Pixel Photo Storage

[stinger16]

This is probably very obvious but I'm going to ask anyway. When I take photos on my pixel ultimately they end up stored on Google photos. The problem is if I don't have WiFi or an data connection I can't view them. Is there a way of keeping them on the phone too? Thanks for any replies.

They'll be on the phone if you don't delete them.

Also, if you got into Settings > Storage > Manage Storage you can turn off Smart Storage. That will stop them from being deleted after the number of days that you have chosen.

They're on phone. Menu -> Device folders -> Camera.

It defaults "on" to automatically clean up old photos & videos that have already been backed up. Turn all of that off if you never want the original to leave your phone's physical storage.
