the “Search” Tab (Search) allows you to quickly search for people, places and objects, and includes the main new feature is an interactive map. In the “Library” (Library) are all the basic tools for managing media collection, including albums, favorites, trash, and archive.
Google stressed that the interactive map was one of the most anticipated features since the launch of the service in 2015. Now, if the user allowed the camera application to determine the location, his images will automatically appear on the map in the section “Places” (Places). Users can see the locations where they traveled and where did the most of frames and search by them.
