Hello guys, I am looking for the faces sorting in photo gallery. Need to say I **** on the Google photos - they have this option only on the cloud and I wanna sort photos in my phone not somewhere on the server. If I remeber right the old versions of android have this option, but now there is nothing like that....

Hi. I use google plus's instant upload feature and share pictures sometimes with friends. It seems like my instant upload and the pictures that are shared as posts in google plus show up twice in gallery. Is there any workaround to this?
Ideas

Do you have an SD card inserted? I found that if I use burst mode on the camera, the photos must save on the local storage but when you use regular modes, they save to the SD card. Thats why I have two folders for camera shots but IDK if you have doubles. I know if photos need to be converted for upload, they make a copy in an appropriate format in a new folder. Just some ideas. Hope it helps.

Where do you see the duplicates? Right next to each other - or at the end of the Gallery folder view down below? If so, do they have the Picasa logo on each folder (the same logo seen on http://picasa.google.com/ )? If so, do this...
Settings > Accounts, Google > then tap on your account [email protected] > scroll to the bottom and uncheck Sync Picasa Web Albums.
Then...
Settings > Application Manager > scroll the tab to ALL > Gallery > Clear Data (don't worry, your photos will stay there. You're just clearing the thumbnails).
Is anybody able to view their panoramic photos in the photos app through daydream? I see only 4 out of 20 of my panoramic pictures. Nothing about these photos is different from the rest. The app simply doesn't show any other photos. One of the photos comes up as extremely blurry and never clears up.
Is there a specific folder that daydream is looking at when choosing which photos to look at through daydream?
I don't like Samsung because they always release unfinished, untested, and unbaked products, and for the first time I'm starting to feel that about Google with the daydream view considering how many other little issues I've noticed. If the software or hardware isn't ready, than you're better off not releasing it, rather than frustrating people.
Hi,
I decided to try out the live photos function in the camera app as it could be fun to have some short video clips when taking pictures of our dog etc
So, I take the picture and it works well to watch the picture and the video in the inbuilt gallery app. However, the photo backup to Google Photos and Flickr just includes the picture and not the video (or, at least, I can't see the videos on Google Photos or Flickr, it might be included in the uploaded file somehow?)
I tried transferring the picture to my pc too for backup there, but same story again, can only see the picture, not the video.
Anyone know if there's a way to fix this so the video part doesn't disappear when I have to free up space on the phone?
I tried deleting a live photo from the phone and redownload it to the phone to see if I then could view the live part in the gallery again. I could not
I've tried googling for a solution to this for LG phones, but I can't find a thing, just a bunch of stuff for iPhone and Pixel phones.
Got a solution of sorts: If I view the video part in the gallery I get an option in the lower right corner to save it as a video and if I do that, that video uploads to Google Photos etc
I need clarification on photos I take on my Pixel 2XL backup process and keeping them in Albums.
I have noticed if I take a pic on my Pixel 2XL it shows it is being backed up then will show “Back-up Complete”. Where is this mystery ‘backup’? Also, if I take a pic, upload it to an album in Google Photos and then delete the pic from the phone, the pic is also deleted from the album! What am I missing here?!?! I want the pic off my phone but still kept in the album within Google Photos.
Yes you are right. Pixel using photos for backup. Phone and photos server try to be sync.
If you delete a pic from your phone with the "galery" or with the photos app It will delete the photo from the server too. and vice versa.
If you want to remove pic from your phone and keep it in the photos. (https://photos.google.com/) you have to go to:
Photos - settings - Back up& Sync. Make sure it is tunerd ON
Then go to Free up device storage
Pictures will be removed from the phone but will be stored with original quality @ https://photos.google.com/
I hope this is what you ask for.
Many thanks! Worked perfectly. Damn I love this phone lol!!!
So I have tried to find the answer with no luck. How do I switch my text app, Facebook, Instagram apps to use Google photos as the default instead of Samsung photo app?
It will use both, just add a shortcut to Google Photos on your homescreen where Samsung Gallery was and use that instead
That definitely didn't solve the problem. It's just using the Samsung photo gallery, and doesn't even give me the option to make Google photos as my default.

Try setting google photos as default app for photos will do.

I am having the same issue. There's no way to change the stock Gallery app to google photos. When I had my pixel, my apps would source directly from Google Photos, and I guess I was spoiled. Even if a photo wasn't downloaded and I selected it to send, it would forward it after it downloaded.
It's a pretty dumb situation honestly with this phone. Your text app you can use the Google photo app, but anything else like , IG or Facebook you have to go into Google photos app and download it to the phone so the picture you want to post goes into the stupid Samsung gallery. I bought the app that someone had suggested to disable the Samsung gallery app and it didn't work. Also when you disable the app, it effects other apps on the phone, so you are pretty much screwed. Besides the fingerprint scanner, I think this whole, not being able to just use the Google photo app as default for everything is the next biggest ****ty thing about this phone. I still love the phone, but you pay the big bucks and you still have to deal with issues like this, when phones half the price offer these two things better. Oh well I guess?
