You have thousands of photos. Making one video out of them means choosing — and that's the part nobody wants to do. For Reel does the choosing. ■ Albums appear on their own The app finds the days you were away and the hours your photos cluster, then has an album waiting. A trip, a birthday, a wedding — open the app and it's already there. For the ones it misses, set the dates yourself. ■ Only the good shots, cut to length Pick a length — 30 seconds, 1, 2 or 3 minutes, or set your own — and it fills that length with your better photos and clips. Blurry frames and near-identical bursts drop out. Receipts and screenshots are skipped. ■ Pick a song and you're done 483 original tracks. Fifty are built in; the rest download in mood-based packs whenever you want them. Choose by mood and tempo, then drag the waveform to set where the music starts. They're ours, so the videos you make are yours to post anywhere. ■ Not quite right? Tweak it Drag to reorder. Set how long each photo holds and trim each clip with two handles. Live Photos can go in as motion or as a single frame — your call. ■ Add a title and a date Choose from 1,900+ Google Fonts for titles and captions, and stamp the date in a film-camera or VHS-camcorder style. You decide when each piece of text appears and disappears. ■ Portrait, landscape, wherever you post Portrait 9:16, 3:4 or 4:5, landscape 16:9, 4:3 or 5:4, or square 1:1.
