How to Use Google Photos - Beginner's Guide

- Google photo is a photo sharing and storage platform from Google.
You can use it on the web at google.com/photos or you can use the iOS or Android apps for phones and tablets.
There are 4 big benefits of using Google Photo.
1. Frees up space on your Phone
2. Easily moves photos to be accessed on the computer and moves photos from your computer to your phone
3. make sharing photos a lot easier.
4. Organizes your photos automatically by people in the photo, phototype, location, and more.
When using Google Photo, make sure backup and sync are turned on. This will automatically back up photos from your device to google photos and will do the same with future photos and videos.
You can also change the quality of the uploads here. High quality (16 megapixels for photos and 1080 p for videos) is unlimited but the original quality will count against your Google storage limit, which is 15GB for free accounts.
Google photos automatically organize your photos and videos for you based on location, people, and type of photos.

Wow Ron. This is the best comment I’ve received so far and it means a lot to me. Thanks for taking the time to write it.
The d riding is crazyyy
Totally agree - easy listening. His voice is pleasing to my ears; he is informative and well versed, thank you.
Ron, your critique of the host's presentation was actually one of the most well-thought-out and time-taken critiques I personally have ever read! I am *not* being facetious, *nor* sarcastic, either. I really enjoyed the critique. It, more than anything, made me want to watch this video I accidentally clicked on! I write critiques all the time, and there was just a lot that I appreciated about your critique, and I wanted to take the time to tell you that. Great job!
❤🎉❤
Thank you SO much for taking time to post this. I just got a new 2021 Motorola Gpower with Google photos, and have been reasonably unhappy so far. I really dislike that we cannot get rid of the Print Store in Libraries. But I can at least organize my photos a little better now thanks to you.
Before I saw your video I did it by myself it’s like it appeared at my google update this apps so I tried. Your step by step instructions is exactly I did .
I will share this videos to my friends and my some of my social platforms also maybe some of them needs too.
Thanks! You explained this so clearly and showed me exactly what I needed to learn (I had no idea of the features). Will definitely subscribe to your channel!
Thank you so much for all the tips. I always learn something from your videos.
Pleasant man u r... U r mild mannered & r a good teacher..
Thank u sir🙋😊🙋
Well done. A couple questions: 1. if your goal is to primarily upload and share slide shows, can you set things up so only those photos are uploaded (ie: from your mac/pc) ? 2. if you wish to invite someone to access your slide show, do they have to have a Google account? 3. when someone is viewing your slide show, can they manage it in any way (ie: speed). Thanks again.
Thank you very helpful, the only question remaining. I don't want to keep everything.. what workflow do you reccomend when filtering out videos/photos you want to trash? first back up and then enter a desktop to filter the trash out?
What a great period of instruction! Consider me a new student. I subscribed and hit the bell!
Hello, Great intro ... I was wondering if there is any way to caption individual images in a Google photo album? Also if I want to delete photos from my phone will they disappear from my Google photo album? I currently use iCloud backup , Amazon Prime photo (as I am a prime member and storage is unlimited) as well as Google Photo. Which of these three do you prefer? Is it true that if you delete images from your iPhone they will also be deleted fro your iCloud backup? Thanks.
Thanks for all the info. I've been using Google photos for awhile now but I haven't utilized all of the features. Do you have a video that explains how to use the "Utilities" features? I've had this message on my Google Photos app saying "1461 items to delete from this device" but I've been scared to actually do it because it didn't seem to give me the ability to review the items before deleting.
Thank you for this video. I'm just learning and this has given me something to move forward with.
Helped me to understand Google Photos and features I was not sure about.
Thanks so much for another great tutorial.
Great introduction to Google Photos! Thanks!
I like how it can hold your precious memories hostage and keep asking you to pay money.
Gotta love the mafia.
Thank you so much for explaining I g Google photos It was very helpful👍🏼😁
I think there's beautiful and getting you to understand to understand your phone to save all your pictures
This, is amazing vid, SUPER HELPFUL, thank you so much man, I really really appreciate!!!
Great video! Thank you, that was very helpful!
This is great and clear. THANK YOU
Great video! I take a ton of photos and I don't want to sync my phone photos to my google photo account. How can I select the photos I want to move from my phone's album to my google photo account without syncing?
A.I is annoying, I don't want Google shuffling all my photos around and organizing it the way it feels is the best and identifying people and places and stuff. I just want to make my own folders and drag and drop stuff.
If that's a problem for you, you'd be better off getting a USB hard drive and copying your photos to that as a backup instead.
I totally agree. Call it, what you will, but It's all about info harvesting formats increasing control. And as of 1/2023, Google holds our photos for ransom .. We have to pay for the app, to have Google release THAT, WHICH IS OURS! Some of the suggested alternatives are worth considering
Hate it
@muckraker610 do you have an alternative you recommend?
Agreed. I have three dogs that are the same breed, AI recognizes them as the same, so if I want to view a photo of my deceased dog, I can't sort her from the other photos.
You explanation is great! I have the app since 2015, 2021 & 2022 I stopped backup on the app on my phone. When I restart the phone app will it give me all the old pictures again? If so how do you easily get rid of duplicates?
I need to copy my photos from my phone to my desktop , some of the Photos are very Old and cannot lose them . Priceless.
Thank yo. Very helpful. I had no idea.
question, if you have icloud photos on and it's 'optimise storage', does that mean google photos won't be able to access many of the photos locally on the phone due to them living on the cloud?
Great Video! very helpful.
Hi, this was really helpful. But is Google Photo able to automatically create album as per our mobile phone?
Thanks for video. You explained it well.
Hi - do you know how to remove the "highlights" that's just appeared above every google album - thanks
Thank you so much, you are a lifesaver!
GREAT INFO THANK YOU SIR !
Very useful video. Is there a way duplicate photos can automatically be deleted?
Thanks for sharing. A question please: is there any way to cut and paste images between folders on my android phone Google Photos app or my Desktop app? I simply want to cut and paste photos from Folder 1 to Folder 2 and have them only in Folder 2. Thanks for any help with this.
photo tagging in apple photos makes it much better
Once photo is in Google photo can I delete it from my photo gallery. Or will deleting it from my gallery also delete it from Google? I have an Samsung phone if it matters. Thanks for this video. Very helpful.
Thank you Sir 🙏🏻
Thank you. it was quite helpful
Thanks, Im using Android and google photos is my main app. In the application, I can see all my photos as they're synced with google cloud but when I wanna upload some like in Instagram for example, I cannot find the photos I want to share although they exist in photos app.
I love Google Photos
So appreciate this video!!!
Hi, I’ve two gmail account on my iPhone and just updated the google photos storage to 200GB. Is this mean the two gmail account can use same storage or I’ve to update the storage for both account separate?
Another thing is most are my kids photos and videos. How many photos and videos for 200 GB can store?? Thanks
I've been backing up to Google photos for years and just recently did the 100gb upgrade to free up space on my device. I'm still learning it, but 1 question i got is. Can you move a photo or video out of Google photos back to your " Album or Gallery" on your device?
if i use this as my storage for my photos on my iphone
are the albums that i created on my camera roll of my iphone also can be sync to the google photos??
Thank you! How do we delete multiple albums at once in good photos?
wow so good i am support
Thank u .. very simply explained!! But I have a doubt here. My android phone storage is full. And I uploaded all my photos and videos on Google photos. Is there any option where I keep my photos on Google photos and delete it off from my phone gallery?.
Amazing👏👏👏👏👏
very clearly explained
Thank you so much
Is there a way to move all photos at once? I have way too much...
I'm generally pretty tech savvy and been using Google (Android) based devices since 2010. One thing I can't get so far though is the whole syncing and displaying on the Photos Website. I am syncing my current phone (Samsung S20 Ultra) in preparation for my new S22 Ultra since I no longer have use of a memory card. My main thing is that when I pull up the Photos app on my phone, I can see my entire library, including all my custom folders I have in my Samsung Gallery (France Album, London Album, San Francisco, Food, etc.). When I pull up the website though I have Zero Albums and the website prompts me to create my own album.
I selected the option to backup all my folders on my gallery (not just my camera), but am yet to see anything on the website. Really hoping since I literally JUST did this today, and my Google Account on my phone says I still have around 17k items to backup, that there is a delay? I also notice that not all my albums on my Photos App on my phone are 100% backed up yet either, so hoping that may be the case and I need to wait longer. Going to be a bit disappointed if I don't have the albums pre-made and sorted on the website version of Photos when logged in to my Gmail account. Wasn't sure if you could advise at all?
I Feel the same issue, i want Google photos to back my folders but it doesn’t!
How do you share photos or albums to Instagram and TH-cam? When you touched the share icon at around 11:42, your phone shows the Instagram icon. Mine doesn't. It only allows me to share with Facebook and Twitter 😕 Thanks
Hi mate you know an easy way to save your complete photo libary from Google Photos Info camera roll? Like the iPhone with one click toake the gallery offline useble
Hi great video although i have just downloaded the app and now Google charges once you reach 15gb no matter what resolution you use so it is not free any longer.
so if I wanted to get a new phone or delete all my photos off my regular apple photos app will it save the ones that are backed up on google photos?
I just don't understand why you can create albums but also folders and if I move something into a folder or messes up the gallery also it said that a lot of my photos are double saved. Maybe I need to say that I have a Google pixel and this was the only gallery app I have in the first place. Also what does archive mean?
I would appreciate someone to explain this to me a lot. Thank you.
So nice Nice job Google
Hi, what happens if I unsubscribe to the monthly plan (question also for iCloud) will i be able to access my media? Will it be deleted after certain period of time?
Sir, I know I can backup the local folder I have created in my Phone to Google Photos by enabling the Sync for those Folders but is there any why I can keep them stored as Albums in Google Photos?
Thanks for your help. One problem I'm having is when I delete a photo from my iPhone, the copy on Google Photos is also erased. Something I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help.
Hi, I like to also save photos on an external hard drive. Is it possible to transfer the photos from google photos to an external hard drive? Thank you
I want to organize my photos into certain categories myself. Can I turn off or disable the auto sort feature?
Are Shared albums also organized by date? Is it possible to add new photos to the shared album snd have them placed where they belong by date? And, if someone erases a picture from the Shared Album will it be deleted in my library?
Does it also retain all the albums that I had created on the iPhone ?
awesome thank you so much !!!!
Can I make it so it only shows my backed up photos instead of showing all my photos on my phone
I have an important question. I want to have only my photos captured by my smartphone camera displayed in the home feed of google photos or at least in an album. In my One Plus 7 Pro (idk wich android it runs on currentyl but i will edit the commen later) its exactly like that. Screenshots are in the screenshots folder, whatsapp photos etc are in their on folder as well. Now I have a Xiaomi 13T and I don't see an option for this. Is this because of the phone manufacturer or the new Android version or why is it like that ?
Can you explain why when you deliting a photo from google photos it also deletes that photo from the device???
Thank you💐
can you please tell me how i can zoom in on a photo and save it that way. i did it once and i have no idea how. please help. thank you
Are live photos backed up on google photos? Or will the file upload as a picture only ?
I have my Google photos synced, however, I'm trying to free up space on my phone/gallery. When I delete it from my gallery/camera it also deletes it from my Google photos app? Am I missing something here?
I could be wrong, but here's what may be happening to you because it happened to me. I was using the native Gallery app on my Android phone to organize/move my photos into certain albums (which are really just device folders). When I would then open the Google Photos app on my phone, I'd see those groups of folders with the same titles I had given them in the Gallery app. But those are not ALBUMS in the Google Photos app. I then needed to create Albums, but I didn't know this for a while, though. So when I would delete a folder (album) from the phone's Gallery app, I would notice that same-titled folder was now gone from the Photos app. I KNEW I had backed up all my photos but didn't understand where the folder went. Turns out, the photos were still in my Google Photos app, but just in chronological order. When I deleted the device folder "album" from my phone, it also deleted the folder from the Google Photos app but not the photos inside. They were still there, just in chronological order. So, what I should've been doing all along, was using the Google Photos app to create albums and organize my photos. The part that had confused me all along is that my phone's Gallery app calls the folders with the photos "albums" but they are really device folders. Creating an album in the Gallery app does not create an Album in Photos.
Me too, when I think I moved all pics and videos on google photos, i would delete them on my device and it will be deleted on google photo too
@@PreciousOracion same here. were you able to fix this?
I'd like to transfer my Google photos to my external hard drive to open up phone storage. What steps would you recommend?
All you need to do is , in Google photo app, click on your profile icon, it will start backing up the photos and it will tell you when it's done loading them. Set all Google photo settings to your liking too
can you delete photos in your camera roll once it's been backed up in google photos?
Great video
Can someone answer this?
I'm out of space on Google photos. How do I only see photos in cloud and not on device? I want to delete photos from Google cloud ONLY not my device too. But every time I try to delete, it asks "delete from cloud and syncs device" No just cloud. I tried turning off sync access and then I try to open photos it demands access to photos.
So any idea how to clean up only the cloud?
Do you have a video how to download to icloud as a backup
Good help thank's
Great video 👍
Great video and extremely helpful. Thanks!

After i download and backup on IOS can i disable and delete photos and still be able to use them on apps such as twitter messages or Instagram?
I will download it tomorrow
Sometimes I take photos of sensitive information, scan documents via the camera, screenshots, etc. that I don't want to back up. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to exclude an album from google photos for auto-backup. So I'm stuck clicking each photo to back up, then when I go to delete them "from this device" it says they aren't backed up, although indeed they are. Is there a way that this can back up photos from messages, notes, etc.? Or a way to exclude an album? I'm thinking I'll delete those photos from my phone, then turn on backup and sync. Then turn it off again and re-save the excluded photos. Anyway, any insight is greatly appreciated!
Get an app to scan documents and in Google photos don't select that folder for backup
If you have Google photos installed you forfeit any and all privacy your phone once had. Download all backed up photos from Google and then uninstal the app. Then take your private photos and never install the app again. Cause as soon as you do, it will access and upload your private photos.
Can I copy phitos from Google phitos to my SD card then delete the phito in Google photos to make room.? I'm running out of storage and I'm trying to avoid paying for more storage. Thanx.

I dont see any way to edit in google photos on a mac computer, only on a phone. Do I have to have a paid google one account to edit?
how do you markup images/photos in google albums on android and have the photos sync in album with markups?
Hi I noticed when I delete a picture from my picture roll on the phone, it deletes from Google photos too. I want to be able to delete pictures from my phone, but keep it on Google photos. How can I do that? I downloaded Google photos to free up space on my picture roll. Thanks!
Damn, i just syned like you say and it overwrite my existing old photos. Damn!
Thank you so much for explaining very well .. I have one question , my question is ,sometimes I want to use one the picture to use on my Instagram or Facebook or transfer to my photo gallery or some of them together in collage !

So after i do dat can i delete my gallery or will dat delete everything?
I have alot of photos in my google cloud from old phones. I'm getting a new phone tomorrow - how do I get the photos from google cloud (my computer) on my new phone? Also, if i open google photos on my phone through the browser, I see an up-facing arrow in a blue circle (I don't know what that means)... I hope you can help me because these pictures are priceless of my mom and I don't want to lose anything.
Is there a way to be able to delete photos on the Apple photos but keep them on Google photos ?
