GOOGLE PHOTOS ROLLS OUT SUBTLE FACE TOUCH-UP TOOLS

The new tools allow users to remove blemishes, whiten teeth, smooth skin, and adjust irises and under-eye areas after selecting a specific face in a photo. The features are accessible directly from the image editor. The rollout begins today but is limited to Android 9.0 and later devices with at least 4GB of RAM. Google is deploying the tools gradually across regions. These additions expand Google Photos' editing capabilities, which have grown to include various filters and adjustment options. The face-specific tools join existing features like Magic Eraser and real tone adjustments that Google introduced in previous updates. The company has not announced availability for iOS users or a timeline for wider deployment.
