Google photos search taken by5/15/2023 Google doesn’t provide an option to sync only a specific folder from Google Drive. To me, this was not an option, because I didn’t want all the images and videos from Google Drive to be synced. You can set it up to sync images and videos from Google Drive with Google Photos. Google also provides a “Backup and sync tool” tool. Not sure how well it will work if I need to upload original images and videos. ![]() I used it to upload minified versions of all my images in chunks. Uploading process doesn’t include review process and doesn’t prevent you from uploading duplicates, so nothing fancy. In Google Photos web application there is an “Upload” button. I had to wait for another month in order for the rest of my library to be uploaded. Web version though lacks any editing filtering capabilities and I never used it. On the other side, Apple Photos exists in all three incarnations - mobile, desktop and web. Taking how powerful web applications can be these days, probably it’s totally fine and a valid decision to from Google not to build a desktop app. Google Photos has only mobile and web versions. There is no desktop Google Photos application. So I installed Google Photos on my iPhone and was going to do the same on my mac and here was first differentiation I came upon. The best way to learn something is to start using it, to work with it. This is how I started my investigation if Google Photos suits me and how I can migrate to it. ![]() Considering an iPhone-vs-Pixel topic you inevitably need to consider Apple Photos vs Google Photos topic. So I began thinking of purchasing a new phone and Google Pixel was one of the options along the iPhones. I wanted Apple to teach me how I can use my photos differently.Īlmost everything with Apple Photos suited me well up to a moment when my iPhone started to show symptoms of its age and its low storage 32GB began to irritate me reminding me often of having not enough space. I wanted Apple to analyze and apply all its AI power to my photo library so that I can look at my photos at a different angle. Its features like face recognition were mind-blowing to me. I’ve been a user of Apple Photos for 8 months now, all collection of photos of my family is there.
