As per the APK teardown of version “7.34.0.772224975” of the Google Photos app, Google is planning to release a handful of new features.

The tech publication notes that the new update will bring rounded corners to the crop tool and the updated shapes for the walkthrough, tiles, and buttons, all in line with Google’s new design language.
