\"\"Google updates just keep on coming. Earlier today new versions of Google+ for Android and iOS pushed out, and I’ve been too busy to handle the goods (Later! Promise!). Two key areas of focus: Sharing and sharing — as in primping photos and being better part of Communities. The updates are somewhat different for both platforms.<\/p>\n

In an unsurprising move, the iOS app picks up some features from Snapseed, which Google acquired last autumn. So now, when you\u2019re sharing a photo, you can: “Do basic edits like rotate and crop, as well as select filters like Drama and Retrolux; adjust saturation, contrast, brightness and lots more by sliding your fingers up-and-down, then left-and-right; single tap at any time to compare your creation with the original”, Amar Gandhi, Google+ director of product management, says<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Snapseed remains a separate app for iOS, and that’s where the real Instagram-like photo-editing capabilities can be found.<\/p>\n
