I thought this would be easy!!
I took a picture today on top of a hill using the Cardboard App. I now want to add it to Google Maps. However, it's impossible!! There is no option to add a photo when I click on the location of the photo in Maps.
Can anyone help? Surely adding a photo taken using Google Cardboard, should be easy to add to Google Maps!!
TIA.

How to Share VR Photos on Google Maps
Thanks. However this is for creating new images not using the cardboard photo app. The cardboard photo app includes sounds and I think attempts at making things 3d. I've tried uploading them using the Street View app and it fails each time.

I noticed in the Gallery app on my N10 there is a Dropbox section. Are those pictures stored on Google Drive somewhere? I can't seem to find them outside of what is actually on the N10.
Where is the dropbox exactly? I don't see it in my Gallery. Maybe take a screenshot?

I think I figured it out. It appears to be something like a Google Photos thing. I'm not so sure it is Picassa. Once I chose "Photos" from Google it did display a Dropbox. What I put in there shows up on the tablet. Now the only thing I don't understand is using this along with the Daydream option in settings. It states that it will display the photos when charging, but when I charge nothing happens.
My gallery displays a dropbox section for sharing, but only because I have dropbox installed.
Sounds like you have Instant upload turned on for Google+
Hey guys I've been developing an app but I'm having this issue while I upload a photo through my app to my server. I click the select photo option on my app and it redirects me to the Google photos app's recent page and when I select a photo from there, it doesn't upload it. I know that I can click on the menu and select from the default android gallery. Note that selecting a photo from Google plus backup through the default gallery has the same issue.
I'd like to know if somehow I can directly select photos from the gallery app or fix the issue of selecting photos from the Google photos app.

you should learn more about how to read and interpret exceptions, cause it will be throwing one in your code. If I were a betting man, I would say you are attempting to upload a resource uri location rather than a file. So you would need to get the absolute location and name from the relevant content provider
I hate the Facebook app and it is battery draining even though I only use the app for saving pics and uploading them. Otherwise I just use Samsung Internet and browse the Facebook mobile site. What are the other Facebook apps called that you all use and where do I download them and are they more battery friendly? Thanks in advance!
Use facebook lite.
Where do I find it? Its not in Google Play Store

I use the Sammy browser for facebook but a good one is called METAL - in play store
It does facebook and twitter
Tinfoil for Facebook
Unfortunately I can't download it because I'm in the USA.
Unfortunately I can't download Facebook Lite because I'm in the USA. Metal won't do a batch upload for pictures, I have to go and select the picture s one by one and that is time consuming and probably battery consuming where as the Facebook app I can select the 30 pictures I want from my stock gallery to upload and it uploads them. Metal also won't let me select which album I want the pictures to upload to. :/

Download it from apkmirror or somewhere on Google rather than the play store and it will work fine for you

and today its on sale too

You can also try "Swipe for Facebook". It is almost identical in functions to the FB app, and it includes the messenger app (so you don't need to download it separately).

Anyone could make it work Google Photos? I installed apk and it does not download pictures... or any recommended app to access Google Photos?
Thanks

Hello all while I'm still waiting on my White NP1 device just wanted some recommendations for a Free/Paid gallery app.
I know this device uses Google Photos and I'm definitely not happy with them. (truth be known I only use Gmail, Google maps and Translate from the Google range of apps)
Normally I'm used to the gallery apps in Samsung, Honor or Huawei devices.
I don't what something the heavy on package size or system resources.
So any feedback is more than welcome thank you.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplemobiletools.gallery&hl=it&gl=US try this
I use Simple gallery pro, very happy with it. But you can't directly open your (other) gallery from the nothing camera app. That only seems to work with Google photo's. That's rely annoying (close the camera app, start the gallery app to share a picture...}
Currently there seems to be now ay the photos in the camera app get routed to whaterver gallery app exists.
So i had to re-enable gPhotos after disabling them. But there are many avilables ones, you can try SimpleGalleryPro, open fDroid, or just the internet to find one of your choice.
I use quickpic mod by WST
QuickPic
Thanks to all for you input I already use some of the Simple apps and their gallery app did not get much positive feedback from my findings.
That's a bummber about the Gphoto app as I was going to disable or uninstall it hate use Gphoto.
