Snapseed may add separate photo-saving and Exif controls
Google is testing more detailed photo-saving controls for Snapseed, its photo-editing app.
The proposed settings would let users choose different image quality and file formats for exporting, saving or batch-editing photos.
Snapseed currently uses one set of these options across those ways of handling images.
The change would also let users set separate Exif data choices for each mode; Exif data can include a photo’s location, camera details and capture settings.
This could give users more control over image quality and privacy when they save or share photos.
The feature is not confirmed for public release, and there is no announced rollout date.

We’ve seen evidence that Google is working to split the existing options into three sections based on how you save the image.
