- How To Save Your Work in Snapseed From Google
The way that the Save button in Snapseed from Google functions differs between iOS and Android devices.
I explore these differences and the way that they impact your mobile image processing workflow in this tutorial.
I start with the options that Snapseed for iOS offers first in this tutorial and then I dig into how things differ on an Android device.
Key Points:
- I strongly recommend using the Save A Copy option whenever possible if you are improving your mobile images with Snapseed on an iOS device. Choosing the Save A Copy option in Snapseed for iOs protects your original photo plus it creates a new image that includes all of your Snapseed changes.
On iOS devices, you can open up this file at a later date with Snapseed and continue to improve your image without losing any of your editing flexibility.
- Snapseed on Android devices always uses a version of the Saves A Copy command. There is no option to overwrite your original image in Snapseed for Android.
Unfortunately though, when Snapseed saves a copy of your work on an Android device it does not create a file that you can continue to revise.
If you are using an Android device then you need to be aware that you cannot easily undo a mistake, without starting all over, after you have saved your edits and moved on to another photo in Snapseed.

Thank you-this tutorial is verry helpful👍
Thank you for the positive feedback on this video tutorial. Most appreciated!
It's only now that I started using a second device that is an Android, and was surprised by this issue since I was so used to my iOS device. Thanks for clarifying!
You are welcome. Generally, there is little difference between iOS and Android but this happens to be one of those places where we have to adjust our workflow to match the unique characteristics of each device's operating system.
@@FocusPhotoSchool Thanks for the reply. Have you found a way to basically preserve the edits even after moving the photos off your iPad? It would be great if there's a way to move the files to the computer for safekeeping and be able to go back to it much later and reedit, kinda like Lightroom. It's for this reason that I still haven't transitioned to using Snapseed fulltime.
Great tutorial. Very clearly explained, very clearly enunciated. Thanks.
Thank you!
Thanks for video. I came across it trying to figure out why I can't save my file to Google Photos. Guess I have to keep looking for a tool that will do that.
It is kind of ironic that an app made by Google works better on an iOS device...
It is indeed ironic but in this case I believe that it is the was that the underlying operating systems work-- iOS vs. Android--that makes the difference.
My Samsung Galaxy Tab s7 works just fine with Snapseed. I prefer the Android version.
@@ljacobs357 It's not about how well the app works, it's about its ability to save your pictures, reload it and being able to make modifications and save again.
Is there a way to save photos to a cloud service or different computer and keep the Snapseed editing layers? When I save or save a copy to my iPad, I can reopen the image in Snapseed and change a previous edit. However, if I save that file from the photos app to Google Drive and then re-import it, I lose the editing layers. Is there any way to keep those edits with the file across various save locations?
This is a great question. So far as I know, there is no way to move a Snapseed file from one device to another while maintaining your editing flexibility. This is a place where the Adobe Lightroom family of products, and increasingly Adobe Photoshop, offers something that Snapseed does not. If I am wrong, by the way, and anyone out there knows of a way to move a file from device to device while maintaining its editing flexibility with Snapseed please let me know!
@@FocusPhotoSchool Thank you. That's what I suspected, but I was hoping I had overlooked something. I appreciate the response.
Oh no. I guess I have to start all over again .
spent an hour munching on the Android situation today, pretty sure it's still the same, 3 years on from your great walkthrough
somehow killing a killer app and makes it almost unusable as a editing learning tool
google's app support pages also manages to not really mention it in a manner that kept me re-reading way too long
next stop: Adobe Photoshop Express ffs inc.
My top choice these days for a top-quality mobile image editing App is Adobe Lightroom for Android or iOS
@@FocusPhotoSchool I might end up with one of those eventually.
Photoshop Express (Adobe, freemium) is quite good so far for quick RAW edits on touchscreen tablet or chromebook.
Clarity, sharpen and split tone in particular.
Like Snapseed it doesn't keep a sidecar file either so the workflow remains crippled for anything needing re-editing later on.
The solution I've found better so far is to use Darktable in a Linux container on a 8 GB RAM chromebook.
