    I have pics from 2003 on my photos.google.com account that is free with a gmail address and is auto uploaded every time I take a pic. You're just solving a problem that already has a simple solution.

  • Almost lost all my vacation photos due to this stupid feature of Google photos

    So if backup is turned on on your device and you delete a photo from your photos.google.com, that photo not only is delete from your Google drive account but also is deleted from your pixel device. I almost lost all my vacation photos due to this unbelievably stupid feature. When i delete a photo from photo.google.com due to 10 million notifications that my google account storage is full it does not mean I want that photo to be deleted from my god damn pixel with hundreds of gigabytes of free storage. Thanks god i had already sent the photos to my gf through telegram.

    The confusion may have arisen because Google Photos allows you to delete photos from your Pixel, but keep them accessible from photos.google.com.

    Did you not have it set up to sync your photos to your Google account using the Photos app? Check photos.google.com to see if they're there.

    After a road trip, or taking photos for a project, etc, I go to photos.google.com, select, download, and delete photos, and put them into folders on my computer, added them to web pages or whatever. (folders like "2003 June trip to Santa Fe").

  • Uploading photos from the drive app: I did exactly as they asked, and it's not working

    Assuming you followed the instructions from photos.google.com (rather than in the mobile app, since I cannot find this in the Android app at least), under Utilities > Backup photos from your computer, which instructs you to download the GDrive app and then select a folder on your computer to backup to GDrive, it is working correctly. That is, you will backup the folder of photos to GDrive, and it will NOT be visible in GPhotos, either the app or on the web at photos.google.com. Google is confusing you because they (annoyingly) use the word "backup" to mean different things in different places in GPhotos. Really, the intention of the Utilities backup is to get you to use GDrive, totally independently from GPhotos (i.e. they want you to use all their apps). And, legitimately, it is providing a *second* "backup" of your files.

    But... here's the hickup: google photos at photos.google.com show NO SIGN of the newly uploaded photos. In other words: it deleted the photos from the drive, recognized them as photos/videos when the format was compatible (jpg, etc, but not the weird formats, which is FINE), but they do NOT show under the photos web or app interface.
