Question: How do I get my photos from my old phone that has been turned off or lost

I have tried cloud photos and back up photos Google photos

Hi Andrea,

If the photos are not on the https://photos.google.com website (be sure to sign in with all your Google accounts if you have more than one), not much can unfortunately be done to recover them.

In case you lost the device it's worth trying to locate it with Android's Find My Device tool https://www.google.com/android/find

Welcome to the Google Photos Help Forum.

Could you please confirm where are you checking the photos in your Google Drive? Are you referring to the photos of the Google Photos folder under My Drive?

If yes, please try checking the size of the photo through Google Drive and Google Photos by following the below steps:

Go to Google Drive/Google Photos.
Select a photo.
Click on View details/Info.
Check the size of the individual photo.

In the meantime, please share a screenshot with me so that I can look into the matter and take it forward. Also, redact any personal information while sharing the screenshot.

Let me know if this helps.

Best,
Emma

Answer:

Thanks Emma for answering my question. I did check my photo thru Google drive/my photos. It seems that my older photos are mostly saved in a lower resolution than the"original" I have in my settings. Not all, but alot. Like I said, I'm confused as to why. Here a screenshot of photos and then info as you requested. I have a HD camera on my Android phone and the pics take at a much higher resolution I was having them printed when a warning came up said the photos were low res. and will not print well. Thanks.

Answer:

I forgot, the dates are all wrong as well. The original dates I took them are gone and not sure how they are being dated now. Seem to be in groups of one specific date but it doesn't coincide with anything familiar to me.

Answer:

Hi Cindy,

Thanks for posting back.

I've made the team aware of this issue and they are looking into it. I will get back to you once I've an update on this.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Emma

Answer:

Thanks Emma. I appreciate you for taking the time to try and help me figure this out. I wish I had just kept backing my photos up to a flash drive like I always have and I wouldn't be freaking out as I am now. I stupidly deleted most of these photos from my phone after they had been backed up as the app's assistant suggested. Now I see that was a huge mistake on my part without also backing up to an SD card or any removeable drive. But to my defense, I checked the pictures in the Google photos folder in my Drive storage and they were all "original" resolution and so thought it was ok to go ahead and free some space on my phone...I have stopped backing up to Google drive for the moment until this is fixed. I am attaching another screenshot for you of a recent pic from my phone & one of the info showing how high my resolution should be for my pics. Not the low 500's like they are now in Drive. Thanks again.

Answer:

Hi Cindy,

Appreciate your response.

Could you please check the backup quality of your photos through photos.google.com/settings to find out which quality if selected for your photos?

If it is still set to Original Quality, then nothing should be changed from our end as Google does not automatically change the photo quality.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Emma

Answer:

I have checked it but I did again to be sure and it is still set to save at "original" quality. I saved a few new pics last night and as of now, they are backed up at "original" quality. As for the older pictures that didn't, it doesn't look like I'm going to figure out what happened OR be able to change it. I'll be sure to never delete from my phone unless I have a "backup of my backup" in the future. I am going to request this question be closed so as not to take up anymore of your time. Thank you though for trying. I appreciate you.

Hi Loretta,

>>>> If I log out or erase the app do I loose all my photos and videos?

You should be okay if you change the settings in the Google Photos app to turn off Back up and sync and then Uninstall the app.

DO NOT delete the images in the Google Photos app on your phone.

Since it is so easy to do, I would recommend completely backing up all the images in your phone using your Lightning cable and a computer.

After the Google Photos app has been deleted (and assuming that you don't have any other Google syncing utilities), you should be able to delete the images in Google Photos at: https://photos.google.com/u/0/ (using a browser on a computer or a mobile device) - do a few low priority images first and make sure that they still exist on your phone after they are deleted in Google's cloud (they should, we are just being extra cautious).

It is always a good idea to store important images in more than one place / tool. My photos are in Google Photos, on my laptop, and on multiple external disk drives (not connected to any computer or network).

Answer:

Hi, Paula Staats

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

To entirely delete the photos stored on the cloud, please follow these steps on your Android phone.

First, turn off backup & sync.
Next, uninstall or disable the Google Photos app on your phone.
Next, open the link https://photos.google.com through any browser on your phone. Log into your Google account if the browser asks you to do so.
After that, go on deleting the pics one by one. You can speed up this step if you do so through a desktop PC. There, you can select multiple pics through the combination of the Shift + Mouse key.
Once you have deleted all the pics, empty the trash bin also.

However, if the collection is sizable, you may not see the intermediate stop of storing the pics in the Trash.

Once done, please block the webpage https://photos.google.com within all browsers available on your phone & desktop PC so that you do not visit that site again accidentally.

Answer:

@Paula

Not clear why you want out of Google because it is your fully private storage for safety against the usual smartphone-drama's: damaged, lost, stolen or too old.

But your phone (and computer) should be private also, else anyone can cause additional drama's.

So how do you think that you are going to backup your valuable pictures then?

Probably you have no idea how much carefull work that will be every week...

Question: I have deleted many photos but still photos is showing 17gb out of 15gb.

I have done nothing.

Since years we don't understand why people are ruïning their backup just for painfully staying below 15 GB for free, because we can't reset the Google counter.

Please do tell us the 3 numbers you can see at one.google.com/storage in the Chrome-app.

Maybe we do understand then what is wrong and can help.

PS: check your gallery if the deleted photos also are deleted there and if they can be recovered.

Answer:

Two things..double check that you actually deleted photos. You could have archived them instead of deleting.

After deletion of photos or files you may need to turn phone off and back on again to show the photos or files deleted.

Answer:

Do you want back these pictures?

If yes, look in the trash on the Library-page of the Google-Photos app - if they are still there, you can select them and then choose Recover.

Thereafter do tell us the 3 numbers you can see at http://one.google.com/storage

Answer:

I don't want any pic back, my trash is cleared.

Answer:

Okay, then it is clear by now that Drive and Gmail play no important role in your life, else you easily could have 10 GB there also and then deleting in Photos hardly helps.

I don't know what you can do with the button Free up account storage, but you can try at least.

Else use the Recover storage button on photos.google.com/settings in the Chrome-app and then wait a day and then check if the number at Photos is down towards zero.

And change your backupsetting into Storage saving instead of Original to prevent this problem.

Or just start paying if you need Original quality for something.

No Google here - just volonteers.

Good luck

Question: Recover deleted photos and videos

Recover photos and videos

Hello làtéràl bóy ,

If you have uploaded photos on google photos and deleted it please take a look at the below info.

Following is text from the official Google Photos Help page about deleting and restoring photos and videos:

Restore photos & videos
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 .
At the bottom, tap Library Trash .
Touch and hold the photo or video you want to restore.
At the bottom, tap Restore. The photo or video will be back:
In your phone’s gallery app
In your Google Photos library
In any albums it was in
If the item is not in your trash, it may be permanently deleted.

Important:
If you delete a photo or video that’s backed up in Google Photos, it will stay in your trash for 60 days.
If you delete an item from your Android device without it being backed up, it will stay in your trash for 60 days.
If you see a photo or video in Google Photos that you think you deleted, it might be on a removable memory card. To delete it, use your device’s gallery app.
Empty your trash
If you see a request to "Delete permanently" when you try to move an item to trash, your trash is full. Your trash can hold 1.5GB.

Important: If you empty your trash, you permanently delete any items in your trash.

Don't see the photo or video?
If a deleted photo or video isn't in trash, you can’t restore it. You won't be able to restore a photo if:
You moved it to trash more than 60 days ago.
You moved it to trash, then emptied your trash.
You permanently deleted it from your trash.
You permanently deleted it from your device’s Gallery app, without backing it up first.

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:

Learn how to find your photos

Delete & restore your photos & videos

Restore recently deleted or archived items

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.

Files that existed only on your phone, ones that were never uploaded to the cloud, cannot be recovered or restored by a cloud storage service. Simply put, Google can't help you recover files it never had in the first place.

Thanks.

I allowed auto backup and sync for my photos. However, certain album on my Android phone is not displayed on Google photo. For instance, my android phone has 4 albums but Google photos is only showing up 2 albums

Answer:

If these problematic "albums" are not shown straight below Pictures on device on the Library-page of the Google Photos app, they are ignored by Google for reasons unknown to me.

But if they are shown, they can be opened and then the backup-switch can be set ON unless your general backup is set to OFF.

Be aware that what is called "albums" in the Samsung Gallery are folder, while stories are albums which are a property of that Gallery and never are shown at Google.

Answer:

Thank you for your help! In this case, is there anyway that i can back up the photos in a folder for both Google Photo and Samsung phone. I am thinking of getting Samsung Tablet so that it can automatically sync across the devices for the folder/album. It was pretty easy using icloud across apple devices but i cant seem to get a solution for Samsung devices.

Answer:

You did not answer my question if these two "albums" are shown under Pictures on device etc.

If you use the same Google-account on your future tablet, you can see your phone-photos in the Photos-app on the tablet - of course. But that does not mean that they are automatically downloaded into the local gallery of the tablet and that is not necessary at all. But you may need to download some for some app.

You should learn to create albums within the Google-app, because these also can be seen on the tablet an can be shared with family and friends.

Answer:

My album on Samsung phone show up in google photo. But only 4 out of 8 is shown on google photo. As for album created on google photo, it is not shown on my device (which I suppose is correct)

Answer:

First it were 2 out of 4, now it are 4 out of 8 - sorry this can't be followed.

And part of them can be coupled to app and are hidden for Google Photos.

Or are they created by you?

Again: stories in Samsung never are seen by Google because it are no device folders.

Albums at Google are in cloud and will survive your phone - "albums" on Samsung not.

Answer:

@Roseanne

That is an unrelated question, but Samsung Cloud will be stopped soon or is stopped already.

So if you do nothing, it automatically is over - but I don't know about any payments.

Sorry

On your Android phone or tablet, open the Google Photos app .
At the top left, tap Menu.
Click on Trash.
Touch and hold the photo or video you want to recover.
At the bottom, tap Restore. The photo or video will be back:

I was browsing my albums on the iPad via the Photos app. There were 4 albums listed. One of these was listed as "Untitled Album" or something to that affect. The other 3 albums were ones that I had created. Thinking that this was one that I had created on accident (I had done this before due to the clunky way you add photos to a shared album) I attempted to delete the album. When I got back to the main album screen I now only had 2 albums. It's like the untitled one was somehow linked to one of my existing ones?

None of my photos are actually missing, but all of the ones that were shared by others I now do not have access to. Is there a way to restore these without having to recreate/reshare everything?

Answer:

Hi there,

Welcome to the Google Photos Help Community.

It looks like you've accidentally deleted 2 of the albums because there isn't any option to link one album to other album.

Since you've mentioned that the missing photos of the album are shared by other, unfortunately, there isn't any way to restore if you haven't saved them to your library.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

My app is not working when I try to download photos and when I try to share albums. Each time for the last 3 hours when I select to download certain pictures, Google photos tells me to wait for a video to process (these pictures are not telephotos). Also, during the same time frame, when I try to share albums, Google keeps telling me to wait a few minutes (I have waited a few hours by now). What should I do?

Answer:

You don't tell us if that obstructing video is a 4 GB 4K movie shooted by you own camera which easily can take more then 3 hours for getting backupped and thereby making any further online actions like sharing albums and uploading other pictures impossible.

But because Google broke its connection to the web recently, you need a workaround for that particular task.

Permanently deleted video/photos can no longer be recovered on Google Photos.

But there is a third party app that you may try to use to recover your permanently deleted photos/videos.

You may download the File Recovery from the Google Play Store(Android Device only).

That app can recover permanently deleted files(photos/videos). I'm also using it.

Hi Jagadis,

I’m sorry, it’s not possible to recover photos permanently deleted from the Google Photos Trash. However, 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.
