San Francisco, May 5 (SocialNews.XYZ) Microsoft has started rolling out an update to the Photos app in Windows 11 which includes a broad set of new features, improvements, and fixes based on feedback.

With the slideshow experience, users can now relive their memories and view photos in a slideshow format, complete with transitions, animations, and 25 original music soundtracks to choose from.
According to the company, this was the top requested feature by the community since launching the new Photos app in Windows 11.
