Google Photos brings its virtual closet to iPhones
The feature builds a wardrobe out of a user's own photos, and is now in the United States, Brazil and India on both Android and iOS.
Google Photos has opened its virtual closet to iOS users in the United States, Brazil and India, TechCrunch reported on Thursday. The feature sorts clothes out of a user's own photos into a wardrobe that can be filtered by tops, bottoms and jewellery, then rearranged into outfits.
The tool reached Android users in June, according to the report, so this is the rollout catching up rather than a new feature. Google said the clothing data "is not being shared with third parties, like retailers". That is the company's own account of where the data goes.
Alongside it Google is adding Gemini Spark, which edits and shares photos from a single prompt and requires a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription in the United States. An Android-only set of filters called Moods imitates 35mm film and the look of 2000s digital cameras.
The markup tool also gains a redacting pen that blurs sensitive parts of an image, with thickness sliders and more fonts. The report did not say when the closet reaches countries outside the three named, or whether the Gemini Spark subscription requirement will change.
