The Google Photos app is generally a ‘Gallery cum Cloud storage’ app, but it has many other features on its shelf for you. Google recently added a new document crop extension to the Photos app that helps you to crop images of a document into a proper document proportion.
Google Photos ‘Crop document’ is a welcome feature, as the usual rectangle or square crop option won’t help you crop documents in the correct proportion. Also, you don’t need to rely on third-party apps to just cropping documents.
Here is how to use the new Crop document extension of Google Photos app.
- Open your Google Photos app > and select an image of a document.
- Tap on the edit button > tap on the extension button (bottom right of the display) > and then tap on Crop document option.
- Using the free-hand cropping tool remove unwanted area from the image and then tap on done.
- You image is cut and straightened into a correct proportion of a document.
Not only for photos of documents, but you can also use this feature with your other photos.
Google Photos is a great app that most people use on their Android phones. The app allows users to upload as many photos and videos as they want free. The document crop feature is available with Google Photos version 4.26 and above.
