Google Updates Messages App with New Camera Icon for Quick Photo Sharing

Google has added a new camera icon to the Messages by Google app bar, making it easier and faster for users to share photos with their contacts. The update is currently rolling out to users globally, and is expected to be available to everyone in the next few weeks.

The new camera icon is available in the latest version of the Messages app, which is version 10.1.0. You can download the update from the Google Play Store.

How to use the new camera icon in Messages

1. Open the Messages app.
2. Tap on the conversation that you want to share a photo with.
3. Tap on the camera icon next to the text input field.
4. Take a photo or video.
5. Edit the photo or video, if desired.
6. Tap the send button to send the photo or video to your contact.

To use the new camera icon, simply open the Messages by Google app and tap on the camera icon in the app bar. This will open the camera app, where you can take a new photo or select an existing photo from your camera roll. Once you have selected a photo, you can edit it, add captions, and then send it to your contact.

The new camera icon is a welcome addition to the Messages by Google app, as it makes it much easier and faster to share photos with your contacts. Previously, users had to tap on the share button and then select the photo they wanted to send from their camera roll. This could be a time-consuming process, especially if you had a lot of photos to share.

With the new camera icon, users can now share photos with their contacts in just a few taps. This is a significant improvement, and it makes the Messages by Google app even more convenient to use.

In addition to the new camera icon, Google has also made a few other minor changes to the Messages by Google app. For example, the app now has a new icon, and the user interface has been slightly updated.
