Verizon Galaxy S8 Google photos

[Indecisi0n]

I use Google photos as a back up for my pictures. Only issue is I take a lot of photos and Google backs up picture immediately. So say for example if I have 5 photos of a car part and then go back in my gallery and delete the 4 I don't need Google has already backed up all 5. Is there a way to only have Google back up say maybe on a schedule? I would back up nightly while I am asleep.

I want to try and stop having to go back into Google photos and deleting the tons of pictures I don't want/need but still keeping it automatic instead of having to turn the feature on/off.

Unfortunately, I don't think you can. I've run into this problem too.

There isnt a way to do it. The only other option is not to sync when there is no wifi.

If you are using high quality as backup option, then you have unlimited storage.

The closest you can do is set it to only backup on wifi and power.

Yeah, it's a bit of an annoying issue from Google since they took away one of the sync scheduling options but that's all that's there right now.

I don't see the on WiFi and power setting for sync. That would help.
