Google has announced that it’s now added a “Quick Edits” feature that lets you edit an image as you’re sharing it without necessarily saving those changes to your library.
We’re not talking deep edits here: you’ll be able to crop or auto-enhance the image, then compare it to the unedited version before you let the photo fly. Whatever changes you make will be saved when sharing in Google Photos itself, creating a shared link, or adding the image to a shared Google Photos album. However, they won’t be saved if you’re sharing through another app like Google Messages or WhatsApp.

The option to create these edits will appear automatically when you go to share an image. If having that extra step shoved into your sharing workflow isn’t your cup of tea, there’s an option to turn it off when you tap the Settings icon on that screen.
The feature only works for images that you haven’t already edited, and “typically doesn’t appear for photos that have been edited and sorted into document albums such as receipts or screenshots.” And it’s only available in Google Photos for Android 14 and up.
