I’m not Gunn lie... you did a great job explaining clear and to the point. God knows people loose their minds explaining it trying to understand the best back up methods lol. Thanks this is useful.
The last 30 seconds helped me free up 50 GB on my phone! Never knew about this button. Thank you so much from saving me from having to go through every video to decide whether to delete it.
This helped A LOT! Thank you for both videos....sitting here with almost 20k photos....the backup may take awhile....lol! You made it very easy to understand and to follow along.
I think this video answers a different problem/question. If you use the google photos free up space it will not remove these from the cloud. If you use another app to go to the file storage and delete photos then you would EXPECT these to be deleted from the cloud as well. UPDATE: Seems they don't get deleted any more after all.
I stand corrected!!!! If I had watched this video first before the free up space video I would have known what those signs meant at bottom of pic. I thought it meant that it was uploaded. So that’s why the pic disappeared from both places because it wasn’t done uploading lol geez
Thanks for the video. How to organize pictures in Google Photos that won't take me days or weeks to do, please? Or is there a way to organize photos on my iphone BEFORE I upload them to Google Photos? Thank you!
Hi, there! I wouldn’t organize on your phone prior to uploading to Google Photos since it won’t preserve your organization. I organize my photos by quarter (eg 2023 Q4). That helps me navigate more easily and it’s also a structure I use to backup my photos. I hope that helps!
I am a first time google photos user. I am gone almost insane after deleting the originals videos of my holiday after having thought google photos must have backed up all the photos and videos. But it actually didn’t. 😢 Fortunately iphone still stores deleted photos/videos for 30 days so I didn’t loose them. From now on, I will use the tool of ‘free up space’ and stay calm!
Hi thank you for this video! I just have a question...maybe I am missing the point but just want full clarity... All my photos were previously stored on google photos...I then hard reset my phone. After that all my 3000 photos (already backedup) were back on my phone again which I understand it happened via the sync. But, if I delete all the photos on my phone....will it delete on the cloud as well? ☺️your help will mean alot xx
Hi, Jacqueline. I hope I'm understanding your question, but if you say that all 3,000 photos are again in your Camera Roll then you can delete them without affecting Google Photos. Hope that helps!
Hello my question is when i want to erase a picture shouls i erase them from photos or google photos? My phone sometimes doesn’t erase in any of them, i know it’s pretty full bec. i need to take a lot of pictures for work, pl can you explain it what’s the right way to do this? Thank you Nice video!
@@marblejarchannel So say I do free up space like you did in this video. After I take new pics and want them added to my already existing Google photos library, will sync right over my old library with my new existing one of 10 photos?
I'm so grateful to have found your videos! I have an iphone. In Google photos, I confirmed that backup is complete. Then I went to google photos 'apps & devices' >> 'free up space' (94% used on my phone) and it said I had thousands to delete from device. I clicked to delete them, but they are still on my phone and my google photos app still says 94% used on device. But when I repeat the process and click on "free up space", google photo says "nothing to free up". Please help:)
This may be because they are still in the delete folder. They stay there for 30 days unless you manually go in and delete them. Could that be the problem?
Thank you for the reply@@marblejarchannel ! So they aren't in the trash folder on my Google photo app, but in my iPhoto app it says I have almost 12,000 photos and 328 videos in recently deleted.
@@dlai5702 yes wait for the pic to upload before deleting. I made the same mistake. If you go in google photos and tap a pic and then tap the 3 dots at top right it should say “delete from device” and then you know this pic is downloaded and safe to delete from your phone.
You’re awesome! Thank you so much for your help! How can l open all the pictures from Photos to library in Google Photos, so l’ll be able to print them out?
Thank you so much for this. I’m new at Google photos. So when Google photos goes in and deletes photos where do they go? I’m so scared of losing my pictures. Are they going to the cloud? If so, how do I get there to see my pictures that Google Photos is sending somewhere? On my Google Photos, I have all the hundreds of photos that I have taken in the past couple years and I have them also in the library under different folders. So I have been thinking that all of my photos that I have taken are right there in front of my face to look at. Sometimes I get a warning on my Google Photos at the bottom of the picture and it says this picture will be deleted in 60 days. So I feel like I have been losing pictures. I need help please
Even after doing all these my photos get deleted from Google photos I've checked so many times the uploading is also finished but still it gets deleted from Google photos if i delete it from my gallery
hi! im trying to transfer all my photos to the google photos because im gonna reset my phone. what if i delete my google photos app, is it my pictures will be still there if i download the google photos again after i reset my phone? thanks for your answer! 😊
As long as you wait until all of your photos are uploaded to Google Photos, then they are safely in the cloud. Then you can delete the app or reset your phone and your photos will still be there when you reinstall!
When I factory reset my chromebook and wipe out all the data, will it completely delete all my google photos? If so, will my other devices still have the photos saved in the google photo app or will the photos be deleted in my other devices like my phone which has same account as my chromebook?
Everything should be preserved up in the cloud, so you shouldn’t lose any of your photos. UNLESS they are not fully backed up. I would log onto your account online from another computer to make sure the photos have all been synced!
can never get to the point on my samsung galaxy s5 android phone when the remaining items are finally indeed backed up as indicated without a circle but with a check mark in the cloud icon that they are backed up? when I click on the icon initial on my name account, sometimes it says back up complete but then it instantly says preparing to back up and 69 items remain and they never get backed up after weeks? I added back up and sync from google on my windows 7 computer which backed up , according to seeing these photos that were on numerous files on my computer , I then saw in my google photos account on my computer and also on my phone but since they say either uploaded from back up and sync or from phone, I do not really know if they are backed up on both phone and computer since the phone keeps saying 69 items remain to back up???
Then I have question if it delete my photos from my iPhone gallery will it also be deleted from the Google photos cause me and my family were going on trip I need more space
Does anyone know how to delete photos in Google Photos without it deleting photos on your device. I have turned off back up and syncing but it still deletes them. Thanks!
I can never finally back up the remaining photos on google photos since it always says at first back up complete then says preparing to back up and 69 items remain but it never finishes so I can never free up space on phone since it says items not backed up,and it says cannot delete or free up space in that not enough items are backed up but there are thousands of items indeed backed up since only 69 in one folder and 9 in the camera folder are not backed up as far as what the phone indicates???? I went to syn and back up on my computer, the pics in my comuter that now appear also synced to the phone so was wondering if I could free up space on computer and phone since computer indicates these photos are backed up? Alos if the 9 or 69 items are still pending back up on phone, how can I tell which photos are not able to be backed up since the icons appear like double circles or ! or no check in cloud on more than 9 or 69 photos???
I created albums in my G photos app, upload specific pictures to each. There wasn’t any special indicators around my profile picture or on the pictures themselves. I check numerous times, hours apart, to make sure they were in those folders. Deleted from my phone. The next day, they were all gone! Ideas? Can I retrieve them once a I have deleted from my phone?
Hi, Andrea -- oh, dear, I hope you can! You can check your deleted photos album and see if they are still there or if you've deleted them entirely off your phone. If they are still in deleted photos, you should be able to recover them!
the manage device storage button - I click - it supposedly deletes a bunch ( I'm one of those that started with 1000's.... But there are still thousands of pictures on my phone. When I open my apple "photos" app - even the most recent pictures are still there - even though I see them in the google photos app, AND I've supposedly deleted everything that's backed up? Are there multiple copies?
Are you absolutely certain they have been uploaded to the cloud? If so, you may have duplicates. You can see what happens when you delete one from your phone. Does it affect anything in Google Photos?
As long as you can be sure that they are uploaded (you can login to your Google Photos account on the website to make sure). Then yes, you can delete them!
Omg, I’m so happy right now! I’ve been trying to free up space on my iPhone for months. I watched tons of videos and none of them worked, but this one did. Thank you so much, you’re a life saver! 😁❤️
anyone know how to stop the circle of death on Samsung Galaxy 5 android phone when trying to syn and back up photos on google photos in that it keeps preparing to back up and says 9 or 69 items remain but can never finally syn and back up these remaining ones?Have also added back up and sync from google photos on my windows 7 computer. It is constantly syncing photos and I have not cancelled or quit on my computer, I simply turn the computer off but when I go back on the computer it starts syncing photos since it remains on. Once these photos are synced from computer from the program back up and syn from google on the computer, are they also backed up on my Samsung Galaxy phone and can be therefore deleted from phone?
Hi, Kitty -- I don't feel like I can help since I don't have an Android, but hopefully you'll get a response from someone else in the comments who can!
After the backup is complete, if I delete photos from my android device it's getting deleted from the Google photos as well. Please help with the solution...
Guys if you are scared because you delete them off your iPhone but when you look at storage it still says you have all of them all you have to do is go to your photos go to albums and go down to recently deleted. Then just delete all of the photos and they stay in google photos
Oh and if you look at you storage after that and it still hasn’t change you just have to wait like 10-15 minutes depending on how many photos you had but you can watch as it slowly goes down like I did
I've got the opposite problem, when I take a photo and delete it from iPhone photos gallery it stays on google photos. How do I make it so it also deletes on google photos so they are completely synced?
What about how do I delete photos from google photos but not my phone? Because when I try to delete from google photos, it asks me if I want to allow the app to delete it from my phone.. but I just want to delete it from google photos
Marble Jar Channel the only options are “don’t allow” and “delete” - “don’t allow” doesn’t delete from either google photos app or my camera roll and “delete” deletes it from both the app and my camera roll..:( won’t let me choose..
Only one should be accessing your gallery at a time. For the other, the photos will appear in the Google Photos app, but they will have an icon that looks like a cloud with a slash through it to indicate that they are not being backed up to that Google Photos account. Hope that helps!
How do I unlink my iCloud account from my google photos. Basically I want my photos just on my iCloud and not on google photos. Whenever I try to delete photos on my google photos it also is deleted from my iCloud.
I have Google photos sync and back up OFF. Yet still when I delete photos from my apple phone it deletes it from the Google photos. Now I have the same pictures in both Apple and Google cloud. How do I unlink them??? Only thing I found so far is deleting the Google photos app and never signing into it again from my iphone. That is NOT the solution I want. I would like to have my google photos app there so I can look at it whenever I want.
Hello, It seems that I can't open my back up video/photos in Google Photo when I don't have an Internet connection. Do you have a solution for that? It would be great, thanks.
The key is that you need to sync first all of it by clicking the top right hand circle to start the process. Then once they are saved, which can take a while, then the deletion works without removing them from iPhone.
Beginner here, Um when I take pictures it sends pictures to my photos and it also sends it to google photos, and the problem is that I want it to send it to google photos not to photos is there a fix?
This is the way it works. When you take photos, they are sent to Photos, but once they upload to Google Photos, you can delete everything from your camera roll. Hope that helps!
Will I lose all of my photos if I delete and reinstall the Google Photos app on my iPhone? Ever since the latest update I’ve been having problems whenever I open the app the entire app freezes and I can’t scroll or click on anything. I wait for the Google photos app to load, but it later on crashes.
@@marblejarchannel The other problem is that I used free up space for all of my photos and videos. All of my photos and videos that are already safely backed up to the cloud are removed from local storage. My Google Photos had deleted the originals. If I delete and reinstall the Google Photos app will all of my photos and videos be lost because of freeing up space? I can’t even backup anything cause the app itself doesn’t work.
If you used “free up space” all of your photos should be safely up in the cloud. You can go to a browser and login to Google Photos to see if they are all there. But deleting and reinstalling the app won’t affect your photos at all!
If that's the case of what you're saying then why does Google say that you delete it from your phone gallery they'll take it out of anywhere you've shared it anywhere you put it on other devices any link with other devices and they'll remove it from the cloud now that's their words not mine still that's why I'm confused.
@@marblejarchannel heres my problem. Almost all my photos are my on digital art that is sometimes a stacked num ber of to create a final image .Same with sime of my video " movies " where ive had videos virtually destroyed because images were removed by google once i removed some from ... that being the case if i had sold a screen aaver or dig art piece to someone and this happened it would not be good . I really don't know if this can happen but I know the movies were ruined and "could not play' with whatever and I just don't know I just don't understand what's going on here cuz I don't know what which is the original and I'm a creative artist and not a very good organizer so I've got to find a way to make it easier for me so I don't have a problem and I don't know I'm looking now but I don't know what the answer is and whether it's true or not when I heard somebody say the other day that they removed a picture from their Google library and it disappeared from their Amazon library that just blew a hole in my plan for a way of making things secure like I said I don't know if it's true or not but I'm about to give up and well just give up. Naturally sucks to say that
Actually, I'm scared to death about doing the OPPOSITE! I have too many photos/videos on google drive, and I may have deleted these photos/videos from my phone, thereby making the copy on google drive the ONLY copy of these photos/videos. NOW, google sayz I"m out of space (by a ton) and I need to get these photos OFF google drive and BACK onto my computer (and eventually external drive). Can you help?
Hi, Frank. Not sure if you mean Google Drive or Google Photos, but I have a video on how to backup to a computer from Google Photos. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/8j4xi3d4rhE/v-deo.html. Hope that helps!
My problem is, how did awll my google photos download to my iPhone album?? Over 4000 photos and videos are now taking over my iPhone … and it says the upload is still pending …. But this was not the case before two days ago I can’t even download a mms smh
Just make sure photos have uploaded to Google Photos. Then when you delete from the photos app on your iPhone, they will stay in Google Photos. Good luck.

How do I unlink my iCloud account from my google photos. Basically I want my photos just on my iCloud and not on google photos. Whenever I try to delete photos on my google photos it also is deleted from my iCloud.
Did you solved this problem?
Perfect. THANK YOU.
If deleted photos from google photo app then all pics will be deleted from gallery app too??
Yes, that's true. Deleting photos from Google Photos also takes them off of your phone.
BackUp your photos then it wont get deleted
Thank you!!!
I have Google photos sync and back up OFF. Yet still when I delete photos from my apple phone it deletes it from the Google photos. Now I have the same pictures in both Apple and Google cloud. How do I unlink them??? Only thing I found so far is deleting the Google photos app and never signing into it again from my iphone. That is NOT the solution I want. I would like to have my google photos app there so I can look at it whenever I want.
I don't know that I can help with this. If you have back up off, it shouldn't be copying to Google Photos!
Hello, It seems that I can't open my back up video/photos in Google Photo when I don't have an Internet connection. Do you have a solution for that? It would be great, thanks.
You'll need an Internet connection when backing up Google Photos since they are stored in the cloud.
Marble Jar Channel I have an Internet connection but when I don’t, I can’t see it ( the backed up videos)
It doesn’t work. They get deleted from my cloud when I delete them from the phone.
513 CoFFEE did u solve that?
The key is that you need to sync first all of it by clicking the top right hand circle to start the process. Then once they are saved, which can take a while, then the deletion works without removing them from iPhone.
513 CoFFEE thanks🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Beginner here, Um when I take pictures it sends pictures to my photos and it also sends it to google photos, and the problem is that I want it to send it to google photos not to photos
is there a fix?
This is the way it works. When you take photos, they are sent to Photos, but once they upload to Google Photos, you can delete everything from your camera roll. Hope that helps!
Will I lose all of my photos if I delete and reinstall the Google Photos app on my iPhone? Ever since the latest update I’ve been having problems whenever I open the app the entire app freezes and I can’t scroll or click on anything. I wait for the Google photos app to load, but it later on crashes.
No, you won’t lose any photos if you delete and reinstall the app. The photos are stored up in the cloud. Hope it fixes your problem!
@@marblejarchannel The other problem is that I used free up space for all of my photos and videos. All of my photos and videos that are already safely backed up to the cloud are removed from local storage. My Google Photos had deleted the originals. If I delete and reinstall the Google Photos app will all of my photos and videos be lost because of freeing up space? I can’t even backup anything cause the app itself doesn’t work.
If you used “free up space” all of your photos should be safely up in the cloud. You can go to a browser and login to Google Photos to see if they are all there. But deleting and reinstalling the app won’t affect your photos at all!
@@marblejarchannel Thank you so much for the important information. 😊
How I recover it ? I deleted all my photos from Google photos
Thank you so much 🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Is this applicable for ANDROID??
Omg thanks you just saved my life XD
Thanks bro
If that's the case of what you're saying then why does Google say that you delete it from your phone gallery they'll take it out of anywhere you've shared it anywhere you put it on other devices any link with other devices and they'll remove it from the cloud now that's their words not mine still that's why I'm confused.
Yes, you'll need to share directly from Google Photos rather than from your Camera Roll.
@@marblejarchannel heres my problem. Almost all my photos are my on digital art that is sometimes a stacked num ber of to create a final image .Same with sime of my video " movies " where ive had videos virtually destroyed because images were removed by google once i removed some from ... that being the case if i had sold a screen aaver or dig art piece to someone and this happened it would not be good . I really don't know if this can happen but I know the movies were ruined and "could not play' with whatever and I just don't know I just don't understand what's going on here cuz I don't know what which is the original and I'm a creative artist and not a very good organizer so I've got to find a way to make it easier for me so I don't have a problem and I don't know I'm looking now but I don't know what the answer is and whether it's true or not when I heard somebody say the other day that they removed a picture from their Google library and it disappeared from their Amazon library that just blew a hole in my plan for a way of making things secure like I said I don't know if it's true or not but I'm about to give up and well just give up. Naturally sucks to say that
so useful, thankyou

Actually, I'm scared to death about doing the OPPOSITE! I have too many photos/videos on google drive, and I may have deleted these photos/videos from my phone, thereby making the copy on google drive the ONLY copy of these photos/videos. NOW, google sayz I"m out of space (by a ton) and I need to get these photos OFF google drive and BACK onto my computer (and eventually external drive). Can you help?
Hi, Frank. Not sure if you mean Google Drive or Google Photos, but I have a video on how to backup to a computer from Google Photos. Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/8j4xi3d4rhE/v-deo.html. Hope that helps!
Thanks

Please I didn’t understand.How do I delete photos from photo app but keep in google photos?
Just make sure photos have uploaded to Google Photos. Then when you delete from the photos app on your iPhone, they will stay in Google Photos. Good luck.
@@marblejarchannel is it only for iphone or andriod too?
Thank you so much ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
How do you delete photos from Google photos but keep them saved on the device?
There is not a good way to do this unfortunately.
Thank you! Directions are clear, precise, and so helpful. Great job and great tutorial!
So helpful
What if that's what I want? What if I want google photos to delete photos I deleted on my device?
Unfortunately, that’s not the way Google Photos works. It’s best to work from the Google Photos app and delete from there!
Can anyone pls simply tell. When delete photos videos from gallery. But i wanna save in google photos! Guys pls simply answer how??😓
Ok now how do I delete all of my photos from google photos without google deleting it from my actual phone?
You can’t do this from the Google app, so I would sign into the Google Photos website (web app) and do it from there.
But i deleted them from the trash too
This happens in my android as well
