tap.
Nano Banana 2: More precise image generation
The preliminary version of Nano Banana 2 It anticipates a model with better control of the angle and viewpoint, as well as more faithful colorsOne of the striking new features is the ability to correct text embedded in the image. without altering the rest of the result.
The leaks suggest a phased workflow: the system plans what it will create, generates a draft, analyzes potential failuresIt applies corrections and repeats until a stable result is achieved. This built-in self-correction brings the process closer to a design assistant which delivers a more polished final version.
Testers have also detected references to the model in experimental tools (such as Whisk Labs) and mentions of "Nano Banana Pro" in confirmations and code, which points to a variant for high-resolution tasks or more demanding.
The shared examples show cleaner lines, more defined angles, and fewer typical artifacts The AI is improving the realism of characters and scenes. As it becomes available to more users, we'll see if this leap forward is confirmed. in consistency and realism.
Share from Gemini without loss of quality
Google is testing a public links mechanism To share images generated in Gemini, detected in version 16.44.62 of the Google app. The idea is to avoid the compression they undergo when sent through apps like WhatsApppreserving the original resolution.
The process would be simple: after editing with Nano Banana on the mobile device, the image is pressed and held, and then selected Share by linkWhoever receives the link will open a dedicated view with clear options for share, copy or save the image, without exposing the Gemini chat where it was created.
This approach is reminiscent of the links of Google Drive: you can send a URL that anyone can open, without downloading additional files Nor does it compromise on quality. On the other hand, it requires an extra step compared to sending directly via chat.
The deployment comes from the server side and, according to recent tests, It has not yet appeared in SpainIn some cases, opening the link still displays the original chat, confirming that the new feature is indeed new. It is being activated gradually.
Availability and regional reach
Several voice editing features and templates from the Create tab are restricted by region and platform (for example, iOS/US or Android/US and India). Others, such as Share via link on GeminiThey are released gradually from Google's servers.
In Europe and Spain, it is reasonable to expect a phased expansion with notifications within the apps themselves. Until then, it's a good idea to keep them updated and check if the button "Help me edit"The templates or the new sharing flow appear in your account.
The ecosystem of Google images It's heading towards more natural photo editing, a generator that learns from its mistakes with Nano Banana 2, and a link system for sharing. high quality images From Gemini, pieces that together mark a change of pace in how we create and distribute visual content.
