Hi Alitaetae,
If the deleted videos are still in the Google Photos Trash you might be able to restore them as explained in these instructions https://support.google.com/photos/answer/6128867?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&oco=1
Otherwise it’s not possible to recover videos permanently deleted from the Trash. However, you may install to your Android device a deleted video recovery app (be sure to pick one that doesn't require rooting) https://play.google.com/store/search?q=recover%20deleted%20videos&c=apps and run a scan for anything to recover.

Question: My sister photo are missing or may be merged with other faces.
Hi, Anushka Sinha
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
The face recognition feature is still evolving & is likely to err particularly when faces are either near about or blurry.
Nevertheless, you can correct that manually through the following steps.
- Tap to open the photo which contains incorrectly identified faces & then slide up or tap the three dots.
- Tap the edit icon at the extreme right edge. (An icon of a pencil circled in the screenshot above). That will show identified faces in square boxes & their thumbnails at the bottom.
- The ones with a - sign are the identified faces. Tap on that & the face will get transferred to the collection of thumbnails with + sign.
- Now tap the + sign. Then the app will show you all the identified faces till that time. You can select the right one. Then the photo will get transferred to the right collection.
PS. The edit feature may not be available in some regions. If you happen to be from that, then regretfully nothing can be done.

Answer:
Hello Li La,
Thanks for posting in the Google Photos Help forum.
Google Photos has identical duplicate detection, where if you have uploaded photos to Google Photos already, it will not re-upload the same photo (each photo file has a unique "Hash" that allows us to determine this).
Hence, Google Photos avoids uploading duplicates, when different upload methods or devices are used, as long as the photos aren't edited. There is no easy way to remove duplicates, but some of the following may help:
- You can delete duplicates manually, for example in https://photos.google.com/ where they should be next to each other.
- The problem is however which one to delete:
- one photo may be edited, the other not,
- one photo may be in an album, the other not.
- When the upload dates are different (for example when you uploaded long ago via Picasa, and now again using the Desktop uploader). It may be easier to delete the duplicates in https://photos.google.com/search/_tra_ where they are sorted by upload date.
- There are more ways to get a useful search result, for example the device from which they are uploaded.
- See https://sites.google.com/site/picasaresources/Home/Picasa-FAQ/google-photos-1/how-to/how-to-search-for-photos
- Since very recently it is possible to delete photos directly from an album. Go to "More options" (3-dots icon), and use "Move to trash"
- When you uploaded in the free "High Quality" and have your photos in albums, it may be wiser to simply ignore the duplicates in the library.
Unfortunately, a feature to sort and delete duplicates of photos with Google Photos that are already backed up doesn't exist. You may have to manually select the duplicates and delete them.
Meanwhile, also try giving the below steps a try once again in a sequence to help resolve the issue:
- Close the Google Photos app and re-launch it.
- Sign out and sign back in to Google Photos with the same Google Account.
- Clear App data:
- Open your device's Settings app (not the Google Settings app).
- Touch Apps.
- Select Google Photos in the list.
- Touch Clear data.
- Update the Google Photos app on your Android phone:
- Visit the Google Play Store.
- Open Google Photos.
- Touch on Update.
Let me know how it goes.

Hi, I use google original file size upload to back up to Photos. But, when I try to DL , e.g, 90mb video from my photos account, it downloads a 85.8mb video to my PC. Same for photos, the downloaded version is a smaller file size less than the Google photo version.
This is a big issue. For some reason Google is not letting me download the original file as it is on google photos information page. If you have deleted things you had backed up to GooglePhotos, you have actually lost that file unless you view it on Google Photos?

Hi, LJ 256
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
When we opt for "High-quality" storage format, Google photos compresses the content slightly without compromising much on the quality. What you are observing is a consequence of that.
Answer:
Hi, I am not using high quality, I am using original quality. And what I mean is that when I download a file, the downloaded file is smaller than the file ON Google photos
Answer:
@ LJ 256
To my experience, when a photo is uploaded to Google Photos, then download, it has the exact same number of bytes.
When you edit the photo in Google Photos you normally download an edited copy, which is a new JPEG and thus may not have the exact same file size. Note that, when you edited, you can also download the unedited original: click 3-dots > Download original.
Finally, some programs do count a kb for 1000 bytes, others 1024, which may also explain a difference.
Answer:
Google indicates bytes - Windows indicates bi's which are a tiny bit smaller.
Like Jan explained in his last sentence.
So no quality difference, just confusing.
But with such a tiny difference you would not see any quality difference at all :-)

Answer:
@Paloma Julian,
Pixels 3a to 5 have unlimited uploads at High Quality. Original size uploads use storage.
Head over to https://photos.google.com/quotamanagement This should give a clue on where the storage is being used. Large photos and videos >5MB are listed and can be reviewed.
Also check at https://photos.google.com/unsupportedvideos where videos which cannot be converted to HQ are stored using Original size.
Storage may be reduced by going to https://photos.google.com/settings and using the Recover storage option.
If you need to subscribe to Google One you can Create a family group then share the storage between members and it can be used in addition to their own 15GB
Review backup settings on Mobile

- On your computer, download and install Backup and Sync.
- Sign in to the Google Account that you use for Google Photos.

Nevertheless, when you tap the delete icon in the Google Photos app, a warning appears telling you what will happen if you proceed. On your phone, that message asks, "Remove from Google account & synced devices?"
When you attempt to manually empty the trash/bin in Google Photos, another warning appears that explains the consequences of permanently deleting 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.

However, you may install to your Android device a deleted photo recovery app (be sure to not pick one that requires rooting) https://play.google.com/store/search?q=recover%20deleted%20photos&c=apps;
and run a scan for anything to recover.

Hi, Deepanshu chaturvedi
Thanks for your reply
Once a user deletes something despite warnings, then Google doesn't retain anything on cloud.
Your only hope is to scan your phone using some file recovery app.

I always back up my photos. On June's I went to backup tmy pictures from Memorial day. The only ones not previously backed up. When I went to check the status Google was backing up up all 121,255 photos and videos I've ever taken that were already backed up? That shouldn't be. How do I get help addressing this issue. It's going to charge me for backing up everything I've ever owned and not just for the new pics from Memorial day.

Hi, Robert Hostetler
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
Usually, all the camera apps on Android phones capture any video in MP4 format. That is compatible with playing on Windows desktop through the standard Photos app available in every installation.
Nevertheless, here is a full list of compatible formats.
m4v, .mp4, .mov, .asf, .avi, .wmv, .m2ts, .3g2, .3gp2, .3gpp
Nevertheless, the video editor in Google Photos doesn't offer any conversion facility. You will have to look for some proprietary video editor to do so.

Hello There,
If you deleted an item and want it back, check your trash to see if it’s there.
- On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Photos app
.
- And check the Trash
.
- Click Restore
If the item is not in your trash, it may be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
You may also try to get professional help, but sorry to say Google cannot do anything about it.
Regards,
Shyamsalma

Answer:
Hello Areej,
Thanks for stopping by the Google Photos Help Forum.
Google Photos has identical duplicate detection, where if you have uploaded photos to Google Photos already, it will not re-upload the same photo (each photo file has a unique "Hash" that allows us to determine this).
Hence, Google Photos avoids uploading duplicates, when different upload methods or devices are used, as long as the photos aren't edited.
To back up device folder:
- Open Google Photos app.
- Go to the More option (three horizontal lines icon).
- Go to Settings.
- Go to 'Back up & sync' option.
- Go to 'Back up device folder'.
- Tap Back up device folders and select the folders (to disable) you want to back up.
Folders can include:
- Photos you've downloaded.
- Screenshots you've taken.
- Photos saved by other apps (Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, etc).
Regards,
Amanda

Hi, Prerna Tiwari
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
The app is performing it's intended function of freeing up the space by removing all backed up pictures from your phone. Nevertheless, you can download the pics through the app any time.

While freeing up the space of mobile storage using Google photos by using Free up space option after the backup, it is clearing all the data in mobile. Instead of that , place an option for the folders which we need to keep or to remove in our gallery that we need to free up the space. Which will be very useful to keep some important folders even though backed up n free up using Google photos.
