My photo needs
This is what I want to do.... it is probably what most people want to do. I am trying to figure out how to manage the photos that I take.
First I have a Note4. I use the Photo app and the Gallery app. I have the Google Photos app. And for years I've been using Picasa on my PC.
and I also have Dropbox. I used to have Dropbox set up to copy all photos that I took go into Dropbox so that they would end up on my PC in a Camera Uploads folder. Recently I've turned that automatic thing off.
I think both Dropbox (when set up to do so) and Google Photos copy the photo from the Gallery to the cloud to be sync'd to the PC. I have set it up to only do this when connected via Wifi.
I want to take a picture. It initially gets stored on my phone and then on my PC via sync'd storage in the cloud.
If I don't like the photo I want to delete it. If choose to delete it I want it deleted from every place that it is being stored. If I am reviewing photos in the phone's Gallery and choose to delete in the Gallery and don't want to see it again anywhere. Same requirement for the Google Photos. If I am looking at a photo in Photos and delete it there I want it deleted from the Gallery too. And if I delete from my PC I also want it to be deleted from my Gallery and Photos on my Note4. I can't figure out how to do that. It seems that deleting a photo from one place doesn't necessarily delete from the other places.
What is the correct strategy for effectively deleting photos?
