Calling all Android Users- Big update to the Google+ mobile app!

h/t to Mike Allton for this

I’ve not had the chance to download the update, but quite excited about this. Here are 9 new features in this update to the Google+ mobile app for Android.

I am interested in the new gif creation feature- sounds fun.

I don’t know what the new sharing features are. I really hope that this will allow me to share a G+ post with another app. One of the great things about Android is the way you can share links between apps. I’ve found it frustrating that I can’t share a Google+ post in the G+ mobile app to other apps such as Pinterest, Buffer, Twitter and more. Could this be that option?

9 new features in Google+ for Android

1. Auto Awesome Stories now combine your photos, videos and the places you visit into beautiful travelogues. You can read more at googleblog.blogspot.com.

2. Auto Awesome Movies are now available on Android, iOS and the web, so lots more people will receive highlight reels of their photos and videos. Here’s one example: http://goo.gl/9ljcdj.

3. You can now create animated GIFs and photobooth-style images on demand. Just tap the new plus button in Photos, and select either Motion or Mix.

4. Really big photo libraries are now supported on Android, so you can access your many thousands of photos quickly and easily.

5. You can now browse your entire photo library, as well as your highlights, by date. Just drag the new scroll bar to move forwards or backwards in time.

6. Profiles now display total content views on both Android and the web. (You can choose to show or hide this number via settings.)

7. A new navigation menu makes it easier to switch between your favorite circles and communities, as well as other places in the app.

8. It’s a lot easier to share content from your phone or tablet. To give it a try, just tap the new pencil icon at the bottom right of the stream.

9. The app menu now slides away as you move down the stream, letting posts fill the entire screen.

Look for the new app as it rolls out gradually to Google Play (http://goo.gl/ruuHW), and let us know what you think!
