Enhanced Photo Features
One of the standout features in this update is the enhancement to Google+ Photos. The new Auto Enhance feature allows users to automatically improve the quality of their photos with just a single tap. This feature adjusts brightness, contrast, and color balance to make your photos look their best without any manual editing. Additionally, users can now browse highlights from all their photos, making it easier to find and share memorable moments.
Another exciting addition is the ability to share short animations, panoramas, and more. This means that users can now create and share more dynamic and engaging content with their friends and followers. Whether it’s a panoramic shot of a breathtaking landscape or a short animation of a fun moment, these new features provide more ways to express yourself visually.
Improved User Experience
The update also brings significant improvements to the overall user experience. Hangouts, which was previously integrated into Google+, has now moved to its own dedicated app for messaging and video calls. This separation allows for a more focused and streamlined experience for both Google+ and Hangouts users.
Discovering interesting content has also been made easier with the introduction of related hashtags. When you view a post, Google+ will now suggest related hashtags that you can click on to explore more content on similar topics. This feature helps users find new and engaging content that matches their interests.
In addition to these enhancements, users now have more control over their profiles. The update allows for the editing of more profile fields and the ability to upload a cover photo. This means that users can now personalize their profiles even further, making them more reflective of their personalities and interests.
Interactive Google Offer posts have also been introduced in the stream. These posts allow users to engage with special offers and promotions directly within their feed, providing a more interactive and engaging experience.
Customization and Control
Google+ users now have more control over their streams with the ability to control how often What’s Hot posts appear. This feature allows users to customize their feed to show more of the content they are interested in and less of what they are not.
Support for displaying strikethrough text has been added, giving users more formatting options for their posts and comments. This can be particularly useful for emphasizing certain points or adding a touch of humor to your posts.
The ability to edit comments is another welcome addition. This means that users can now correct typos or update their comments without having to delete and repost them. Additionally, users can now copy the permalink of a post, making it easier to share specific posts with others.
Google+ is available as a free download for the iPhone and iPad. You can find out more information about the app over at the [App Store](https://www.apple.com/app-store/).
