Google Jumps on Timehop Bandwagon With 'Rediscover'

Google is taking a page from Timehop's book.

The Web monster on Thursday presented another, discretionary component for Google Photos that lets you secretly rediscover old photographs you posted before. The element is accessible now on Google Photos for iOS and the Web, and is taking off to Android.

By selecting in, you'll get cards in the Assistant view helping you to remember photographs from occasions you may have disregarded, including an arrangement highlighting individuals and spots from that day before.

"On the off chance that you snapped photographs on a climbing excursion this time a year ago, odds are that Google Photos will tell you," the organization said. "Also, with a lifetime of photographs and recordings in one place, you'll have heaps of recollections to think back on."

In the event that you think the memory merits sharing, you can present it on the informal community or send it to somebody particular through email. If not, no stresses: The recollections Google uncovers are totally private, unless you choose to share them.

This isn't precisely another thought. On the off chance that you need to think back about what you were doing a year prior on this very day, you could simply download Timehop to look at your photographs and redesigns from the past.

Google isn't even the primary organization to rip off Timehop. Facebook in March presented a component approached This Day, which gives you a chance to glance back at things you have shared and posts you've been labeled in on the site. To look at it, you can either scan for "On This Day," visit facebook.com/onthisday, or tap the On This Day bookmark when you see it on Facebook.
