Google Photos is getting a major overhaul, with multiple changes on the way. Recent reports suggest that the video editor could get a sleek new interface and options to adjust playback speed. There could also be new features for easy photo sharing and a new Memories to simplify editing older shots. But that's not all.
In Google Photos version 6.94 , recently discovered lines of code hint at two upcoming search filters: Most recent and Best match . The Most recent filter, as you might expect, will sort your search results by date, showing your most recent photos first . The Best match filter will refine your search results to show images that actually match your query.

Right now, if you search for “flower” in Google Photos, you might see a bunch of images that have nothing to do with flowers. With the Best match filter, the app will cut out the irrelevant shots and show you only the photos that contain flowers.
Google isn't stopping at just the new search filters. The tech giant is also planning to make scrollable albums right in the search results. While these features aren't yet available in the current version of the Google Photos app, they'll be added in future updates.

This may seem like a small update, but it could really save time and help users find what they’re looking for much faster. Plus, this could be the beginning of more filters being added to Google Photos. We’ll just have to wait and see how it develops.
