My screenshots are like barnacles adhered all over my organized Google Photos app.

The feature uses Gemini Nano to identify text and comprehend images in the app.
Google told Gizmodo the entire process works on-machine and doesnt require any cloud-based work.
Every time you take a screenshot, the app generates a title and summary for the image.
You could add a note to the screenshot to help the AI-enhanced search find your content.
Best of all, you’ve got the option to create categories for your various screenshots.

Pixel phones will still back up your screenshots into Google Photos, at least for now.
