Google Photos now makes video editing much easier using AI

Video editing can often feel overwhelming, especially for those without technical expertise. Now, Google Photos seems to be addressing this challenge with new AI-powered tools aimed at making the process much easier for both Android and iOS users.

One of the main features is the AI-powered video presets, which can automatically trim clips, adjust lighting, and apply effects like dynamic zoom and motion tracking. This means that you can create polished videos without needing complex settings—perfect for those who want high-quality results with minimal effort.

Another addition is the Speed Tool, which promises more control over video pacing. So, you can now slow down scenes to highlight key moments or speed them up to create dynamic action sequences, offering more creative flexibility.

Google has also revamped the Trim Tool for more precise editing and introduced Auto Enhance, which the company says can boost colours and stabilize your footage with a single tap. These improvements, combined with a redesigned interface, put essential tools like “Mute,” “Enhance,” and “Stabilize” right at your fingertips, making the app easier to navigate and use.

These updates are likely part of Google’s broader strategy to integrate AI across its products, aiming to make advanced technology more accessible. Just a few months ago, the tech giant launched Google Vids, an AI-powered app for creating professional video content from simple text prompts.

Now, with over a billion active users worldwide, Google Photos seems to be positioning itself as a more versatile tool both for casual users and content creators.

As these features gradually roll out on iOS and Android, they could transform how people approach video editing, making it more intuitive and accessible for everyone.
