Google Photos vs. Gallery: Understanding the differences

Google offers two distinct photo management applications: Google Photos and a simpler app simply called Gallery. Google Photos provides cloud backup, extensive editing tools including AI enhancements, and integration with Google One for expanded storage. In contrast, Gallery is a more basic application that lacks cloud backup and offers only rudimentary editing features like cropping and rotation. Users can install and use both apps simultaneously, choosing the one that best suits their needs for organization and editing. AI

IMPACT Provides users with options for photo management, with Google Photos offering advanced AI editing features.
