About this app

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

- ā€œThe best photo product on Earthā€ – The Verge
- ā€œGoogle Photos is your new essential picture appā€ – 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. Additionally every Google Account comes with 15 GB of storage and you can choose to automatically back up all your photos and videos in High quality or Original quality. You can then access them from any connected device and on photos.google.com.

With the official app, you get:

15 GB OF STORAGE: Back up 15 GB of photos and videos and access them from any device and photos.google.com—your photos are safe, secure, and private to you. All photos and videos you back up in high quality before June 1, 2021 will not count toward your Google Account storage.

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.

NO ADS: Google Photos doesn't sell your photos, videos, or personal information to anyone and we don't use your photos and videos for advertising.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.*

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.

great app but since the latest update, the undo button after deleting lingers too long, blocking any functionality in subsequent images. I would like to go quickly through my library and delete photos one by one without having to wait for the blocking undo banner to disappear. this was possible in the previous version. definitely an inconvenience now.

There was a time, when I really liked this app but nowadays some features need a subscription and it permanently asks to enable cloud backup. It's time to find a better alternative. Actually, Google apps in general are getting worse and worse and less user friendly during the last months. Horrible! Update: The app is getting worse and worse. Now when you delete a picture you need to wait around 10 seconds until you can trigger any other action on any other picture except undoing the delete.

Recently, after deleting photos, the "Moved to Trash/Undo" banner hovered far too long w/ no way to dismiss it & delete next pic. Thnx Google for a quick fix in response to my review rant!😁 Last update to Automatic Highlights or "look back" reels feels downgraded, w/landscape-oriented pix smushed into tiny portrait mode versions & we can't view the individual pix within the presentation. Also, please provide quick & easy option to skip trash & permanently delete certain selected photos.

Hi Sarah. Thank you for letting us know! We've resolved the issue with "Move to Trash" banner and it should now work as expected.

What's new

We are introducing a new storage management tool to help you easily manage the photos that count toward your storage quota. This tool will surface photos or videos you might want to delete — like blurry photos, screenshots and large videos.
