The best thing about Google Photos is that you can easily share your photos with others, even if they do not have the app on their phone. You only need to click the Share icon, insert the recipient's phone number or email address, and click send.
You can also set the software to only sync photos when you are within WiFi range. This is a great way to save your data cap, especially if the photos and videos that you are going to upload are of high quality.
Google Photos itself allows you to store photos with resolution up to 16MP and videos which are up to 1080p. If your files exceed that resolution cap, Google will automatically compress them.
