Here’s what you need to know:
- Spot Your Documents: Google Photos on the web now has a dedicated “Documents” section, just like your phone app.
- Easy Access: Find it in the Library section alongside all your familiar folders.
- Organized for You: View automatic albums for screenshots, receipts, notes, and more.
Google Photos is making your life easier. Just like on your phone, you can now access a dedicated “Documents” section on the web version. This means all those photos you’ve taken of important papers, receipts, or notes are now neatly organized and readily available at your fingertips.
This new feature was recently added after some visual updates to Google Photos on the web, bringing it in line with the mobile app experience. You’ll find “Documents” conveniently located in the Library section, alongside your existing folders like Favorites, Albums, and Trash.
The “Documents” section displays a dropdown menu showcasing three of your most used document collections. But don’t worry, you can easily access everything by clicking “View all documents.” Just like on mobile, Google Photos automatically creates albums for different types of documents, such as screenshots, receipts, notes, and even recipes you’ve snapped a picture of. These albums can be set to “Archive after 30 days” to help you manage storage space.
Finding your documents is a breeze. You can simply search for “Documents” within Google Photos on the web, or head directly to photos.google.com/u/0/documents for a dedicated view. This addition reflects how people use their phones to capture important documents, and it perfectly complements Google’s vision for the future. Imagine a scenario where you can ask Google Photos a question about a document using the powerful Gemini technology (codenamed Ask Photos), and it instantly retrieves the information for you.
Google’s commitment to user convenience doesn’t stop there. Google Wallet is also rolling out a new feature that allows you to save crucial documents as digital passes, making them even more readily accessible when you need them.
So, the next time you need to refer to a receipt, a note, or any other document you’ve captured with your phone, just head over to Google Photos on the web and navigate to the new “Documents” section. It’s a simple yet powerful feature that streamlines access to your important information.
