Google Photos hits pause on Gemini-powered Ask Photos search
The feature "isn't where it needs to be"
Google recently announced a major search upgrade in Google Photos, allowing you to search for specific text in your photos. Last year, the company also added Gemini-powered Ask Photos search to its photo backup service, which lets you find specific images using natural language search. Think "pictures of my dog eating on the sofa" or "me in a swimming pool." Google Photos started rolling out the smarter search experience in September of last year, but if it hasn't reached you or feels underwhelming or slow to use, there's a good reason why.
