AI editing tools in Google Photos come to free users, non-Pixel devices

Google Photos on Android and iOS offers many useful AI-powered editing tools. However, these features are available only on Pixel devices and only for accounts that have subscribed to Google One (paid users). Well, not anymore.

Google has announced that starting from 15 May 2024, many AI-powered editing tools in Google Photos, including Magic Eraser, Photo Unblur, and Portrait Light, will be available even on non-Pixel devices and for accounts that don’t pay for Google One (free users).

Google Photos also offers an AI-powered editing tool called Magic Editor, which is available exclusively on Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. Well, from 15 May 2024, this feature will be available to other Pixel devices as well. That’s not all.

Magic Editor will also become available on non-Pixel devices, even for free users. However, those people will get only ten saves per month. If you want more saves, you’ll have to get a Premium Google One Plan (one that offers a storage capacity of 2TB and above).
