[help] Turn off Google Photo Backup

TexNox@feddit.uk to Android@lemmy.world – 14 points –

Hello all, so something recently changed with the Google photos app on my pixel 6 and it's automatically uploaded all my photos filled the space out and is now complaining angrily that I've used all the space.

I don't want to use Google backup, I have a OneDrive account and it backs up all my photos. The Google backup is redundant but now it's deprecated my photos app by filling it with pointless warning messages.

Thanks everyone, managed to get the backup switched off. So I'm now totally turned off the photos app so what other gallery apps do people recommend?

There's a wonderful app just called Gallery on F Droid with beautiful design.

Immich is my preferred one. You have to self-host but it's stupid easy with something like CasaOS.

Otherwise Fossify Gallery is fine.
