    Hi, everyone! This is Lara Hammock from the Marble Jar Channel and in today's video, I'll show you how to use Google Photos to offload your photos from your iPhone so that you can free up space and still have access to all of your photos in the cloud. And don't worry -- you won't lose your photos!
    Do you ever get an error message on your iPhone that you are running out of storage space? You might get a message that looks like this? And you know that you have a bunch of photos stored on your phone that you would be happy to offload somewhere else, but you are not quite sure how to do this? You also might have a vague recollection that you've been warned that you don't have enough iCloud space either and your phone really wants you to upgrade to larger storage?Okay -- in this video, I'm going to make the case that you should offload your photos to Google Photos, I'll tell you how the Google Photos app works vis a vis your Camera Roll, and I'll show you step by step instructions on how to do this. The bottom line is -- your photos are important. You don't want to lose them and you aren't willing to take risks with technology that you don't understand well. Can you imagine if you ended up deleting all of your photos somehow? All of that anxiety might make you want to do nothing, so then you are stuck with years worth of photos on your phone and no storage space left. Okay -- in this video, I want to make sure that you understand the process well, so that you don't have any anxiety! First off, why Google Photos?I think we are in agreement that you can't continue to keep all of your photos on your phone indefinitely, right? So, the next question is where should you keep them? If this was 10 years ago, you might say -- move them to your home computer. But it is not 10 years ago. What good are they going to do you on your home computer? You have to be home to access them. Technology has advanced, and you really want them to be up in the cloud. That way, even though they are not taking up space on your phone, you can still access them from whereever. So, you have a bunch of options for cloud storage, but the 2 most obvious are Apple's iCloud service and Google Photos. If you are a hardcore Apple user and use Apple computers as well, there might be convincing reasons to use the iCloud service. I am not. I have a PC laptop and, other than my iPad and iPhone, I tend to prefer Google services. Here are the three big reasons that I prefer Google Photos:
    * Storage space - iCloud gives you 5GB of storage for free, but considering you should be backing up your entire iPhone to iCloud, that gets used up in a hurry. I upgraded to 50GB for $1 per month, but since 30GB of that is already backups, if I wanted to store my photo in iCloud as well I would have to upgrade to the higher level, which would be $4 per month for 200GB. Google charges less for space. First of all, they give you 15GB for free. Their next tier is just $20 a year for 100GB. Considering this covers all of the Google services that I use, Gmail, Google Drive, AND Google Photos, I think it's worth it. Plus, I'm a power user and I am only using around half of that storage amount. The next thing is
    * Less Glitchy - Apple goes out of its way to make things "simple" for the user. Sometimes their services are TOO simplified for my taste. I found Apple's photo syncing to be a little glitchy and there are just not enough controls for me to determine what is going wrong and how to fix it. I don't seem to have that issue with Google Photos. And finally,
    * Searchability - this is the magic that Google brings and is by far my favorite thing about Google Photos. After all, what use are having all of your photos at your fingertips if you can't find the one you are looking for? Google Photos allows you to search by date, but also does facial recognition, so that you can search by person. In addition, it has some AI features that scan your photos and let you search your photos for occasions like Halloween or Easter and also objects, like dogs or plants. It's fabulous. Okay -- now that I've convinced you that Google Photos is the way to go, let me explain how the app works with the photos on your phone. . .

    If, after following the steps in this video, your photos are still deleting from Google Photos when you delete them from your phone, I have another video that might answer your questions: ua-cam.com/video/Tw0FOiyt9cM/v-deo.html. Hope it helps!
