Google Photos is a service for storing photos and videos. Many smartphone owners use this service because, first of all, it’s quite convenient, and secondly, it has a free, unlimited cloud for storing your photos and videos.

These albums make it easy to share important moments with friends, as well as save more personal moments just for you.

What is Google Photos

Users these days have no shortage of similar services that automatically upload backups of photos and can provide access to them on any device. So, at a quick glance, Flickr, Dropbox, OneDrive, iCloud, and many others can be named at once. However, Google Photos quickly began to stand out against them, the number of active users per month exceeded 500 million people, and this after only two years of existence.

After launching the app, it’s strongly recommended to enable auto-loading photos to the cloud and synchronizing the gallery, if you don’t do this, then some of the app features will simply be unavailable to you.

The service from Google offers a really unlimited backup of all the photos (and videos) that are on your device. However, there’s a caveat. They all have to be less than 16 megapixels in quality for them to be truly backed up in unlimited quantities. Images in higher resolution that you upload to the cloud will automatically be converted to 16 megapixels, also the quality of clips above 1080p will be downgraded.

What is an image search by object (label)

You should definitely take advantage of this great feature. Google Photos now supports the classification of images according to common terms recognized by the system in photos. Google automatically associates certain tags (labels, objects) to images in order to quickly compose a relevant answer to the user’s query. For example, enter the word “Forest” into the search and the results will show all photos of forests, trees, or leaves.

Also, you can specify these labels for the images yourself. You can mark people or pets in photos recognized by the Google Photos service, and they will be combined under a common label. You can see them if you go to the “Objects” album.

Other additional tags have been added to the Albums: Places, Videos, Collages, Animations, Movies. Accordingly, you can use searches on these albums, such as location-based, geo-tagged searches, allowing you to easily find all of your vacation photos.
