    Can't find or delete photos that appear in wallpaper picker

    Good questions. I do use Google Photos and I activated it on the new phone. It didn't detect any photos on my phone, prior to my taking new photos yesterday. If I select "device folders", Google Photos doesn't see any. I do use Google Drive and I just answered a similar question in a reply just...

When I go into the wallpaper picker there is a choice to go into "my photos" and when I select that option, I see a screen that has 20 "recent" photos that were all taken on my previous phone. I haven't taken any photos yet with...
