TL;DR

• Google Photos is testing an alternative way to access the Ask Photos feature via a dedicated button visible in the image viewer.
• We’ve also spotted code for an “outfit collection” feature within Ask Photos, though there’s still some mystery to it.

Ask Photos is a feature within Google Photos that allows you to ask questions to the service to retrieve relevant images from your photo collection. For instance, you can ask “Photos that’d make great phone backgrounds,” or “What did I eat on my trip to Barcelona?” to get AI to give you the right results for such complex queries. This feature is currently available in the US only, and can be accessed by tapping on the Ask tab in the Photos app. Google Photos v7.52.0 includes code for a new way to access Ask Photos, and we’ve managed to activate it before its launch to give you an early look.
