Google Featured Photos
Google Featured Photos is a macOS screen saver that displays beautiful high-resolution photographs from Google's curated collection of featured images. It integrates with the macOS screen saver system and activates during idle time, cycling through themed galleries of landscapes, wildlife, architecture, and other imagery. It is bundled with or installed alongside Google's software on macOS.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionGoogle Featured Photos is a screen saver component that runs as part of macOS's screen saver system rather than as a standalone app. There is no separate update channel for this component — it is updated by reinstalling or updating the parent Google software that includes it (such as Google Chrome, Google Drive, or another Google product). Check the vendor's main download or update tool for the product that installed this screen saver. Since this is a screen saver component rather than a critical application, its Intel-only status is less urgent than for primary apps, but be aware that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), so you may want to check with Google whether a native Apple Silicon version of the parent product that includes this screen saver is available, or consider using one of macOS's built-in screen savers as an alternative if the parent product is no longer being updated.
