Windows 11 Photos is a great photo management tool that has been around for a while now. However, the recent redesign may make it more user-friendly and easier to use. The new design is much more organized and easy to navigate. You can now easily find photos by name or album name, as well as by location. You can also see all of your photos in one place, which is great for organization. There are also some new features included in the redesign, such as support for RAW files and automatic photo tagging. This will make it easier for you to keep track of your photos and make them easier to manage.
Windows 11 Photos App
Panos Panay has shared quite a few Windows 11 updates on Twitter. For example, Panay first revealed the new Snipping tool. Now, he’s shared a quick video showcasing what the Photos app will look like in Windows 11.

While there doesn’t appear to be many new features with the Photos app, it definitely has the Windows 11 look. We’ve grown to know and love those rounded corners in Microsoft’s latest version of Windows are present in Photos, as is a slightly cleaner user interface. For example, the controls for editing images are more compact now, which should streamline using it.
There are some improvements to the cropping menu, too. Now the image jumps to full screen when you’re working on cropping it.

Obviously, any changes Microsoft chooses to make won’t replace an actual image editing app like Photoshop. Still, at least you can use the Photos app to do basic image editing with the Windows 11 look and style.
Overall, it looks like everything is streamlined in the Windows 11 Photos app. It’s great to see Microsoft putting in the effort to make sure its apps are polished and well-designed for Windows 11. Now, let’s hope the company manages to make the Photos app run less slowly.
