Hi!
I have the following two, possibly related, problems (related because they all have something to do with a problem with synchronization).
1) The number of photos across different Google apps does not match. When I add up the photos from photos.google, I get 8480 (adding up all pictures is quite a feat in itself because there is no display for the total number of photos). When I count the files synchronized via the Backup and Sync app, I get 8499. This could possible make sense because some photos taken with iPhone consist of a photo and a video, and count as one in photos.google but are made up as two files. However, what strikes me is that the Google dashboard shows 8517 photos, so again a completely different number. I find it very strange that these numbers do not add up. This question has been raised previously but it has not received a satisfactory solution for about 2 years (https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/photos/Htx8_dCzlA4).
2) I toggled on both options for synchronization between GooglePhotos and GoogleDrive in the respective settings. I now added one picture for trial purposes into GoogleDrive (I put it into the folder "Google Photos" and not in any of the year sub-folders). It has not been synchronized into GooglePhotos for more than 24 hours. Can this be?
Thanks a lot!

On cinematic photos, I cannot share to the Chat App (by Google). I can only share to Classic Hangouts.
Answer:
Hi,
A short update on the 2 issues:
I found that pictures put into GoogleDrive do show up in GooglePhotos if put not in the Google Photos folder but one level above. So this is fixed.
However, I am still struggling trying to locate the reason why the count of photos is different across different Google apps. I found out one more thing: If, in the dashboard, I click on "Photos" and then on the albums (it says I have 585 albums but have not yet created any), it takes me to a separate website, where I see albums for different days etc. for the auto backup. If I add up all these, I get the aforementioned 8517 photos. However, in GooglePhotos, the number is still different. How can this be?
Answer:
- The Dashboard not only counts the photos you upload to Google Photos. It's an old application that worked with Picasa Web Albums, and in fact still does with the successor https://get.google.com/albumarchive.
The Album Archive contains photos that are NOT in Google Photos. See this link. - "I added one picture into the folder "Google Photos" in Drive. It has not been synchronized into Google Photos for more than 24 hours. Can this be?
Yes. The "Google Photos" folder in Google Drive is ONLY intended to show photos from Google Photos in Google Drive, for example to back-up photos that come from mobile apps.
Answer:
Thanks a lot, that really helps!
Just to clarify, I have freshly made this google account and only used it to auto upload photos from my iPhone so far. I am not using any Google products that could also create additional photos showing up on the dashboard.
So I am wondering, how could the different count of photos, bot in the backup albums and in the dashboard, be explained? I did not really see the answer to that in the link.
So I am wondering, how could the different count of photos, bot in the backup albums and in the dashboard, be explained? I did not really see the answer to that in the link.
Answer:
"How could the different count of photos, bot in the backup albums and in the dashboard, be explained?"
I have no idea. I have a test account with 31 photos thus decided to test a bit. Note that I never used the Desktop Uploader or Backup & Sync. All photos are uploaded manually to Google Photos.
- The dashboard says 61 photos.
- But I have only 31 photos in https://photos.google.com/ andn none archived
This is confirmed by 31 photos in "Recently added" https://photos.google.com/search/_tra_ - In https://get.google.com/albumarchive I find 50 photos, but
- Some photos are shown in a self-made album and also in an album under "Auto Backup". I removed all photos (21) from all self-made albums.
- The number of photos in Google Photos did not change (as expected)
- The number in dashboard went down to 61-21=40 thus the doubles were also counted
- In Album Archive I find now 50-21=29 photos as expected
- I have now less photos in Album Archive than in Google Photos.
- I deleted 3 photos from Google Photos that were also under "Auto Backup" in Album Archive. The number in Album Archive decreased by 3, but the Dashboard went down from 40 to 31 ! It seems that these photos were counted 3 times in the Dashboard ! I may have uploaded, deleted, and uploaded again.
- I then deleted 9 more photos and the dashboard went down to 21, which finally seems correct: I still have 19 photos in Google Photos, and 2 more in the Album Archive (one profile photo and one from Blogger).
The conclusion is that both the Dashboard and Album Archive are unreliable to count numbers of photos. The only way to count in Google Photos is to select them all, but that is not possible for more than a few 1000 ...
Answer:
Hi!
Thanks again for your effort, I find this really informative. I did not create any albums myself yet, only the ones created automatically by Google (places, things, ...). So I am not sure if this is the reason in my case - do you have any other ideas?
In any case, I take from your comment that I probably should not worry too much about this mismatch on GoogleDashboard etc.
Thanks!
Answer:
"I probably should not worry too much about this mismatch on GoogleDashboard etc."
I think so, simply because there is no explanation. I would forget about the Dashboard and Album Archive, but it's a pity that there is no indication of the number of photos in Google Photos. Some users wanted to know whether all photos were uploaded by comparing the input/output, but that seems impossible. I do not have the issue because I only upload folders manually to albums, thus it is easy to monitor the numbers, and there are warnings when photos were skipped.

On cinematic photos, I cannot share to the Chat App (by Google). I can only share to Classic Hangouts.
(On normal photos and videos, I can choose to share via the Chat App just fine).
Why, if Classic Hangouts app is dying, can I not share the new stylized Photos (cinematic photos, specifically) to Google's new Chat app?
This fragmentation is incredibly frustrating.
As is being sent back to the classic hangouts app (which I keep being told to remove in favor of chat) to view content.
Please fix!

When you attempt to manually empty the trash bin in Google Photos, a warning message box appears that explains you are about to permanently delete those pictures and videos. If you choose to proceed anyway, there is nothing that any of the volunteers in this forum can do to help you recover your pictures.
The information on the following Google Photos Help pages will help you become more familiar with finding, deleting, and restoring your pictures:
If you deleted pictures or videos that were not previously backed up to your account through the Google Photos app, then unfortunately there's nothing that Google or any of the volunteers in this Help Community can do to recover them.

Hi all,
I have migrated from iPhone to Google Pixel 4A.
I have previously uploaded all my Photos on Google Photos (via Chrome).
A large batch was (re)dated from the day of the upload, so a good chunk of my roll was not ranked by chronological order. I have manually changed dates and now they are ok on Google Photos (browser).
But when my Google Pixel 4A synced, all those photos still appear as dated from the day of the upload.
I.e. i have many photos from 1 to 3 years ago appearing as if taken yesterday.
And the order that i see on my browser is not the same as on my phone, unfortunately.
I have even reseted the phone and synced again, no change.
As if the change of date was only effective on Google Photos platform but not on the phone App.
Any idea ?
Many thanks for your support.
Best,

Probably most of these outdated pictures originate from social media like Whatsapp - such popular media strip all original data, so at downloads they get that date.

I put certain photos into albums and would like those photos to be taken out of the general photo area. As of now the photos in albums are in both the album and the general area. I have been archiving the photos from the general photo area after putting them into albums. While a temporary solution it is not ideal. Is there a way to automatically archive photos after they are in an album?
Answer:
No because partly the same pictures from your visual library can be selected in different albums with different purposes.
Answer:
Yes. It is for logical organization. It is inefficient to have them in both places. If you think of it from a different perspective, gmail for instance: there are labels in gmail that help you to organize. When you put an email under a label it is out of your general inbox. It would not be organized to have the email in two places - in general inbox and under the label. There is no need to have an email in two separate places similar to no need having pictures in two separate places.
Answer:
Ahhh but your argument with Gmail is flawed. When you place it in a label it is also still in All Mail, justnot in your Inbox. So Photos essentially is functioning the same way as Gmail, only difference is there is no inbox.
Answer:
But that is not unless you are using a special setting in Gmail I am not aware of.

Fred Baas 8714,
I'm not familiar with that particular app. This is the Google Photos Help Community.
If what you meant was Google Photos, it is possible on most Android phones to disable the app and hide it from view. Depending on your device's operating system and where it came from, you may not be able to completely delete the app.
You should check out the official Android Help page about this. If you have further questions like this one, my suggestion is that you seek assistance from that particular Help Community, as that is where you will find the most relevant answers regarding how to add or delete apps on your device.

Answer:
PIxel 3A has free and unlimited storage on Photos, so your 20 GB is not counted by Google and that is why you still have 14 GB for free because Gmail and/or Drive may take some storage.
See the 3 numbers at one.google.com/storage for your account.
And on photos.google.com you can see what you really have at Google safely.
That's all.
PS: the free-up space option only deletes from phone what is stored at Google and it is not quite clear if this is just a small amount corresponding to 1 GB on your phone. Then most of the time your backup has not worked at all or was switched-off by you quite soon for unknown reasons.

Answer:
As said: on photos.google.com you can see what is backupped and at the right border there is calendar over the period from start at the bottom up to recent on top.
Hard to count of course, but a global inspection will give enough information.
And what is there will be removed from phone if you start free-up space - but if a large part is on sd, free-up will not deleted these pictures - only the pictures in internal memory.
Goodnight from here

Answer:
Thanks for feedback Tarin.
So if I understand well, that smart storage function prevented that 21 GB could be deleted by the free-up space function and you are naming that as a "hidden bin".
So if you switch-off smart storage, free-up could do its job properly.
Did you check that?

I have been archiving the photos from the general photo area after putting them into albums. While a temporary solution it is not ideal. Is there a way to automatically archive photos after they are in an album?
Answer:
No because partly the same pictures from your visual library can be selected in different albums with different purposes.
You only should use the archive for hiding pictures you don't want to see between normal pictures in your library, like technical screenshots.
But you can send a feedback straight to Google via the main menu under the 3 small lines left-up.
Answer:
Yes. It is for logical organization. It is inefficient to have them in both places. If you think of it from a different perspective, gmail for instance: there are labels in gmail that help you to organize. When you put an email under a label it is out of your general inbox.

Answer:
But that is not unless you are using a special setting in Gmail I am not aware of.
However: this is the way Google Photos is organised and normally you can go straight to the albumpage and then you don't see your library stream anymore.
But that stream are your originals: if removed, the also will be removed from your albums. But you can remove an album (because it was meant for temporary sharing or whatever) without loosing your originals - so you always can built a new album again. And you also can remove a less suitable picture from an album without deleting your original - so that also prevents loosing originals.
That is completely different from old Picasaweb where you only had albums containing your originals and that was all. And when you upload new pictures to https://photos.google.com you always will be asked to which album they should be added and that also may be a new album or an album that you want immediately for a couple of weeks.
You have to live with it, because Google will not change this basic design.
And be aware: nobody sees that stream - they only see albums if shared.

Please note that, due to a variety of reasons, not all files can be recovered - but you can try!
1. Items deleted from your photos.google.com are stored in trash for 60 days and then are Auto-Deleted from trash and can not be recovered.
2. Items deleted manually from photos.google.com/trash can not be recovered.
3. Items deleted from your YouTube Channel can not be recovered.
4. Items deleted from your Gmail are stored in trash for 30 days and then are Auto-Deleted from trash and can not be recovered.
5. Items manually deleted from Gmail trash can not be recovered.
6. Items deleted from your Google Drive will be stored in Drive Trash for 30 days and then be Auto-Deleted from Trash and can not be recovered.
1).If you are using a regular personal account
You will have to contact a Google Drive Specialist who *MAY* be able to restore it. Use this link:
2). If you use a work/student account (G Suite), you should contact your Account Admin as they can restore files up to 25 days after deletion.

Question: How do I hide my photos
Hi, nightheme 365
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
To hide your video, either you can archive that. Then, that wouldn't be visible immediately through the gallery view.
Or, if you have received the update of the "Locked folder", add the video to that.
Here is the help desk article explaining how to use the locked folder.

I can't find any of my photos between 1996 and 2010, different Android phones over the years but all saved to photo libraries offered on the Google platforms over the years. I'm able to find many since 2010 but none saved prior to that. Why? Where are the photos Google said I'd never lose access to, that I could access anytime anywhere from any phone , that I could trust those memories to? I'm so upset about important lost memories and I trusted Google.

Photos are displayed under the wrong dates and locations, sometimes up to a year apart from when the photo was actually taken. When I click on the photo and go to the photo details section (dates, location,, etc) it is all correct. If I switch accounts to another one the photos are displayed just fine. I've tried clearing the app cache, restarting the phone, backing up photos but nothing has worked. I have a Google Pixel 4A, of that information is useful. Any suggestions?

Answer:
Jacob, deleted Photos are stored in Trash for up to 60 days, if you delete Photos again from trash, that's two times deletion.
Unfortunately, once Photos are deleted from trash there is no way to retrieve them back :(

I'm really sorry for your loss.

I have searched for the answer but may have been using the wrong keywords, as I couldn't find an answer.
Is there any way that I can find what webpage(s) are linking to, or including, my photos? Some seem to have a large number of views and for the life of me I can't think why.
I've tried using Google to search for the URL and to search for the last part of the URL, but no joy.
Thanks,

Hi, Teri Markanson
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
I am trying to make the reply as simple as possible,
First, if you have installed the Google Photos app on your phone, please uninstall or disable that.
Next, open the Google Chrome browser on your computer.
Enter the link https://photos.google.com in the search box.
Log into your Google Account if the page asks you to do so.
Once the photos become visible, move your mouse on the first picture. You will see a grey tick
in the top left corner of the picture. Click on that & the tick will become visible on a blue background.
Go on ticking all the photos in the same manner.
Once done, click the bin
symbol near the top right corner.
The photos will now enter the trash.
Next, in the left margin, scroll down to see the symbol of trash
.
Click on that.
Then, you will see an option "Empty trash" in the top right corner.
Click on that too.
Once done, there will not be any trace of your photos anywhere on the cloud.
Answer:
First of all, thanks for your reply. But, I'm not accessing google photos with a cell phone...I don't own one. So, please reply again but know I am using a Windows 10 laptop.
Thanks for your consideration.
Answer:
Hi, Teri Markanson
Thanks for your reply
If you are not using the phone app, skip the first step, "Uninstall Google Photos app".
Rest all the steps are to be carried out on a desktop PC only.

Hi LInda ,
Welcome to the Google Photos Community
Without having access to the apps you are using it is difficult to diagnose where the issue is, please take a look at the link below to a Recommended answer which explains some of the places which might be causing the issue and possible fixes:

Question: Why should material stored in cloud be managed from my phone storage space?
Your question is unclear.
Did you apply the free-up storage option to clean-up your phone-storage perhaps?
Else you should have done that regurarly yourself to keep enough space for new photos & movies etc.
If so, you can use the pictures shown in the Google app for almost all applications, but some apps are too stupid to be able to connect to world famous Google Photos and then you need to download a few - just one-by-one.
