How to create shared libraries in Google Photos
Creating shared libraries in Google Photos allows you to collaborate with a specific person on a photo collection, adding pictures, videos, and comments together. For those unaware, a shared library in Google Photos is a collaborative space where you can share photos and videos with a specific person. It's like a mini photo album that both of you can contribute to, edit, and comment on.Here's how to set it up:On your mobile device:
  1. Open the Google Photos app.
  2. Tap the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner.
  3. Select "Share your library."
  4. Tap "Get Started."
  5. Choose the person you want to share with from your contacts list.
  6. Decide what photos to share:
    • All photos: Share everything from your library from the beginning.
    • Photos of specific people: Select specific face groups to share photos containing those individuals.
    • Photos from a specific date: Choose a date range to share photos within that period.
  7. Tap "Done" to create the shared library.
On your computer:
  1. Go to the Google Photos website (photos.google.com).
  2. Sign in to your Google account.
  3. Click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select "Settings."
  4. Scroll down to "Partner sharing" and click on "Get Started."
  5. Choose the person you want to share with from your contacts list.
  6. Follow the same steps as on mobile to decide what photos to share (All photos, Photos of specific people, Photos from a specific date).
  7. Click "Save" to create the shared library.
