Google Photos to soon enable ultra HDR, improving picture quality
By MYBRANDBOOK
According to reports, Google Photos will soon add support for the Ultra HDR image format, which offers a considerable improvement in picture quality. This function can be found in the Google Photos app's code strings, offers a greater range of brightness and shadow information. With Android 14, it is rumoured that the Photos app will offer Ultra HDR capabilities.
The report by Android Police via @AssembleDebug states, a few code strings related to Ultra HDR image format were spotted in Google Photos version 6.51.0.561138754. The feature was reportedly seen in late August. The code strings read as Ultra HDR disabled, UltraHdrPreviewFragment, EDITOR_ULTRA_HDR_PREVIEW, and photos_mediadetails_details_ultra_hdr. Hence, Google is being speculated to bring the Ultra HDR support to the Photos app with Android 14.
HDR or high dynamic range images, offers a better image quality than SDR, or standard dynamic range. It is said to provide a wider range of colours and brightness, which means Google Photos users will be able to see better tones and colours in images. Currently, the Photos app offers HDR image support.
The feature was previously exclusive to Pixel 7 and Pixel 6 series smartphones without a subscription. Furthermore, a new set of collage editor styles were also added on the Google Photos app. It allows users to add styles to a single photo in a collage.
