After last year’s introduction, “Photo to video” generation in Google Photos is getting two notable upgrades today.
At launch last July and the subsequent Veo 3 update, Google let you choose from two Photo to video options after selecting an image: Subtle movement or I’m feeling lucky.
Like in the Gemini app, Google Photos now lets you use custom prompts to “describe the movement, style, or effect you want.”
The interface will also offer prompt suggestions, with the ability to edit and refine after generation.
Meanwhile, generated videos “may now include audio by default.” This was a key part of Veo 3 when it was announced last year.
This is rolling out now, but we’re not seeing it live on devices we checked this morning. Photo to video is available in the Create tab on Android and iOS alongside: Create with AI, Remix, Collage, Highlight video, Cinematic photo, Animation, and Me Meme.
All users get a number of video generations per day, with increased limits for AI Pro and AI Ultra subscribers.
