The Google Pixel 7 Hidden Feature That Fixes Blurry Pictures
TheGoogle Pixel 7 is all about a great camera experience. Google has put in the best it has to make the Pixel 7 snap amazing pictures and record stunning videos. Even with similar sensors to their predecessors, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro each provide better results because the company has spent extra time with the hardware and optimized it well. The Tensor G2-powered smartphones also have new camera features, such as Cinematic Blur and Guided Frame (via9to5Google). However, your new Pixel 7 has an additional, hidden feature that can fix blurry pictures.
No matter when you captured the image and regardless of the device you used to take it — if you have the image in your Google Photos library, your Pixel 7 can fix it (viaXDA). The hidden feature is available on the latest Pixel devices in the Google Photos app. In many ways, the feature is an upgraded version of Face Unblur on Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, which uses both the main and ultrawide cameras in concert to capture a moment and then stitch the results to produce a relatively clear picture, even of moving subjects.

Released in 2021, the Pixel 6 was the first Google smartphone to feature a high-resolution primary camera. The phone was powered by Google’s in-house processor called Tensor G1 (viaPhoneArena). To accompany the Pixel 6, Google also released the Pixel 6 Pro with an additional camera sensor that could zoom in optically up to four times (viaCNET). Even with these impressive inclusions, the new Pixel 7 series takes everything to the next level.
Say hello to Photo Unblur
Using Photo Unblur is very easyas it is baked right into the Google Photos app. Many third-party apps can turn a noisy, blurry, unclear picture into a sharp and vibrant portrait, but Photo Unblur saves you the hassle of downloading and trying them. Just follow the steps below to use the integrated feature right without any additional requirements.
Photo Unblur utilizes Tensor G2’s AI capabilities to sharpen blurry images, according toYahoo! Finance. If you’re someone who ends up clicking shaky images, Photo Unblur is for you. However, in some cases, the results might be slightly oversharpened or look artificial. Some photos might not respond well to the feature, while others come out perfectly sharpened. Nevertheless, you can try the feature several times with different images to see how it works.
