About Microsoft Photos

Microsoft Photos is the photo application included with Windows 11. It lets users view, organize, and edit photos and videos stored on their device, with a gallery view for browsing. Basic editing includes cropping, rotating, filters, and an automatic enhance tool. Some AI editing features, such as background blur and enhanced search, are also described. Photos can be backed up to a Microsoft OneDrive account, and photos from Apple devices can be connected through iCloud integration.

The page also promotes Clipchamp, a separate AI-assisted video editor described as readily available on Windows 11. Clipchamp offers multitrack editing of audio, video, and text, plus a built-in library of stock media. The page compares a free tier, which exports up to 1080p, with a paid Premium tier, which exports up to 4K and includes premium stock and content backup.
