Google Docs is enhancing the cover image experience with more insertion options, expanded stock images, and improved UI.
Google Docs has updated its cover image functionality for pageless documents. Users can now insert cover images by searching the web, uploading from Google Drive, importing from Google Photos, or pasting a URL. Additionally, over 100 new stock images have been added with category filtering for art, food, and abstract themes. The 'Cover image' chip at the top of documents now displays a placeholder image and a menu with options to create images with Gemini or insert them via the new methods.
