OnePlus Now Supports Backups to Google Photos

By 26 marzo, 2024No Comments

I was really impressed with the OnePlus 12 when I tested it out earlier this year, and it looks like OnePlus is continuing to improve upon the solid foundation it has built. The latest version of OxygenOS 14, OnePlus’ Android 14 update, has added the option to integrate the OnePlus Photos app with Google Photos.

This allows photos to be more easily backed up to the cloud, though OnePlus hasn’t mentioned whether or not it will offer support for the ProXDR quality option available on higher-end OnePlus devices. OnePlus owners could already download the Google Photos app and complete a backup, but this will do it without requiring any additional apps to be downloaded. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like there is any kind of two-way sync for albums, which would be nice.

To enable the new setting on OnePlus devices, you’ll first need to update to OxygenOS 14. That operating system is available on OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11 devices, as well as on the OnePlus 10T and OnePlus 9. OxygenOS 14 is also available on some mid-range devices, like the OnePlus Nord 2T and Nord 3.

Once upgraded to the latest version, you can find the setting in the OnePlus Photos app. Open the built-in Photos app and select Settings > Backup with Google Photos, and then tap it to activate it. 9to5Google did report some issues with getting the backups working, most notably that they had to force quit the app an then reload it to make things work correctly after enabling the setting.
