One of the staple Android gallery apps that comes pre-installed by many OEMs, the Photos app is a well-rounded app that offers most of the basic features you need to manage, edit, sort, and review your photos and videos. But things are heating up, and Google app researcher AssembleDebug at Android Authority X (formerly Twitter) has been keeping up with the latest developments, as always. The app's update to beta version 6.94 includes evidence of three upcoming features:
