Often Misunderstanded, This Is The True Archive Function In Google Photos

JAKARTA Many misunderstand the Archive feature in Google Photos. This feature is not here to delete or save storage space, but only tidy up files in the application.

The only function of this feature is to archive images. That is, this image is only removed from the main page, but not removed from the cloud or your device. This feature is also not a privacy or security tool.

Although the archive makes images not immediately clear, they can still be accessed when pum. Anyone who uses your phone can still find archived images with a few taps.

The archived images can also still be searched for using the search feature. In addition, archived images will still appear on any album the image is in. Therefore, the main function of this feature is to tidy up Google Photos.

How to Use Archives in Google Photos

There are several easy ways to archive images in Google Photos. The first way, open one image, then select the Add menu to, then tap Archive. You can also select multiple images at once, then from the menu that appears tap 'Move to the archive'.

If you are using this feature for the first time, you can add multiple images at once. In the application, open Collection, scroll down, and select Archives. Next, tap the 'Add photos to the archive' icon at the top to select all the images you want to include, then tap Done.

To cancel image filing, open or select the previously archived image. Then, tap the three-dot icon and select Cancel Archives. Later, the image will return to the main page of the application.
