Overview
- Google said in a support post that updates to the crop tool on Android are rolling out now in a staged release.
- The release fixes a flaw that made the image preview shrink when users pulled the crop handles.
- The update also resolves a bug that flipped or changed a photo’s shape when people rotated while cropping.
- Google added fluid animations for dragging, rotating, and choosing aspect ratios to make edits feel smoother.
- The tweaks build on the September 2025 editor redesign and early April additions like AI Enhance and video speed controls.
