The Google Photos app will apparently soon allow users to remove the audio from any video. The discovery was made by noted software reverse engineer, Jane Manchun Wong, who is believed to have found the experimental feature following an APK teardown of the Google Photos app. While some apps already offer the feature on both Android and iOS, the fact that Google is also looking to implement it in its popular gallery app, is certainly a welcome move.

Google Photos has been introducing a number of new features of late, including the ability to manually tag people in photos within the app. The app, last month, also got a relatively minor design tweak that removed the hamburger menu from the top left corner and relocated the search option to the bottom.
