Google has rolled out new tools for its Photos feature, letting the users edit photos using easy-to-use adjustment sliders.

The new editing tools were announced on Google Photos' Google+ page. Users can now swipe between images while staying in the edit mode. As soon as the user moves away from the edit mode, the edits will be saved automatically and can be undone as well by clicking on ‘Revert to Original’. They can also choose a specific aspect ratio for their photos by selecting any of four options: original, square, 16:9 and 4:3, according to 9to5Google.

More impressive is the ability to jump between photos without losing any of the edit. These cropping tools will be familiar to anyone who has used the Google-owned Snapseed app, or virtually any other photo editing tool. In addition, users can still resize pictures freely.

In February, Google announced that it shutdown Picasa to shift its focus to the new Google Photos service launched less than a year ago. Pictures or videos in Picasa online albums will be automatically available in people's Google Photos accounts. Those wishing not to shift to the new service will still be able to view, download or delete photos in Picasa albums, but the software won't be updated and adding images would not be an option.

Google Photos allow users to store, organize and share an unlimited number of photos and videos. Any photos that user snaps with Android phone or tablet can automatically be uploaded to Google Drive where they are organized and can be viewed in Google Photos based on date.

Previously, Google Photos already offered basic editing tools, CNet reported. User could manually alter the brightness, color and other attributes. In addition, they can choose to apply any of a number of predefined filters. They could also crop a photo, rotate it horizontally or vertically, and angle it up to 45 degrees to the right or left. 

All changes could be applied and saved permanently or discarded by reverting the photo to its original state. Also, the user could also save a copy of your altered photo and leave the original unchanged. Google Photos was originally built into the Google+ social network, which never gained enough momentum to compete with Facebook.
