Google Photos is a photo sharing and storage service developed by Google. It was announced at the Google I/O conference on May 28, 2015. It allows users to store, share, and edit photos and videos. The service also provides a suite of tools for developers to build photo-sharing applications.
The Google Photos API provides a set of tools that developers can use to build applications that enable users to share and edit photos and videos. The API lets developers create, view, and edit albums, photos, and videos; upload and download photos and videos; and search for photos and videos.
Albums, photos, and videos can be shared with other users, and users can add comments to photos and videos. The API also provides a set of tools for developers to build photo-sharing applications.
