You can use Ask Photos, an experimental feature powered by Gemini, to search your library, ask questions about your photos and albums, and make edits.
When you search with Ask Photos, it starts by showing a page of relevant results. For simple searches like “beach” or “dog,” these results are usually enough. But if you ask something complex like “Photos that’d make great phone backgrounds,” or “What did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?,” Gemini models continue to work in the background to narrow down and highlight the most relevant results.
You can switch between the classic search and Ask Photos results at any time.
You can also use Ask Photos to edit your pictures. Simply describe the changes you want, and Gemini models will understand and apply your edits in seconds. Learn more about how to edit with Ask Photos.
Tip: This feature is still experimental, so it may give unexpected or inaccurate results. When you leave feedback, you can help improve Ask Photos for everyone.
