Google Photos update brings additional backup option, faster sharing
Google Photos is one of the several apps that have been updated by Mountain View company this week. The application got two new features that will soon be available to all users on Android and iOS devices.
The first one concerns the backup features of the Google Photos, which have been expanded with one more option. To make it easier for users living in areas with poor network coverage, Google added a new feature that allows the app to backup photos automatically in a lightweight preview quality.
Basically, Google Photos can back up photos even on 2G connections, and they will still look quite alright. Also, you won't have to wait too long for the backup process to finish. As soon you're in an area with good Wi-Fi network, all backed photos will be replaced with high-quality versions.
Likewise, you can now share multiple photos on low connectivity by sending pictures to your friends in low resolution first so that they can view them right away. They will update to their higher resolution versions once you're in an area with stable network connectivity.
