Although Google Photos has discontinued its unlimited free plan, it still offers a gorgeous 15 GB of free storage that counts against your Google One quota.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Photos is a cross-platform product. You can access it from the Web, or using your mobile. You can search through your collection, download, share or manage your photos with ease.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can create links to your albums and share them with your friends to view or download your photos.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the best-selling features of Google Photos is Artificial Intelligence. You don\u2019t have to tag the faces of your pets, friends, and colleagues. Google Photos does it automatically for you.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to AI, you can search through photos using descriptive keywords. Search by people, things and places, and get instant &amp; accurate results.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Transferring Amazon Photos to Google Photos<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Step 1: Download your Photos<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the Amazon Photos website and head toward the Albums section.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Double-click a photo album you want to download.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Select all the photos and click on the Download icon.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your download will be prepared as an archive.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b><i>Note<\/i><\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Unfortunately, there is no direct way to download all photos from all albums at once.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Step 2: Unzip your Photos &amp; Scan them for Duplication<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lot of people start uploading photos as soon as they download and extract them. Unfortunately, this also means they gather the same set of duplicates that they accumulated over years of using their previous cloud service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By scanning and removing duplicate photos, you will free up a handsome amount of storage and make the upload process fast and smooth. Furthermore, you will spend less time finding &amp; managing your photos, and they will be available at a click away.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unzip your photo archive using a free tool such as 7-Zip File Manager. Store them in a single folder. For example C:\\Users\\&lt;Your User Name&gt;\\Downloads\\My Amazon Photos.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Download <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pictureecho.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PictureEcho<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, an incredible tool that can find fully matching and similar photos.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add the My Amazon Photos folder to your scan list, and choose a scan method.<\/span>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exact match: Select this option to find 100% matching images. You can find fewer duplicates, but the results are 100% accurate and don\u2019t require manual reviewing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar match: Select this option to find visually-matching images. There are also several criteria by which PictureEcho defines similar matching images. Some matching levels take the photo-taking timespan into account, while Level 4 doesn\u2019t takes the timespan into consideration. I suggest that you don\u2019t change these levels unless you\u2019re an advanced user.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hit on Start Search.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the scan is concluded, PictureEcho will display duplicate photo thumbnails. You\u2019ll get basic information about each duplicate such as file name, path, size, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on Select Duplicates and choose one of the automated file selection criteria. You can mark the newest, oldest, most modified, least modified, highest resolution, lowest resolution, and image location.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Click on Select Action and choose whether to move them to a folder or permanently delete them.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Other PictureEcho Features<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adobe Lightroom Scan: If you\u2019re using Adobe Lightroom, there&#8217;s good news. You can scan through and compact your huge Lightroom database by deleting unwanted duplicates.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scan by Image: This is an interesting feature. If you wish to scan for copies of a single image, Scan by Image can come to your aid. Much like the duplicate photo-finding feature, you will be able to select the Similarity Threshold and other scan settings.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image Organizer: Do you often find your photos scattered throughout your entire hard disk? Does it become difficult to find the right photos that are not neatly stored in structured folders? If so, Image Organizer is a handy feature. You can re-organize your photos by their creation\/ modification, or photo taken date. You can select a date format (year month date), and choose how to organize your photos (year\/ month\/ date), etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud Scan: Every subscription of PictureEcho links to Cloud Duplicate Finder, a web app that helps delete duplicates from OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, Amazon S3, and Box Cloud. It can also be used to delete similar photos from OneDrive and Google Drive.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean Empty Folders: Do you have a lot of empty folders?
