Re: SD card photos
Yes, you should be able to do that. Remember to unmount the card before you remove it. The Unmount option is in Settings>Storage. Then you'll need a full-size SD card adapter, since I would guess that those kiosk machines don't take microSD cards. Once you insert the card into the kiosk, it should prompt you to select the folder with the pictures--look for the DCIM/Camera folder.

Can anyone tell me which photographs are stored on the Samsung smartphone s5. I have two sets of pictures. One set on the Gallery.And the other in Photos. Which ones are stored on the Cloud, if any.

New Google photo app.
I've been fooling with the new Google photo app since it was released a few days ago. I have just one question. How can I find out what photos are stored directly on my smartphone as compared to what stored in the cloud. Anyone have that answer? Thanks

Google gallery vs new Google Photos
Can anyone tell me how photographs are stored on the Samsung smartphone s5. I have two sets of pictures. One set in the Gallery, the duplicate others in the new Google Photos. Which ones are stored on the Cloud, or on the device? Thanks.

Re: Google gallery vs new Google Photos
Photos that are saved locally are on Internal Storage, usually in the /storage/sdcard0/DCIM/Camera directory. The system's Media Scanner periodically scans the entire storage area for media files (photos, videos, music) and adds those files to the gallery or music databases so that they show up in whatever Gallery app or Music app that you use. So the files aren't actually stored in those apps--the apps just know where to look to access the files.
The stock Gallery and the Google+ Photos apps usually can access the same photos, whether they're saved locally or in your Google+ Photos cloud. However, on some phones, the stock Gallery can only show locally saved photos.
In the Photos app, you can specify to view only locally saved photos by swiping in from the left and tapping Device Folders.

Re: Backup of photos
Yes, you can close Google+ but make sure you get your photos out of it first.

Re: Search Google photos
I see that circle and I clicked on it but it takes me to the search bar where I should enter the search item. When I do that there is no bar to search or enter as the instructions called for. There used to be a spy glass for the search item but its not in my keyboard. Please help

Re: Search function on new Google photo
Are the pictures old and low resolution? Are you trying to do a face search?

Re: Instructions in help in Google Photos do not work for finding photos.
Did you download the new standalone Photos app from the Play Store?

Re: Adding captions to photos.
I think you need to install some caption-adding app from Google Play Store. One app that I personally use is Phonto(free app).
