“Upload the pictures, and let Google Photos do the rest” – The New York Times
• 15 GB OF CLOUD STORAGE: Every Google Account comes with 15 GB of storage and you can choose to automatically back up all your photos and videos in Storage saver quality or Original quality. Your photos are safe, secure, and private to you. All photos and videos you backed up in Storage saver quality before June 1, 2021 do not count toward your Google Account storage. *Storage is shared between Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos.
• FREE UP SPACE: Never worry about running out of space on your phone again. Photos that are safely backed up can be removed from your device’s storage in just a tap.
• NO ADS: Google Photos doesn't sell your photos, videos, or personal information to anyone and we don't use your photos and videos for advertising.
• FAST AND POWERFUL SEARCH: Your photos are now searchable by the people, places and things in them—no tagging required.
• GOOGLE LENS: Search what you see. This preview enables you to identify text and objects in your photos to learn more and take action.
• SMARTER SHARING: With smart sharing suggestions, giving your friends the photos you took of them is painless. And they can add their photos, too, so you’ll finally get the photos you’re actually in.
• ADVANCED EDITING: Transform photos with a tap. Use intuitive and powerful photo and video editing tools to apply content-aware filters, adjust lighting, and more.
• MOVIES AND GIFS, MADE FOR YOU: Get automatically created movies, collages, GIFs, and more from your photos. Or easily create them yourself.
• LIVE ALBUMS: Share your latest photos with Live Albums. Select the people and pets you want to see and Google Photos will automatically add photos of them as you take them, no manual updates needed.
• SHARED LIBRARIES: Share without sharing. Grant a trusted person access to all of your photos.
• REDISCOVER: Get collages of photos you took a year ago on this day – perfect for #tbt.
• ON YOUR TV: View your photos and videos on your TV with Chromecast and Airplay support.

You can also upgrade storage for your Google Account, used for Original Quality photos and videos, Google Drive and Gmail by subscribing to Google One, an expanded storage plan. Subscriptions start at $1.99/month for 100 GB in the US. Pricing and availability can vary by region.
Storage subscriptions purchased in-app will be charged to your iTunes Account, and automatically renew unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Subscriptions and auto-renewal may be managed by going to iTunes Account Settings after purchase.

Awful update.

Dunmoonin on

United Kingdom

Before a week ago I could type in a search for a photo and the relevant photos would be shown. Now I can type in exactly the same search and thousands appear, the vast majority of no relevance. For me this s one of the main features I pay a subscription for but if it isn’t fixed soon I shall be going elsewhere. If it is fixed I shall update this review to five stars which it was before the update.

Fantastic

Brill app everything you could want in a photo app

Can’t use it unless I give access to ALL photos

Monica Acinom on

I find it odd that I need to sync all my 14k pictures and videos (for which I pay iCloud) for the app to then say I ran out of storage on Google when I only want to create a small album of pics to sync to my Google Nest Hub. Horrible experience

Useful to use

Useful app to use however don’t appear to be able to see many people individually grouped and can get occasional technical issues within the app as well.

Very good photo app, BUT…

I use this app all the time on my iPad and iPhone, but the latest update has created a major problem for me on both of these. When adding and editing text in the app the Return (or Enter) key no longer works. Please Google sort this out soon.

I gave this app five stars as it is beyond my expectations the original purpose was to save data but it not only did that but became one of my fav apps to have pls I have an iPhone the only downside is that the layout isn’t as good a apple

Horrible update

Unhappy-user-190824 on

I've been using this app for around 8 years and I used to like it, but the new features/update make it unusable. First there are many bugs regarding album covers and counting of photos that just fix after you reinstall the app (I've been deleting some photos and can't see the updates on the app). Main issue though: the album display are messy, it shows all your albums and shared albums together. Also when I leave an album, it doesn't work and I still see I'm my list. Will wait a month if there is no fix for this, will migrate all to Apple photos.
