- Did you know that Google Photos and Google Drive are separate cloud programs? And that you might need both to create a fail-safe backup system for their Master Photo Collection.
In this video I will explain:
1. The difference between Google Photos and Google Drive
2. Why Google Photos might not be the best solution.
3. How you can use Google Photos and Google Drive together.
And if you need help with your photo mess here are some resources.

Voice level/Music level is a little bit too low. It makes music a distraction to me.
Yes I know. It was one of my first videos and I didn't know better. Unfortunately RUclips doesn't let you replace it.
that's what i was just thinking...too loud and in vids like this is better not to have bckg music at all.
Why do RUclipsrs insist on barring music out when we just want to listen to the information?
I enjoyed Ms Alison speaking, but not the background music. Difficult to concentrate.
*She's probably new to content creation. Let's give her a second chance*
Same here. This is really helpful video. But I can’t hear well because of background music. 😊

TOO MUCH MUSIC IN BACKGROUND CAN'T HEAR HER
@@criticalthinker1123 Thank you for this comment. Yes totally new in this one. Appreciate your patience with me as I figure it out.
The background music was very load...... but thank your video.
Thanks a lot for the video but background music is so annoying
Hi Ms Alison thanks for a nicely done video. One problem I have in photos is it sorts the photos by the date of file which is sometimes different than the date picture was taken. Do you know of any way to sort by date taken which is in file details? Thanks
Hi there! Yes this can be really annpying. I recommend (and teach) people how to use Adobe Lightroom Classic to sort their photos chronologically. It does the best job of picking the date taken (as oppose to all the other dates attached to a digital file). But sometimes due to how our photos are saved, dates are just problematic.
@@thememorycuratorwithalliso8189 ok thanks
why do you have this backup music?
This is exactly what I do; good to know that I'm not the only one:) The only issue is that if you store your photos and videos also on Google Drive, you generally have to pay extra for the storage space, whereas Google Photos doesn't count toward your storage limit (with some exceptions).
Google Photos does count as storage now unfortunately. But yes if you use Google Drive and Google Photos you do double up. Wish they were still connected.
HI Alison. If we have our photos in Google Photos, and I delete our photos from my gallery (android phone), will affect it the good photos already stored? Also we have Google Drive but we keep getting an error message everytime we try to upload photos from our gallery onto the Google Drive.
Thank you.
Hi Dibb - No, if the photo has been uploaded from your phone to Google Photos and you delete it from your phone, it should stay there. There is a setting in the App in Google Photos that you can check - It is called FREE UP SPACE. I am not sure about what is going on with Google Drive. I just did this myself and it worked. Is it a space issue?
Thanks for this video
Most welcome
Is it possible to sync photos from phone to google drive not google photos.
Or maybe a better option is moving photos manually from google photos to drive but it is also not available.
Is there a trick to do this?
Hi Serhan - I wish you could do this but Google's automatic backup sends all photos to Google Photos and you don't have a choice. Google Drive and Google Photos used to be connected but they disconnected them a few years ago sadly. You can manually backup your photos to Google Drive or set up syncing on your computer. But to get photos from Google Photos to Google Drive you have to download them from Google Photos and then upload to Google Drive as far as I know. Totally silly if you ask me!
Is there a way i can upload all my folders from google drive to google photos?
Also if my photos are all organised in google drive , uploading on google photos will be an extra backup place ?
Hi Naila - Unfortunately Google Photos and Google Drive are separate. They used to be connected but Google ended that a few years ago. They do share the same storage under Google One though. So while it would kind of be an extra backup place, I don't think I would recommend it because you are using the same service. Plus you would be paying for double the storage on Google. It would be better to pick a different backup service if you want to have two cloud backups.
I cant hear you over the mysic
MUSIC IS A MAJOR DISTRACTION
Create chapter markers so we can jump straight to the point.
is google drive have unlimited free storage?
Hi - No it does not. All of Google is now combined so Google Drive, Google Photos and Gmail are supported by Google One which has storage plans.

Great info, just perhaps get rid of the background music it gets in the way of your voice.
Yes I know. I wish I could edit the video and reupload it to the same url.
Lovely Video Alison, and with all respect charming Alison as well , i have G-Photos and 1 Drive and Icloud (apple) is a mess , i want all in one cloud , and not pay every month for 3 different subs. if you can help me on that choice will be grateful . Thank you Aly .
Thanks for the feedback. And I can understand being frustrated with having 3 services. I would keep the Google services as you will only pay for Google One (Google storage).
You didn't explain how to use them together...
Hi - They aren't connected except that they share storage space. So you can use them separately for however you want to back up your photos.
that background music is really distracting
Thanks for letting me know.
Please get rid of the background music. It's really distracting.
I wish I could!
I can't concentrate on what you are saying. The music is too loud. I would remove completely the music. I hate when there's music and voice at the same time. But here, it is very anoying, the content seems interesting and i can't understand because of the music!
Yep I know. Unfortunately you can't edit a video and reupload it that I know of.
Wow, great info, thanks BUT *incredibly* distracting music, I had to stop listening (sorry!). Music does not help informational videos in my estimation, it just makes it harder to concentrate on what is being said. You seem to do nice, informative videos but I would gently suggest considering dropping background music entirely. I doubt it adds anything useful. (Thanks for the info in the video, though , as far as i was able to stick with it!)
Yes I know. Sorry about that. I wish RUclips let you replace videos and keep the same url.
