Description

Google Photos is the home for all your photos and videos, automatically organized and easy to share.

- “The best photo product on Earth” – The Verge

- “Google Photos is your new essential picture app” – Wired

The official Google Photos app is made for the way you take photos today and includes essential features like shared albums, automatic creations and an advanced editing suite. You won’t have to worry about storage either as you can choose to automatically back up all your photos and videos for free in high quality. You can then access them from any connected device and on photos.google.com.

With the official app, you get:

FREE HIGH QUALITY STORAGE: Back up unlimited photos and videos for free for up to 16 megapixels and 1080p HD and access them from any device and photos.google.com – your photos are safe, secure, and private to you.

FREE UP SPACE: Never worry about running out of space on your phone again. Photos that are safely backed up can be removed from your device's storage in just a tap.

SMART AUTOMATIC ALBUMS: Automatically get a new album with just your best shots after an event or trip, then invite others to add their photos.

AUTOMATIC CREATIONS: Bring photos to life with automatically created movies, collages, animations, panoramas, and more from your photos. Or easily create them yourself.

ADVANCED EDITING SUITE: Transform photos with a tap. Use intuitive and powerful photo editing tools to apply content-aware filters, adjust lighting, and more.

SHARING SUGGESTIONS: With smart sharing suggestions, giving your friends the photos you took of them is painless. And they can add their photos, too, so you’ll finally get the photos you’re actually in.

FAST AND POWERFUL SEARCH: Your photos are now searchable by the people, places and things in them — no tagging required.

LIVE ALBUMS: Select the people and pets you want to see and Google Photos will automatically add photos of them as you take them, no manual updates needed.*

PHOTO BOOKS: Create a photo book in just minutes from your phone or computer. You can also see suggested photo books based on your best shots from a trip or period of time.*

GOOGLE LENS: Search the hard-to-describe and get stuff done, right from a photo. Copy and translate text, identify plants and animals, add events to your calendar, find products online, and more.

SEND PHOTOS IN SECONDS: Instantly share photos with any contact, email, or phone number.

SHARED LIBRARIES: Grant a trusted person access to all of your photos.

You can also upgrade storage for your Google Account, used for Original Quality photos and videos by subscribing to Google One. Subscriptions start at $1.99/month for 100 GB in the US. Pricing and availability can vary by region.

Customer Reviews

September 4, 2018

Saves all of my pictures and allows me to search through them easily. I love that it shows me pictures from that day in previous years. Only complaint is I wish it would let me add custom tags to pictures.
September 4, 2018

All my memories in one place and accessible from anywhere at anytime, awesome! Been a great resource so many times especially on one recent instance where I had to factory reset my phone because I was completely locked out...Glad I had automatic sync turned on!
September 4, 2018

This has been great on every phone except for my Huawei P20 Pro. Scrolling feels like I'm using Android Froyo, it's terrible. Plz fix this problem Google, I pay for my storage and have heavily invested into Google photos.
September 4, 2018

Made me a book for my husband and it made a 50 year old man cry. Google Photo is great no "THEY'RE THE BEST". Tammy Harmon
September 4, 2018

Good, but only thing is I have Moto g5s plus in that this application is directly connected to camera there is no other option to change it. It is our choice to do any change in our mobile it is not allowing to do. It's our privacy we don't want every photos to upload, of course i can sort out but I don't have time to do that every time. Please fix this problem otherwise it was a awesome app.
September 4, 2018

These guys have done some great work with this app Should also consider putting family in its specific folder or search.... I love this app The downside of the latest version is its inability to keep recognising people! Please work on it😢
September 4, 2018

I love Google Photos! It backs up all my memories and more! Being able to look back on the years is awesome! And the friendly reminders, showing memories from years ago is a great perk as well. ❤ I'll never not use Google Photos.
September 4, 2018

Love this app. I love seeing the memories and videos it makes. It has saved tons of pics that could of been lost because a phone broke.
September 4, 2018

Nokia 7 Plus: Cannot export motion photo as GIF/ Video/ Still Photo. Error says failed to export.
September 30, 2017

I have never reviewed a single app but this one is just amazing. This makes organizing large photo collections a snap. Sharing is great and the backup even better. Love it.
September 30, 2017

It should have facility to rotate the camera pic while viewing. Presently it requires edition for rotation and it saves different copy of same photo. This issue needs to be addressed.
September 30, 2017

An improvement of services which for me, is one of the most important and of great utility. Seamlessly working. Option to include any folder for upload should be available. thank you very much.
September 30, 2017

plz add a Thumbanails option for each video just like youtube video.. otherwise it is very dificult to identifie the uploaded video before its play..
September 30, 2017

Brilliant, love it! Love the video compilations and special effect photos. Fab way to keep your stuff from getting lost 👍🏻
September 30, 2017

I love the movies they put together from the photos & videos I take. It's a nice surprise to get the notification that a movie is ready for me to watch.
September 30, 2017

I don't want some video to be uploaded in photo. Have disabled it but it keeps on uploading it. Pathetic.
September 30, 2017

Выдаёт постоянно сообщение "Приложение Google Photo остановлено! Причём как при запущенном приложении, так и когда не запущено. Устраните пожалуйста, все фотографии и видео в облаке Гугла, невозможно использовать
September 30, 2017

Love it Wow i enjoy it while using this app now i don't afraid of loosing photos and vedios thank you so much google photos
September 30, 2017

Never miss any moment with auto backup feature and love the animations & videos created by assistance.
September 30, 2017

Google is giving u online storage according to your device. When I had 64 gb oneplus one they gave 65 gb & now they reduced it to 15gb..
September 30, 2017

Superb app ....n sharing function is fantastic...all my family photos ia syncs in each of us phones loved it
September 30, 2017

They made a video of my cats called Meow Video. I love it! Cat Lady Approved 😻
September 30, 2017

The program icon is missing (shows Android icon) on Android O beta. Annoying.
September 30, 2017

Great automatic back up / repository for photos and videos. Use it a lot for sharing with friends and family!
September 30, 2017

Its great that o can have unlimited storage with google photos, but when I upload photos / videos to create an album, I see a dialogue saying its uploading and I can't do anything else in the app, it would be better if it did this in the background and I can navigate through the app.
September 30, 2017

Fantastic app total piece of mind knowing your treasured photos are backed up safe 😎
September 30, 2017

Love how it automatically puts albums, videos, and pictures together. Couldn't do it better myself!
September 30, 2017

Google photos, better than drop box in that you get free unlimited storage for photos and videos backed up to your own online google account that no one but you can access. Save those photos forever.
September 30, 2017

Google Photos keeps getting better and better... that's 6 stars from me!
September 30, 2017

Quite possibly the best app from Google right now. I can't live without it!!
September 30, 2017

It doesn't sync my photos in background, it only sync when I open the app & pauses when I close the app
September 30, 2017

Cons - After saving photos from any application the all images mess with camera folder.
September 30, 2017

Can't remove duplicate photos from Google photo. Further not working for free space also. I have tried so many times, still it says can't remove 354 photos.
September 30, 2017

when ever I try to make movie using my music it doesn't works . It only makes movie with theme music😖😖😖😖. Plz help me
September 30, 2017

It's awesome! Works perfect. Love having my pics at my finger tips
September 30, 2017

A very useful app but my only concern is about all this photos and security
September 30, 2017

The best gallery app across Android and IOS Nothing can come close
September 30, 2017

Tears literally tears at the touch of a button. Thanks Google 4 reminding me of how much Memories can sooth ur soul..
September 30, 2017

Photos remain saved Memories are shown Backups keep photos safe Easy to navigate Taking photos can be difficult at times but overall quality is a 5-star review from me
September 30, 2017

I am in love with this Life wouldn't have been so easy without this I dont need to worry about storage anymore No more pop-ups saying "Insufficient storage" and the dreadful thoughts that come with it This is awesome ❤
September 30, 2017

Fast and easy for sharing between my devices. Would be better if when backing up from a certain folder, the folder structure is not destroyed. I got all my pics neatly arranged on folders and I prefer if the back up is still in the arrangement.
September 30, 2017

I enjoy the animations provided by app.its best part of it.loved it...it brings memory back to life...
September 30, 2017

cool. reminds me of all the photos taken that I forget to look at!
September 30, 2017

The update is awesome... Customisation shortcuts and sharing is easy... Like this app very much..
September 30, 2017

This is a great app but the problem that I have is I can't find some pics or they get lost somewhere in the gallery. I would of rated it more
September 30, 2017

It's a very useful app for keeping your memories safe and secure.
September 30, 2017

It's an amazing app, as it brings back your past memories!
September 30, 2017

Why is the Chromecast feature missing? Do I really need to use an external app to cast my photos?
September 30, 2017

A really clever and useful assistant, helpful editing and sharing. I miss the trading and face recognition that Picasa had, and I'd like to embed my own pictures more easily in my own website though.
September 30, 2017

It is good to have this app....but some times tidious to manage the space........
September 30, 2017

Probably the best app ever expanding the realm of vision and access on smarterphones
September 30, 2017

It is the best application when u want to reminisce the past through photos
September 30, 2017

How to back up my photos in google photos so that i can open it in other gadgets, tq.
September 30, 2017

As a tech rep for TMobile, Google photos has helped me countless times help people find, save and retrieve photos while troubleshooting phones and setting up new devices.
September 30, 2017

Easily one of the features I use the most on multiple platforms
September 30, 2017

Can I delete all the photos from my device after I backed them up to Google photos?
September 30, 2017

I love the random video compilations it makes, but would love to have more photo features built in (draw, rotate without having to go to edit function).
September 30, 2017

Will only access pictures taken with my phone and hence is useless for combining with other doenloads
September 30, 2017

It's amazing how each click is saved and even send us regular updates on an album or story made out of our pics Frm past to till date.
September 30, 2017

Whenevr i am going to backup my photos .its become slow or failed and my internet connection alwys good ...why this happns alwys dont know ..plz fix this issu asap ..m using asus zenfone 5
September 30, 2017

The best app Google puts out as of now
September 30, 2017

So far so good ... I have yet to see any bugs, love the styling features. Thumbs up
September 30, 2017

It just works. No better review I can give!
September 30, 2017

Unable to select which folders to sync. (The list of folders failed to load)
September 30, 2017

Always very useful for proper photos, scanned docs, screenshots, reminders, notes, albums, search features, sharing -- Wish List: printing features: for individual pics, or entire albums as when printing a contact sheet in various photo packages..
September 3, 2018

The app crashes at all the times. One photo gets uploaded and it crashes saying google photos closed, can't see any option other than providing feedback. Other than that, loved the app
September 3, 2018

It took 30 minutes to move 36 photos from one album folder to another folder. That is ridiculous!! Your obviously moving each photo right through the albums from the bottom oldest to the top most recent photo. If you have 4000 photos in an album then that is going take a very long time. I didn't have this problem with the Moto Gallery, it was very fast and efficient. They obviously dropped the newest photo next to the most recent when moving photos from folder to folder. Yours is the other way round. Please sort this unnecessary issue out or I shall have to download Moto Gallery. Many thanks 👍
September 3, 2018

Very best app ever One major issue is Photos are not back up automatically in vivo v9 phones, each n everytim it's uploading after i open the Google photos app, plz help
September 3, 2018

Possibly the best app ever created when used with the cloud. It's crazy how I pull up 20 plus years of photo and videos in seconds from multiple devices. So much better than anything apple can do.
September 3, 2018

It's nice. And they don't delete my nudes like stupid photobucket does!
September 3, 2018

Very easy to use. Convenient and helpful with giving ideas. Complete lifesaver and very much time savvy. I love how it helps with advise on keeping up. Couldn't get any better to me.
September 3, 2018

I don't like it automatically generating stylized photos. I just got a sunset picture stylized in black and white, and it isn't intuitive to delete the unwanted pictures.
September 3, 2015

Easier Navigation More photo editing options should be added. Edit geolocation and adding captions to a photo or a video would be a great function to see in the later updates. An option to clear search history too. Now an option to change album cover is great and adding description too. Easier to search now
September 3, 2015

Great
September 3, 2015

This app is the best app to used because it is Easy and simple more than any other one.
September 3, 2015

Loved
September 3, 2015

Google photos The old app was WAY better...im quite disappointed . .please give the old back.....
September 3, 2015

Amazing Keep up the good work
September 3, 2015

Missing lots of photos
September 3, 2015

Oppo R831K Excellent application!
September 3, 2015

Samsung note 3 I don't like that it doubles pictures. you have to go back and delete the extra pictures. Tried to edit a blurry picture from a month ago but there's absolutely no options to do that. It's okay although it seems there's less options for editing your pictures
September 3, 2015

Hated it
September 3, 2015

I like it
September 3, 2015

Super Wow
September 3, 2015

Voncile Photo
September 3, 2015

Download Make download to mobile select all mark it easy for as.
September 3, 2015

Needs improvement While selecting multiple photos unable to enlarge any image. In earlier version it was there.
September 3, 2015

Easy Navigation But... It provides easy navigation by creating thumbnails of day, month and year. There is no option to Access individual Albums, which was present in the previous G+ integrated Photos. If that option would have been there, it would have been more realistic. Still cannot find Individual Albums to Rearrange as it was with it previously.
September 3, 2015

Shown slow.
September 3, 2015

Good
September 3, 2015

Lost photos I took loads photos of me and my dog and for some reason there are no longer there. However photos from months back are there so something has gone wrong. Google please look into this i would like my pics back.
September 3, 2015

Nothing works Detection, backup, anything. It just does not do anything on my phone. Everything I try to do is a massive troubleshooting effort with little help from Google. Crap.
September 3, 2015

Saving Edits I can edit my pics just fine. In fact, I love that feature for each picture readily available. After I edit and click "save", error message appears 'unable to save changes' ...so I will probably be deleting this app.
September 3, 2015

Creepy spyware Doesn't really immediately delete files. It keeps uploading them unless you actually delete them from another app. Some photos reappeared after deletion from trash too!
September 3, 2015

It backs up your pictures for free BUT you can only use the "good" quality selection (16 megapixels or less). So there's that.
September 3, 2015

Great improvement It has my tbt pics created for me to just post. The search makes looking for pple, days, items, places, videos, and events a snap. Thanks
September 3, 2015

Fucks....itself Google is just embarrassed me...with all its app ....this is the perfect exam no edit failed many tym
September 3, 2015

Excellent search, minimal editing The power of Google search makes it easy to find and share images, organise albums and create collages, animations and movies. Basic editing is good, but filters need a refresh to be more intuitive or useful.
September 3, 2015

Great App in general. Occasionally, couldn't open the camera: needed to reboot. Please fix this!
September 3, 2015

I love to have Google apps but Google photos is worst I have ever used .Focus have really awesome feature and easy .Google must add some good feature for album viewing and pining.
