Collages Google Photos

Google Photos is one of the applications that the company pre-install on certified Android, so you should have it in yours. In the event that your smartphone is one of the few that does not have this app, you can download it from Google Play. And if you do not have Google services (in the latest Huawei, for example) you will have to find another alternative to create your photo collages from the phone.


The seven best applications to make photomontages and collages on Android

Google Photos allows you to perform a lot of actions with the images in the gallery, including the aforementioned collages. The downside is that the option is somewhat hidden:

  • Access your Google Photos application and tap on the search box.
  • You’ll see several items appear: your recent searches, people, and different categories of content, such as screenshots or videos. Click on ‘Show more’.
  • Now more options will appear: click on ‘Collages’.
  • Google Photos automatically composes: If you made any, they will be listed on this screen. But create a new collage manually click on the ‘+’ at the bottom right.
  • Choose the images you want for your collage: you can select from two to nine.
  • Google Photos will create the collage based on the selection and save it in the ‘Collages’ section. You can share the created image and edit it, although you cannot select frames other than white or the position of the photographs: Photos is the one you choose.
