Many of you know I strongly recommend using Google Photos as a cloud-based backup. Actually, it is recommended you have your pictures in 3 places - 1) on your phone, 2) on your computer or external storage device, and 3) in the cloud (iCloud, Google Photos, Amazon Photos, etc.) Google Photos can be downloaded to ANY smartphone.
I like Google Photos because once the app is downloaded and stored on your phone, it runs seamlessly in the background always uploading new photos as they are taken.
Last week two new features were added to Google Photos: 1) Memories and 2) the ability to order photos to be printed (to WalMart, CVS, etc.) directly from the app.
1) Memories in the Google Photos app are similar to what you see on Facebook, Instagram, etc., only you are the only one that can "see" them. They will appear at the top of your app in circular previews.
2) The ability to send pictures directly to Walmart, CVS, etc. for printing is a really convenient feature! Previously, I used the WalMart app on my phone, but that adds an additional step in the process. Now, I can order my Walmart prints using the Google Photos app!
It's worth checking out! Open Google Photos on your phone today and take a look. And, if you haven't installed Google Photos yet, do it today.
