Uploading photos automatically

[Eeclaire]

My old phone used to automatically save photos to Facebook. I think this has been discontinued, but can I set up my phone to automatically save photos so I can access them on other devices without uploading each one and then downloading them to the other device?

Hi @Eeclaire, welcome to the community.

You can use the Google Photos application. This will automatically back up your photos to a Google account, and you will be able to access them from any device with a browser by going to photos.google.com

Ah, thank you. I thought there had to be a simple solution.

I found the photos in my phone but not on the computer. Realised I didn't have Sync turned on!

Yes, you can adjust the sync settings in the Photos app. I recommend you put it on to WiFi only, unless you have an unlimited data plan.
