Google Photos now makes you edit before sharing, but there's a way to disable it

Another day, another Google Photos update that takes one step forward and two steps back. It feels like Google is constantly tweaking things that it really doesn’t need to tweak, sometimes all in the name of a more-uniformed brand and updated UI. That isn’t to say that everything Google updates, even in small ways, is bad, however; most of the time, Google’s approach to updating its suite of apps is welcomed. For instance, a recent update for Google Photos on Android can now give your old pics a whole new life with the Ultra HDR editing tool. It’s a small, but potentially big feature that will make your SDR photos look much more vibrant without taking up practically any more space. Another update for Photos in recent times is getting much less favorable reviews, and we’ve got a way to help combat your frustration.
