9to5Google • • general
Key Points:
- Samsung Gallery is rolling out updates to replace its discontinued OneDrive integration with direct Google Photos support for cloud backup and syncing.
- The new "Gallery Cloud Sync" app enables users to back up photos and videos securely to Google Cloud, with seamless multi-device synchronization and album selection features.
- This integration is not fully live yet and requires updates to both the Gallery Cloud Sync app and Samsung Cloud, possibly alongside a Gallery app or system update.
- Existing OneDrive sync support will continue until September 30, giving users time to transition to the new Google Photos integration.
- Similar Google Photos integration has been available on other brands like OnePlus and Xiaomi, but Samsung is just now adopting this functionality.
