Google Photos now lets you turn off background music in Memories
In an update, Google Photos is making it possible to fully disable background music in Memories. more…
Google Photos has introduced a new feature that allows users to turn off background music in Memories. Memories are a convenient way to relive important moments in your photo library, but the default background music can sometimes be distracting. Google has rolled out a global setting to disable this feature entirely. The new option can be found under Photos settings Preferences Memories, where a toggle has been added for "Background music".
This update is expected to roll out to Android users through version 7.99, according to Google. When this setting is turned off, Google Photos will no longer add extra music tracks to Memories. However, if a Memory includes a video, its original audio will still be heard. This global setting applies to all Memories, including the annual recap.
Google also mentioned that the variety of background music options has been updated, potentially introducing new tracks if the setting remains enabled.
