Google photos in samsung galary

[ANR1]

Hi is there any way Google photos can be shown in samsung gallery to be used while changing wallpapers etc. right now one has to go in Google photos and use useas feature for the same. 

Also Google photos is many times not available in some contextual uploads where media is needed to be selected.

I don't think so unless you download them back.

In fact I think it's better that way there are separate.

Only thing I can think of is you backup and restore in smarthings app.

I think samsung should appreciate that a customer shifted from a pixel to samsung. It takes some time to transition and should allow some familiar systems. I feel it's an unnecessary lockin into a alien ecosystem for basic things like photos etc. I say the same for iOS, pixel, samsung. Samsung if you notice has partnered with onedrive of Microsoft and that is the reason they are not allowing Google photos integration. But nevertheless it's not a handicap other than minor annoyance

Totally. Agree. I prefer Google photos to one drive and have always advocated for them to give us option.

I do use both Samsung gallery and Google photos as both have their pros and cons.

Besides the annoyance as you mention.
