Easter egg in google photos

[IMANUT46]

I saw a post about an Easter egg in google photos about Halloween. It doesn't work on my latest version. Anyone get it to work?

What version do you have? I'm on 4.28.0.

And just to be sure -- you're typing "Halloween" into the Google Photos search bar, right?

Do you mean this one?

 

[Javier P]

That's with v4.28.0.

I'm on version 4.28 and it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

Try clearing the app cache/data for the Google Photos app.

Strange, I've checked on two different phones running different Android versions and it works in both of them. Are you running 10 beta?

I'm running Android 10. Never had a beta. Here's the steps I took to try to get the Easter Egg, Halloween. I loaded Google Maps, in the search box I typed "Halloween" and all I got were Websites. Did I miss anything?

That Easter egg works in Google Photos, not Maps.

You're using the Google Photos app, not the web interface or Google search app, right?

I must have SOMETIMERS. I was using maps instead of Photos. I'm embarrassed. Sorry.

No worries! Did you manage to see the pumpkin animation? Cute, huh?

I've tried and not getting it. I verified the correct Photos version, but is this device/version specific? I tried on a V20 with Oreo.

 

[Javier P]

I've checked on different devices and it's working on 10 and Pie but not on Oreo, all of them having the same Google Photos version. Not sure about the reason.
