Tech giant Google is rolling out a new feature that will help Gmail users transfer emailed photos from their accounts directly to Google Photos.
The new ‘Save to Photos’ button, currently available only for images in JPEG format, will arrive for personal Gmail users, Google Workspace, G Suite Basic, and G Suite Business customers in the next couple of weeks.
“You’ll see it next to the existing “Add to Drive” button on the attachment and while previewing the image attachment. Currently, this is only available for JPEG images,” Google said in an update.
Now when you get a photo attachment in a Gmail message, you can save it directly to Google Photos with the ‘Save to Photos’ button.
