Note 5 - Google Photo Albums Not Appearing in Note 5 Gallery

[SkitchWonder]

Owner of a Note 3 which I just upgraded to a Note 5.

Using the Note 3, I was able to open the default picture gallery, and saw all of my picasa/google photos albums displayed along with the "Camera", "Facebook", Screenshots" folders. I am currently unable to figure out how to get that to occur on my Note 5. I can only see the local folders. None of the Google Photos Photo Albums will appear. (Again, in the default Samsung/Android Gallery App)

Any thoughts? Help would be GREATLY appreciated.

No change even after a factory reset or rolling back google photos to a prior version...

Yes that was a feature of the Note 3 and I can't remember if my Note 4 did it or not. Having access to cloud photo albums through the stock gallery app was convenient. The Note 5 doesn't have that functionality. You'll have to use the Google Photos app to see images stored there.
