Google Adds Photos Picker To Gmail iOS
7.0
Google announced a new Google Photos picker in Gmail for iPhone and iPad that adds Google Photos to the app's Attachment menu. The picker uses the signed-in Gmail account to access backed-up albums, supports search (including album-name matches and recent searches), and allows multi-photo and video selection. The feature is rolling out server-side and requires the latest Gmail app.
Key Points
- 1Adds Google Photos picker to Gmail iOS attachment menu, enabling direct access to cloud photos and albums.
- 2Enables search, album-name matching, recent searches and multi-select, improving photo discovery and selection.
- 3Reduces app-switching and speeds composing emails for users who back up images to Google Photos.
Scoring Rationale
Strong practical value and official rollout, but limited novelty and scope confined to Gmail users on iOS/iPadOS.
