*Face grouping, live albums and photo books are not available in all countries.
Great app, save for the inability to identify duplicates for deletion. I mean, c’mon! Yer Killin’ Me! The ability to search photos with keywords, (even color), and the interactive map are fun ways to browse forgotten memories. Also the editing features are sufficient for most editing jobs. If you can get past the fact that you are a willing and eager participant in helping Google map every aspect of our reality in preparation of…of…
It’s so basic to the point of being annoying to use. Can’t sort by upload date and the feature on the website doesn’t work properly or show images that I just uploaded. Uploaded images to it from Google Gallery go missing (seriously, where do these go?). Google’s reply has nothing to do with anything in my review, but that would require actually reading it.
I have given this app one too many chances. Today, I’m done with it. So many kinks that have been going on for YEARS that they can’t seem to resolve….but this is about the 5th time I created a movie from saved photos and videos that would not process, no way to download, even after hours of waiting. It’s incredibly frustrating. To go through and collect all these photos took HOURS. Now I have nothing to use for my husband’s bday. Thanks! 😒
I don’t know what happened with this most recent update, but ever since my app updated a few days ago, I haven’t been able to see ANY photos that are added to shared albums. I get plenty of notifications saying photos were added, but I can’t see any of them when I click the notification or go into the app. It’s pretty irritating how buggy it is, and since I use the shared album for work, I’m *really* hoping it gets fixed soon.
As someone that has a TON of photos that I’ve gathered from online and my own personal collections, I need a place to store and organize them all in one spot, and Google photos fits that bill perfectly. It’s not PERFECT, I’ve noticed a issue where some photos show up by the date they were originally taken instead of the date I downloaded them, but it’s not the end of the world and I can probably fix it in my settings somewhere. No major issues with it thus far
This goes without saying but this is a crucial part of Android’s ecosystem that makes it one of the best in the world. With that being said, I’ve noticed a very interesting bug that has plagued the last few versions of this app and has not been fixed. When using the face grouping feature, I am unable to actually add or edit names of the individuals that have been grouped via the AI algorithm. I’m currently using the Pixel 7 pro but was using the pixel 4xl beforehand and had the same issue.Fix it
Its really good, everything, the backup, the way its organized, the fact that you can see photos from your devices all together. However, I would like for it to maybe have an option that makes the photos deleted on the device get deleted in the Photos app too so I don’t have to delete them manually which takes time and sometimes is a struggle
Lacks the ability to edit the animation you create (after their suggestion to select some photos). Extremely slow saving of edits but good for backing up photos I’m beginning to wonder if I need to investigate other options. Seems like it would be a good brand building if not money making opportunity for Google, but what do I know.
I absolutely love this app! I can now watch decades of beautiful memories on each of my TVs, where I use Google Chromecast. No matter where I am in my house, I use Chromecast with the Google photos application to display photo albums on my TVs … No longer do I keep these memories locked away on my hard drive! Google, thank you for a very great innovation!
Update 01/2020- getting much better, bumped up a star. LOVE Google photos, and it’s fantastic when it works. Problem is, the app only works about half the time. Doesn’t hide photos you ask it to hide, won’t add names to photos you ask it to, locks up, refuses to manifest the keyboard when you need to enter text, and so on. Really wish it would work, because the concept is super useful.
Love that you can easily add photos to multiple albums. Wish there was a way to manually sort albums or quickly hide/unhide them. Also, the search functionality seems to have trouble finding text in dark backgrounds. (It seems to be successful only if there’s black text on a white background.)
Trying to open up space, I deleted over 4000 pictures but it still says the folder is full. I’ll be switching back to Samsung with my next phone. Saving/downloading a picture doesn’t have it show up in my pictures for texting, Facebook, smartframe, etc. So sharing pictures of s a lot more inconvenient. My phone doubles as my camera so that function is a priority for me.
Google Photos is absolutely fantastic ❣️ This app makes organization and accessibility a breeze. Not to mention storage and the fashion in which browsing options can be personalized to suit every preference imaginable. The only suggestion I have is that I wish you could post concerns, problems currently taking place, and ideas, questions and suggestions in a manner that allows you to receive a response to the post. If this is a possibility PLEASE let me know how to utilize the feature. THANKS
Every single time I try to edit a photo and save the copy, the app crashes and doesn’t save the edit. I’ve tried updating the app, clearing the cache, and uninstalling/reinstalling. Same problem. Update: I had already tried to all the suggestions in your article. I’m not gonna waste time submitting a ticket, I just downloaded a different app.
There are several things that should be easy to do that are either hard or impossible. After so many years in existence, I expect a better product. Examples: 1) if there is a small photo, in slideshow mode what is the point of showing it as small? At least give the user the option of resizing the photo, 2) there should be the option to control the speed of a slideshow – e.g., what if there is text that takes time to read?
Why do you keep messing with the app when there’s nothing wrong with it??? Out of nowhere, RIGHT NOW, the app went crazy, duplicated my photos, then undid that but re-dated all of my photos to a month ago! It looks like I haven’t taken pictures since November 2nd and everything is marked incorrectly. Someone needs to contact me about this because you never do.
My only real problem with the app is that now the memories are TERRIBLE. It had become part of my daily morning routine to look at the memories from previous years. Now, with one of the more recent updates, I get memories from two days or weeks prior. An option to TURN OFF all the extra unnecessary memories and JUST get the ones from exactly so many years ago would be great. The only current settings available allow you to hide specific dates or people, or to turn off specific memories.
Anytime I make any changes within this app it freezes and lags for about 10 minutes in the process, even when only doing something basic such as deselecting a single folder that has only one or two files in it that are less than a couple megabytes each. The app seems ok though as long as you don’t make any changes to it.
I don’t understand why my albums have been changed. I had everything set up exactly how I wanted it. Your new update has taken away some of my albums, pictures, & added another album that is completely unnecessary. I like the options to have an album for whatever I want & be able to hide them or expose them. Your new update is AWFUL. I have been an Android user from the beginning. I’m now searching for a new photo album app that allows me to control my photos like an adult who pays their bill.
I’m honestly getting annoyed at this app. For this being the default app for my phone, it’s lacking some key features such as sorting my albums. And within those albums you cannot sort either. And upon updating, they have once again cleared my bookmarked photos. I could find a better photo gallery app in my toilet. The one positive is that you can look at your photos. But good luck finding a specific one in a timely manner or doing anything beyond that.
I’m love G. “Photos”. With this new update, whatever you write in the Comments section (thanks Google for fixing that), it appears on far left bottom of the screen. I did not think I’d like it initially, but as I played with it during a “Test” video, it’s very cool. “Photos” is so handy for screen shots too especially when my printer refuses to print. After the screen shot is made, you can print immediately, then delete it if desired.
It really is the best out there. I’ve tried other photo/gallery apps and they just don’t compare. The ease and the flexibility of capturing, backing up, modifying and reaccessing just can’t be beat. My only glitch is I’m not a fan of having things out in some ‘cloud.’ When I find something that can outperform Google photos and regain my full privacy I’m gone.
It appears there is a problem with the latest update. I keep getting the message “photos keeps stopping” repeatedly. It is very annoying! Just received a new update yesterday and now it appears that photos is working properly again. Thank you for whatever you did. The only little issue that I still have is that you cannot select and download multiple photos for Facebook or Instagram. You have to choose them one at a time and download them to your file manager first.
This is my primary app for backing up photos into my storage. I like the new features (the photo editings), and generally, the entire app. Although, one thing I’ve been constantly noticing is that sometimes, when I try to edit or download an image, it tells me “Unable to edit, check your connection.” It’s really frustrating because I have 0 issues with my connection expect for on Google Photos.
I really like this app. Mostly easy to use. Great Adjust options. Eyedrop color copy would be a great addition. But option to Rename file photos themselves would make organization much easier. Even w/ the recent update (Dec. 2022), my phone is LITERALLY OVERLOADED w/ files, photos, etc. taking up 95% storage. Locked Photos replacing Archive adds to the confusion. It’s taking me HOURS of going through EVERY SINGLE PHOTO & trying to free up space using Drive & Backup.
It would be nice if Google would quit changing the formats on all of their apps and then they decide to eliminate them for a newer app that doesn’t work nearly as well, like Google Gallery, it sucks. But this app needs fixing still. If I am placing a photo into Archive folder why does it still appear with the other photos? There is no need for a photo to appear in multiple folders, if I put it into a specific folder, it shouldn’t be in any other folder it’s a waste of space.
I have tons of albums I made in my Samsung S20 Ultra’s native Gallery App. I synced everything to backup automatically, including all the folders to Google Photos, but upon doing so, they all get added to the general Photos in the online website version. REALLY wished the albums (libraries) I had on this app auto-created those albums in the online version (web browser). Very least, add a “select all” feature in the Libraries tab on this app so I could add them all to Photos Albums. Huge UI fail
The latest Memories update ruined the app. If you try using the contact developer link it gives you an email address that is no longer in use. This app just keeps getting worse. It has deleted a face label linked to a folder with hundreds of photos twice now. If I could I’d give it Zero stars. I am now looking for a better app to organize my pictures.
Overall this is a great app. I’m lucky to have extra storage through Google one. If I didn’t, I would probably have to buy additional storage which in my opinion should be free. Also would love to see more editing options to keep up with other free apps available. I love that I can have all my Google apps connected and synced on all my devices.
Years after my initial troubles with this app, I tried coming back to it. Now I’m having the issue that my google cloud storage is full, because I tried temporarily backing up my photos on this app. Turns out, I can’t delete them from this app as it also deletes them from my phone, and the full storage is now not allowing me to edit documents that belong to that account. The ability to unsync that account so I can safely delete seems no longer present. Please re-add it or make it more obvious.
Google photos is great. The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because of some of the smaller things I found, but overall I love it. The fact that you can search keywords, or faces, or landmarks makes it really convenient when trying to look for a specific photo. The only downside (and reason for the 4 stars) is because sometimes it can get really picky and not find something that’s obviously in the photo. But I typically will think of another keyword for it. I highly do recommend using!
I actually rly like google photos. It is kinda bittersweet at times. When you’re looking at some items the app creates for you like the “from _____ year(s) ago today” pictures. It brings back memories and reminds you of certain events/people/things that you almost let slip past your memory. Also i wouldnt be surprised if you’re actually able to turn off these features (like the “moments”) etc. Personally, I like the things the app makes generally. Plus the app, at least for me, runs smoothly.
Honestly, this is a great app and it comes free, but there is something that I have a problem with. All of the reviews don’t seem to mention this, but whenever I try to add a description into one of my photos, it keeps on deleting the description or it replaces it with the same description I put on different photo? You should definitely fix this as this is literally infuriating to me. Despite this problem, it is still a great app to use.
Hot take incoming – This tech company Google, makes good products for my life and needs. I really like having everything synced up amongst them. I think there are always features that could be cooler, or some of the UI might be improved in some ways. Ultimately I need my products to work consistently, and do what I expect them to do. Photos does that for me 100%. And IMO every UI that’s ever been created, has been one’s favorite thing, and another’s worst ever. Not a factor for my rating.
I really wished I used a different app to back up my photos and videos. There is no download button that should be easily accessible. And after trial and error in searching, you find it You can only download one photo at a time…. this is very frustrating because in backed up albums and they are no longer in albums. Furthermore, I don’t need to easily share my photos …countless apps can do that I WANT TO DOWNLOAD MY PHOTOS IN THE ALBUMS THEY WERE IN.
wow that’s really cool Google! I love how you put a vague “free up space” option and didn’t specify it was deleting the photos on my gallery. It’s also really cool that you removed the download option for my own photos so the only way I could get them back onto my device is to wait for days to get a compressed zip file version of them. I hate your stupid app
I was honestly fine with the app and would have rated higher until the last 3 days. The app has been glitching and causing the screen to flash like crazy, then locks up the phone. I’ve rebooted the phone several times but it only happens when I’m using the Google Photos App. I also uninstalled and reinstalled the app and still have the same issues. Ran my virus protection again just to be safe and it shows no issues with the phone itself so it’s problems with the app itself.
This app has helped me to choose photos that are blurry and out of sync with my devices and that I have duplicates or multiples of that I do not need. It also helps me to utilize features like changing the light effects and making the picture brighter and easier to view. I would like to try the option of creating a GIF which does seem to be an option. The Google 1 storage is also a great value for storage of photos from Google.
The app keeps playing random music over my memories and I hate it. I don’t need some sappy music playing, especially if I’m in public. At least give us an option to turn that off. I find the songs annoying too, super distracting when I’m remembering friends and pets that are no longer here. I used to look forward to reviewing my memories everyday, it was a nice bit of joy that has now been tainted by this unnecessary music. Let us turn it off.
I love Google photos but it needs more. I have to use multiple photo apps because the editing and movie making is limited at best. I don’t know if it’s possible to make an app like picsart, power director, and Google photos combined.. but if it was it would be the PERFECT photo video app. That being said, I still can’t go a day without Google photos..🤣
Deleted Google photos app, and determined that the duplication continued, is apparently caused by something else. Not sure what it is, but it seems random. I know Google wants to promote their app, but I would much prefer that the sharing functionality under Google photos didn’t prefer their app to 30% of the screen. It’s annoying, I never use it, and there’s no way to get rid of it. Original post: Randomly duplicates photos from time to time. Annoying.
This app is great, I’ve never had problems… Until now. Whenever I delete a photo from my gallery, it makes one from a day forward go back into the day I just deleted one from, so if I deleted one picture from February 1st, a photo from February 2nd would go down one, under the label of February 1st. It’s really annoying and idk how to stop this or fix it. Please help me!! Edit: I don’t know if this is helpful, but on Google Files, my photos are all in order of date, so it’s fine there.
The fact that you made it so music plays and photos zoom in/out while viewing memories was just a horrible idea. Not to mention the fact that when you long press, it doesn’t clear the photo of clutter anymore, it just pauses auto-play. The reason so many companies try to fix what isn’t broken is just way beyond me. Edit: That’s a great dismissive reply. Like my single opinion will change your business…
Can never actually use the search function Edit: I know how to search. The search feature just doesn’t load anything. It doesn’t matter if I’m on 5G or wifi. The bar will pull up, I’ll type in the search bar, and nothing happens. 2nd edit: I have to clear the cache anytime I want to open an album, and it only works for one album and then I have to clear the cache again. Can’t access my “favorites” at all or anything sorted by location.
This is a great app to keep a backup of your pictures. What I don’t like this when it backs it up from my phone it takes the picture from my phone and puts it in the general repository on the Google Cloud, not maintaining the folder from which is was backed up on my phone. In addition to that, I can’t file photos into folders within Google photos, but there is no way to see what is still left in the repository that hasn’t been filed as a repository just exists as a whole.
(Updated Review) I love how it saves your photos on whatever device you have. Although there are a few problems. The editing could use a little work, and I can’t see memories anymore. It no longer shows “one year ago” slideshows. Otherwise, I would recommend this app.
It is impossible to quickly delete all of your google photos in the cloud without spending a significant amount of time multi-selecting the photos in batches and manually deleting. “Delete All” is such a simple feature to add, that one would assume Google has made the decision to not include it in an attempt to coerce people into paying a monthly cloud storage subscription fee.
Unreliable, unstructured, I have been trying for over six hours now to sync albums from SD card on phone into photos so I can use photos with a new phone, but not all folders on device show up as available to do so. I have given permissions, cleared cache, reinstalled app, rebooted phone. I have carried this file structure for years on an SD Card, but SD cards phasing out. I give up now and syncing what I have time to synch to Google drive. The rest will just stay on the SD card in a drawer😢
They want you to help them train their face recognition software by labeling all your friends. If you try to post a pic somewhere you can’t do it from the site, and you can’t open pics from Photoshop, you can’t browse photos on your computer. It came with the phone along with the very dumb, bad listening, short attention span, confused “assistant”. Photos, the Annoying Folder, try to open it today. Folder, album… mystery
Love Google photos, easy to share family photos with family and friends. But I do wish on the phone app (for Android) that you could search for the album by typing the name is the album when adding photos to albums. I have many many albums and scrolling is not easy. Also would be nice to be able to have the option to search albums as a list without the album cover pic to find albums faster. Thank you!
essential app. I wish it was easier to organize it into real, not virtual, folders. I have to be extra careful with Google cloud storage: Early on, using Drive and their backup utility, I managed to lose about 1000 photos that I thought were backed up. I can never really trust them again.
It’s fine. But honestly wish I could just take a picture and have it stay only on the phone. I don’t need it going to the cloud and filling up my Google storage space. Haven’t figured out what setting would make that happen. I delete old, unnecessary images and still sometimes end up seeing them later on another device. Clearly I don’t know how to fully delete either.
This is by far the worst photo app ever. It doesnt have a save feature, the ways you can select photos is horrible, and it takes up all of your storage on google. To fix this, you either have to manually delete all your photos, or pay for more storage. I went to delete my photos off the app and then it deleted photos from my phones storage, Very important photos that now there is no way to get back because this app apperently has the right to delete photos from your phone outside of the app.
I love Google photos. The app itself does really cool things, such as put together specialized albums of the people places & events you photograph. But most important to me is that you never have to worry about losing your photos forever if you happen to lose your device you took them on..because they’re all backed up to the app itself. So if you lose your device, you just download the app onto the next device you get and all your pictures are still there safe and sound, giving u peace of mind.
Simply the best. I don’t 500 characters are enough to say about this app so I’ll make it short. Not only easy great for organizing my photos and easy to share, it fixes my photos, automatically creates panorama pictures from individual pictures I took, automatically creates collage from related photos. The feature I like the most is it often shows me old pictures so I can relive the moment.
Easy way to archive photos, edit, crop, etc., and even experiment with colorization, and if you make a mistake, you simply revert back to the original photo. Fascinating! I just wish all of the features available through membership were available to everyone. One last thing: Who was the “genius” that thought it was a good idea to rate everything, no matter how innocuous, AND, as if that’s insufficient fodder, have to tell you how we feel about it? Mind-boggling, and a HUGE waste of time!
This app has forever improved technology. I work for a wireless company, and while setting up/backing up customer’s phones we run into a lot of issues when things don’t quite go as planned. Let me tell you, in more occasions that i can even remember, google photos has saved the day, allowing me to provide the excellent customer experience that I strive for.
I use Google photos to back up the photos on my phone. My new phone doesn’t have an SD slot, so the internal storage filled up pretty quickly with the number of photos I had. I backed them up to Google Photos and then used the free up space utility, only to discover that Google Photos doesn’t save them into the albums I had them sorted into. YEARS of photos, disorganized in a matter of minutes, with no way to undo it. Thanks a lot, Google.
I lost a lot of my features, including misc folders, like vz media, and picture collage, etc. Seems it’s a very dumbed down version. Why is that? Screen shots don’t automatically save, I constantly have to go in and clear my cache. And even then it is hit-or-miss if it is in the photos library. Worst release I’ve seen google actually put their name behind this version? What happened to Google support? ..now layoffs? What are you thinking? Support trading people for canned AI responses!
It picks & chooses which albums actually appear to have the ability to transfer over to Google & those which aren’t able to, are merely deleted from your phone without warning. I’ve lost so many photos thanks to this app & haven’t been able to recover them due to my own fault of not backing them up to a computer thinking I wouldn’t need to by saving them here. My mistake by trusting this app. Reached out to customer service for assistance on recovery & that was an even bigger mistake. 0/10 Edith
I love being able to edit photos in this app on my phone! In addition, I can do the same on Google Drive. However on Drive, I can zoom out and in, whereas on Google Photos, zooming out exits the photos. Can this be fixed so I can zoom both in and out the same way Drive works on my phone, please? Thank you.
Super frustrating trying to save photos and videos. Says “saved” and it’s no where to be found. It would be much better if you could select where you’re saving to and if it would actually save. Despite having full battery and trying multiple connections, no improvement on that function. Also, not all videos and photos come up when entering a simple date or year in the search box.
1. Bad December update – there used to be an option to take snapshots while taking a video, but it’s gone now. There’re no options or setting on the video screen now while the video is being recorded. 2. Why do I have to jump through a 1000 hoops to get a picture marked up? The editing options are laughable – the pen or marker size is fixed, which makes them useless on a phone screen. Each markup is saved as a separate copy without giving an option, and I end up with dozens of pictures.
Notifications are intentionally difficult. For example, you’re telling me to turn on photo backup and that I need to buy more storage. So where is that seeing? You tell me – It’s buried somewhere in the 50+ Google Play Services notifications settings. This is far from acceptable. EDIT: New version is not improved. Markup functionality is a huge step backwards. It’s pretty clear that Google is good at acquiring companies but very bad at writing their own software. Terrible.
This app could be great. It’s simple and the editing and organization features are great and in the right place. Unfortunately, the app fails randomly to do the simplest tasks such as moving an image to a different local directory or to edit a locally stored image for no rational reason whatsoever. This has been the case for many years now and is worse than ever in 2023. For a company with the talent and engineering power of Google, I find this inexcusable.
In many ways feels like a downgrade from the previous Android photo app – your previous file folders don’t show up anymore and you get annoying suggestions of “2 years ago” etc taking up space on the screen. I have to use a different app just to be able to use my previous folder organization (or manually redo everything in Google Photos?). The new features are cool though.
I like this app except your written part, needs more options, color control, variable fonts needed, with various background plates. And better organization of photo options, I would like to see for instance….the ability to pick up a photo and place it with another in sequence, like a dated photo next to another before or after a particular date…thanks for listening, Jim in Jamestown California.
Ever since the last update last week my android phone’s Google photos app is constantly crashing. I can only have the app in use a couple seconds before it crashes. I tried clearing the cache and uninstalling any updates. And it worked for the day and a half that it took to get back all my information but after that it started crashing again. So again I tried to uninstall updates and it was okay for about a day or so while it was getting my photos. Now it’s crashing again. Any suggestions?
This app tries to do too much, and most of it I don’t want at all. I use Gallery from Google LLC. It’s much simpler and makes it easy to move things from actual folders to other folders. And it doesn’t pop up in your face with “let google do this or do that,” because it doesn’t have unwanted fluff.
App works pretty well, storage is meh, and shame that the Pixel Pro uses this instead of an actual gallery app, but some of the editing features are pretty nice at least. Still learning to adapt to it as I had an S10 prior, but it’s alright. Not great, not terrible; gets the job done, basically. Grateful for the storage space that allows me to remove things off my phone, but the folders and moving things around can be a bit complicated, unfortunately.
Sometimes ( very rarely) I have photos that self delete without my consent. I haven’t lost anything vital yet but it’s still an issue and the only thing preventing a five star review. Edit: went back through and I’m missing photos that I really wanted of my partner and I did not delete them. This needs to be fixed. Edit: apparently the issue was resolved and all is well
Edit to ask: My photos are being doubled in the app. I literally see two of everything. If I view one then the other disappears but eventually comes back. No update pending. Already cleared cache. I really do love this app but it should have a pin lock feature for the app as a WHOLE, not just an individual folder.
I would love if you’re photos would not over take the camera storage in my Android with your automatic back up. I don’t want to use this feature as I shoot a lot of photos and i like to edit, delete and save to one of my Gmail drives in various folders. I was going through some photos via your program tonight and it started automatically backing up my photos to Google photos…. ugh…no I can’t turn it back off. This total integration is not what I want to use.
Poor interface. Very cluttered layout and poor aesthetics. Should adopt a more minimalist design, and make navigating the app a more streamlined process. Too many features (i.e. Archive, share, albums, folders.) The ability to move pictures between album and camera roll seamlessly as well as a multiselection picture function are to be expected in any decent photo app but is somehow lacking in this one.
