Google Photos adds likes and favorites with hearts and stars

The Favorite (star) button will only appear on photos in your own library, allowing you to mark an individual item as a favorite which, in turn, will automatically populate a new photo album with just your favorite photos … Meanwhile, the heart icon is Google Photos’ version of the「like.」This will appear only on those photos that have been shared with you from your family and friends … The features follow a few other changes to Google Photos announced at Google I/O, including more AI-powered photo fixes, and the promise of black-and-white photo colorization soon.
