old pictures randomly appearing on my new phone

[AC Question]

I had an S5 last yeareply and since then I've had to change phones at least 3 times. I have a Note 5 now, and old pictures I had saved previously on that S5 keep randomly appearing in this Note 5

Welcome to Android Central! It's possible that those old photos were backed up to Google Photos in the cloud, and they're syncing back to the newer phones. Go to photos.google.com on your computer browser and see if those old photos are there.
