Even though it is set to, it only starts backing up when I go into the photos app and check the backup and sync. Then it tells me there's a bunch that are not backed up and it is backing them up. But it's only when I go in and check on it. And then later when I come back it appears that it has stopped backing up the moment I turn my back and I have to keep checking on it in order to get it to keep backing up photos.

Answer:

Hello Elizabeth,
 
There are no settings in the Google Photo app which affect this, but it I believe it is related to the power saving mode of some manufacturers.  An example @ https://www.samsung.com/in/support/mobile-devices/how-to-disable-power-saving-mode-in-android-based-samsung-smartphones/

Answer:

Hi, Joseph Hamn

Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.

The moment you choose the backup format as High-quality, that will provide some file reduction.

Further file size reduction is possible by trimming the video through the editor in the Google Photos app.

However, if you wish to retain every frame in the video from start to finish, then you would need some proprietory video editor to achieve the desired file size reduction.

Question: Drive & Photos integration - delete folder

https://www.blog.google/products/photos/simplifying-google-photos-and-google-drive/

Happy to read that this has been improved but I'm not sure it's working right. Here's what I did

Uploaded a bunch of photos to a Windows folder that is synced with Drive using the Backup & Sync app running on that Windows desktop. 

Waited for the sync to complete and the folder to show up in Drive

Went to Google Photos on the web and used the new Upload From Drive feature to add the new Drive folder. 

The photos now show up in Google Photos fine. As per the blog post, the link between Drive and Photos is no longer there so I deleted the Drive folder, it's only purpose was as a stepping stone to get the photos into Google Photos. 

To my surprise, when the Drive folder was deleted, the photos disappeared from Google Photos! Restoring the folder from Drive trash restored then in Photos as well. 

What am I missing? Why is this not working as the blog describes?

Thanks

Answer:

I would not expect that either - but maybe you were too fast. Google Photos needs time (maybe an hour) to get settled. 

But it is not needed to upload to Drive first, because you can do that straight into https://photos.google.com via the Uploadbutton and then you also get the opportunity to create an album. 
And no problems - even when you delete your original Windows-folder.


Answer:

Just did some experiments, but removing from Drive did not remove from Photos. 
But I waited until all video's were ready to play in good size in Google Photos. 
And that was at least after a quarter on an hour. 
So try again. 
But as told: that subway is not needed unless for reasons not told :-)


Answer:

Well, as stated, the photos synced to Drive *do* show up in Photos, the problem is that they are still "linked" so that when the Drive folder is deleted they get removed from Photos as well. This is exactly the thing that the  changes on July 10 were supposed to prevent!

Is this working as advertised for anyone else?


Answer:

Rinus - I waited several hours after uploading from Drive into Photos using the new Upload from Drive button in Photos web to let them bake and settle.  Note that they show up instantly in Photos but no matter how long I wait, as soon as I delete them from Drive, within a minute, they disappeared from Photos!

Sounds like a bug to me


Answer:

But I did not use B&S to sync my folder to Drive - I just upload a new Windows-folder to Drive - so no sync at all from start. 
I you would have used B&S in a normal way, your pictures were uploaded automatically to Photos without the need of the new uploadfeature in Photos itself. And then you have the same behavior: deleting on Drive will delete on Photos and vice versa. 

So if you want to avoid this dependancy, you should not use B&S anymore actively, but just upload the contents of new folders straight into Photos - then there is niot even a syncing connection to your pc.


Answer:

Rinus -

My photos are on an external hard drive so instead of using the photos.google.com web uploader (which is a little flaky, hangs and such, to be expected with a browser based upload function), I chose to first copy the folder(s) to a Windows folder which is synced to Drive using B&S. Once this is done, the Upload from Drive feature almost instantly uploads the folder into Photos.

I  tried another experiment - I used the photos.google.com/Upload/From Computer button and pointed to this same WIndows folder which is under B&S control but that didn't change the behavior i.e. when I delete from Drive, they were again deleted from Photos. It is almost as if Google "remembers" that they are somehow linked to Drive.

This doesn't make sense to me. The blog article clearly mentions (emphasis mine) that once uploaded from Drive to Photos, they are no longer "connected" so deleting from Drive should NOT delete from Photos, that was the whole point of the recent changes!!

Taking a step back...why do I care about this? See last sentence below. I use Original Quality so I certainly do NOT want the same set of files to count towards my quota in both Drive and Photos.

I am a paying Google One customer so I think I will reach out to Google Support and ask them about this.

Update: Google One Support said that the feature mentioned in the July 10 blog is not rolled out to all users and they advised me to check back in August so I will do that.

Thanks

"New "Upload from Drive" feature in Google Photos"
We've heard that many of you would like more granular control when copying photos and videos from Drive into Photos. So we're bringing a new feature to photos.google.com called "Upload from Drive," which lets you manually choose photos and videos from Drive, including "Shared with Me" items, to import into Photos. Once copied, these items are not connected between the two products. Since photos and videos will no longer sync across both products, items copied in Original Quality will count towards your storage quota in both Drive and Photos.


Answer:

Sorry, but if "Upload to Google Photos" is on in the B&S settings and your setting is on Original quality in these settings, you only need to pay for the storage at Photos - not for the folders synced to Drive: they count zero bytes.

But I leave further discussion now to Peter because he is more specialised in using B&S. 
I don't trust any Google employee anymore now :-)

I've been trying to Search from pictures of Bank Books

Answer:

Hi, Jnanasagar Rai

Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.

However, you are sharing some sensitive information here. 
It's my humble request to remove the photo showing the bank account details.

Further, it's not clear whether you want to search the pictures of bank books or the text contained within that.

Regrettably, the search function in Google Photos wouldn't be able to segregate the photos of bank passbooks.
However, if you add some keyword in the description field of the photo, that will enable quick searches in future.

Nevertheless, you can search within the text contained in a photo.
To do so, please tap the Google Lens icon the third one at the bottom.
That will identify the text & offer to copy that to the clipboard or translate that.

Google Photos uploaded all my iphone photos to the Google cloud. I later cropped hundreds of these photos on the iphone using the native Apple Photos app. Why not crop them in Google Photos? Because it was a lot easier and more intuitive in the native Photos app. Google Photos then uploaded those updates. On my iphone in Google Photos, only the edited photos remain, just as I desire. But accessing Google Photos from a web browser, I see both the original unedited and the edited versions of these photos displayed side by side. For hundreds of photos! These unedited duplicates should not exist. I should not have to manually delete them. Will they go away on their own, or do we need to give Google a wake-up call for its half-baked software?

Answer:

Google Photos has no "Find Duplicate" function but you can leave Feedback requesting that it be added to a future update.
 
When making suggestions for new features/improvements, the quickest way (and recommended best practice) is to use the 'Send Feedback' link from within the product itself as that goes straight to the developers to alert them of requested additions or changes to the platform.
 
Please note that you will NOT, under most circumstances, get a reply.
 
Please be sure to leave separate Feedback for each suggestions as they may go to different development teams. Thanks

I created a few albums of photos on my SD card, where I have plenty of room. Those photos all got backed up on Google Photos, so I can see them on-line. But they're gone from my SD card. The only apps I have that could be doing this are Google Photos and my camera, because those are the only photo-related apps on my phone. How can I prevent Google Photos from deleting my photos?

I wanted show show my relatives these photos when I saw them at family gatherings. The two events where I wanted them were in a park, surrounded by hills, with no cell phone access, and in a basement dining hall at a funeral home, also with no cell-phone reception and no wireless networks. So my photos were completely inaccessible, even though I had specifically loaded them onto my SD Card, and had not set Google Photos to back them up! How can I keep them around? (Incidentally, the folders where I put those photos where still there. But they were empty.)

Answer:

Google Photos does not delete pictures unless done or initiated by you. 
Maybe you have used the free-up space option, but as far as I know that only cleans local memory - not the sd - but I have no recent experience with that. 
For showing pictures to others when having no wifi, Google Photos is not a good app when the pictures are at Google only. You just need the Gallery-viewer, but maybe your phone does not have one. 
Sorry, not clear what has happened. 
Wait on other tips.


Answer:

I keep reading that Google Photos does not delete pictures. And I would never have used the "Free up Space" option. Could it be that it used to delete pictures and doesn't anymore? Because they were probably deleted a few years ago. Also, is there any way to put them back on my hard drive in a way that keeps Google Photos from thinking they're duplicates?

Answer:

Actually, I should clarify what I did. Back in 2015, I used a file-transfer application to create folders on my SD card and moved photos into those folders from my desktop computer. I was (at first) delighted to see that Google Photos, or maybe the (now defunct) Gallery app spotted those folders and let me view them as albums. Then, when I couldn't access them off-line, I discovered those SD folders were empty, even though I could see the photos in Google Photos on my desktop computer. So they must have been deleted by either Google Photos or old standard defunct Gallery app.

Answer:

Sorry, I did not saw your addition. 
And because you referenced to Android, I was assuming a micro-sd in your phone. 
That's why you got a wrong answer. 

You probably mean Picasa with the now defunct Gallery-app which could create (or sync) albums on Google Photos until last year indeed. But Picasa does not delete anything unless commanded, it just has copied the contents on sd to the web and that contents is still there, but stored at Google. 
So that only can be viewed online - also in the Google-app on your phone. 

However: the normal procedure with Picasa when importing new pictures from camera-sd is that you may select to free-up the space on that card for new pictures taken with your camera. And if selected, the card got empty indeed - but again: that was your choice. But easily ignored of course. 

I don't know any comfortable solution for viewing Google Photos off-line. That would involve downloading from Google Photos (including recent pictures) to your computer, then copy to a micro-sd which can be inserted in your phone and viewed by a passive Gallery-viewer instead of the GP-app.


Answer:

Thank you for clearing that up. However, your suggestion still scares me. Last night I copied a lot of photos to newly-created folders on my SD card. When I opened Photos, GP had already spotted them and made them accessible. If what you're telling me is right, they should be safe. But I will keep an eye on them. (I also discovered that the old photos are still on my SD card, but they've been moved from the folders to the root level. That somehow makes them inaccessible to Google Photos, which is kind of strange.)

Answer:

Also, you say that you were assuming a micro-sd in my phone, which is why I got a wrong answer. This makes no sense, because your assumption was right. It's a micro-sd card in my phone. I got a huge one (128 Gb) so I could keep photos and music on my phone without streaming.

Answer:

I did again miss your addition - sorry. 
 
In general: pictures deleted on Google Photos by you (just because it are bad or superficious pictures) are deleted from your phone-memory also and because your sd is part of that memory, they also will be removed from sd. 
But apart from that, there is no reason why pictures should get deleted. 
However: you need to do some filemanagement to move the very old pictures into a folder that can be included by Google Photos. 
There also maybe another reason that they refuse to uploaded because they have been uploaded long ago already - so they still may be deep down in your library: type 2015 in the searchbox. 

Don't know what to add more.


Answer:

Here's what I did. I pulled my Micro-SD card out and plugged it my computer and moved files into new folders I created. Then I put it back in my phone. It seems to be working fine.

Answer:

Just found this thread... been having the same problem.
Pixel 3. I've manually created special folders within the "Pictures" folder, which I've done when my phone is connected to my Windows 10 desktop via USB cable. I made a few special folders like this, to quickly and efficiently access certain photo sets regardless of my connectivity at any given moment.
Over time, these photos vanish. And not all at once -- photos that were added to these folders earlier are the first to disappear. It does seem as if it's a background cleanup function, in that regard. However, I have never once done "Free up space.
Ricardo -- you have solved this by deleting the Google Photos app and reinstalling?

Answer:

Hi, Aimee Kaur

Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.

Nevertheless, Google Photos never deletes something spontaneously without any user-initiated action.
Further, that's not going to happen even when the new terms & condition come into force.

The usual reason being deleting the photos from the phone under the misconception that everything is backed up in Google Photos & then we can delete the local copies as per our will.

However, the Sync operation replicates the action we take from one end to the other end also.
In this way, if we delete something from the phone, that deletes the corresponding one on the cloud backup & vice versa.

Still, if your delete action is not older than sixty days, you will find the photos in the bin. Please retrieve those from there immediately. 
After sixty days, items get removed from the bin automatically.
Select all the pics in the Bin & recover those. 
To access the Bin, please tap the library view.

However, if sixty days have already passed from your delete action, then there is no way to recover those pics through Google Photos.

Nevertheless, if your action of deletion is recent, then, you may install to your Android device a deleted photo recovery app (be sure to pick one that doesn't require rooting). https://play.google.com/store/search?q=recover%20deleted%20photos&c=apps and run a scan for anything to recover.

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.

At present, the automated generation of movies contains instrumental music only.
However, you can replace that with your soundtrack.

First, record the narration in Hindi ensuring lip sync.

Next, replace the default music through the following steps.
  • Tap to open the movie.
  • Tap once again to reveal the edit symbol. That will appear in the middle at the bottom.
  • The app will download the movie & present multiple options. Tap the music symbol just below that near the right edge.
  • That will present further options "My music" "Theme music" or "No Music". 
Tap the desired ones & complete the action through further steps.
