media editor

Google is enhancing the Android Photo Picker by integrating a built-in media editor, as indicated by the "EditFeature" class found in the Android 17 QPR2 Beta 2. This editor will allow users to make quick edits, such as cropping and marking images, directly within the Photo Picker interface. The media editor aims to streamline the editing process, enabling users to edit media without leaving the Photo Picker, thus improving user experience and consistency across third-party applications. The feature is part of a Project Mainline module, allowing updates through Google Play System Updates. While the media editor is not yet active, further developments are anticipated.
