Google will issue update for disappearing photos

[Almeuit]

For those experiencing issues it'll be fixed in an update . I am sure more will come out to fix some other hiccups as well.

good to hear

Well that is great to hear. Just got mine set up last night and will test the camera today on some cars under LED and fluorescent lights as well as some low light situations to see how it does.

Hmmm, so is this just a Pixel 3 issue or could it be a bigger issue with Google photos? I haven't taken as many pictures the last couple of days and haven't noticed anything unusual.

Pixel 3. If it was Google Photos it would be happening on every single device (such as iPhones) with Google Photos.

Hopefully they fix some memory/ram issues as well

Just received an update for the camera application, not sure if it's the fix update. i tested it took a picture and got out of the camera app right away. Photo still got saved.

Just to muddy up the watery a little, this has long been an issue with Galaxy S7E... If I don't look at the photo right away and do something with it, there's a 50% chance it will disappear from my gallery.

It's actually so annoying because I lose so many good photos

 

[TraderGary]

It will certainly be good to have the fix in place. So far I've been quite fortunate that I've not lost any photos with either my Pixel 2 XL or my Pixel 3 XL.

I do a backup to both Google Pictures and Microsoft OneDrive. I do find it interesting that my Microsoft OneDrive backup takes place much faster than the Google backup right after taking a picture.

That's a bigger issue for me too. It's annoying when you want a quick photo then the ram issue comes in play

 

[MartianReplicant]

It's so weird seeing these bugs of losing photos or Spotify stop playing which I also got with my Nexus 5X, that only has 2GB ram.

It's good it's fixable via an update... But weird seeing it on a phone like this

curious how good Google pixel phones are ,but how can photos disappear ?

The same way that a file disappears on your computer if it isn't saved before you turn off the power. Google needs to guarantee that the camera program keeps running long enough to save all image files.

Google always trys to fix there problems quick that's googd to here.

I've lost many photos...

 

[Bon Hernandez]

Any updates for this yet...?

My guess is that the photo save issue is related to the memory issue.
