On this app, how do I add photos from Google Photos?

The app only opens my gallery on my phone but I want to upload some images from Google photos. How do I do this?

Click and share to Google photos

Have you got the Google Photos app installed?

Yes. I have it installed. But I cannot add any images from the gallery when I try to add it just takes me to my local samsung gallery

I'm just gonna assume here. But do you mean upload to the Members App from Google Photos?

If so, then no I don't believe there is a way as when you click the + to add image it'll only open Gallery.

When you select the image on Google Photos and click share, it'll tell you what apps you can share the image to. IE contacts, WhatsApp etc.

Ahh right. Funny that because I've just had the same problem trying to add screenshots in here. The plus sign just opens the Samsung gallery and not Google photos( where they are) and sync is playing up. I had to use quick share to copy a couple of screenshots from Google photos to the Samsung gallery. It's a shame the Google Photo picker doesn't work in the Samsung members app.

Yeah, you can't.

You'll have to download the image from Google Photos to your Gallery then upload.

Interesting 🤔 I never realised you can't do that.

The things people find is amazing.

I guess since members is a Samsung app it plays nice only with the gallery.

Shame there is no option to use Google photos as a default gallery, then maybe you could have used it.
