Google Photos was created from scratch and released in 2015 to deal with the new reality of people taking thousands of photos with their smartphones. Copying
all of those to your computer, and manually organizing them is just TOO much work. Google Photos will use the cloud to privately store your lifetime of photos and, using artificial intelligence, it will create groupings by people, places, and things. It will allow you to search for any photo or video you want just be asking for something that is in the picture. Google Photos is designed to do all the work for you. You only have 2 jobs:
- See to it that all photos from your life get uploaded to your Google Photos account. This includes your smartphone photos as well as other cameras, collections on computer hard drives, and printed photos.
- Separate the best from the rest using "Favorites" and/or "Albums" (you don't even have to do this if you're happy with the highlighted "Memories" that Google Photos
creates.
Google Photos does not offer old-school photo management features like renaming the files, creating folders and sub-folders, or storing photos on a computer.
