Google is now offering its AI-powered editing tools in Photos for free to all users, including the Magic Editor previously exclusive to the Pixel 8. Features like Magic Eraser, Unblur, and HDR effects, among others, were previously only available with a Google One subscription or Pixel ownership. The Magic Editor, which uses generative AI for advanced editing capabilities like repositioning subjects and adjusting skies, will now be accessible on all Pixel devices, with 10 saves per month for all users on Android and iOS.
With this expansion, users can enjoy features like Magic Eraser and Portrait Light without the need for a subscription, making high-quality editing tools more accessible. The inclusion of Magic Editor on all Pixel devices and the increased availability of these features on more devices, including Pixel tablets, will enhance the editing experience for a wider range of users. While some advanced editing features may still require a premium plan, this move by Google aims to democratize access to powerful editing tools and enhance the overall user experience on Google Photos.
