Surely this is bad news for users of the Google Photos Android application. Of course, not all users have a computer or laptop.


As an alternative, Google provides a solution for disabling auto-sync by directing users to switch to the Backup application and Sync the Windows version, meaning that if the user wants to keep backing up photo and video documents it still can but must copy it by uploading it from a computer or laptop drive.
