Take a trip down memory lane with Google Photos' new Memories feature

Google is bringing new features to Photos that lets users relive some of their best memories. The most important new features revealed recently is called Memories and it puts photos and videos from previous years at the top of the gallery.

According to Google, these memories will be turned into personal media and privately presented to users to watch, even though they look like the stories format from social media. Memories uses machine learning to curate photos and videos that will show up at the top of your gallery, which removes the chance of having too many duplicate shots.

You can even hide certain people or periods if you don't want to revisit all of your memories. Of course, this option can be turned off completely. In the coming months, Google will add new options that will make it even easier to send photos directly to friends or family within the app.
