Google Photos app not showing all albums is an unpleasant issue, which can be resolved with the solution of folder backup. In general, Google Photos will locate the photo folders and inquire you if you desire to back up images or skip them. If you choose to skip the image folder, Google Photos app will avoid its backup. However, it is sensible for you to apply the backup feature to avoid photo missing issue. The steps shown below will direct you to make it. <\/p>\n
1. Kick off Google Photos app on your phone and then click on the hamburger menu.
\n 2. Choose \u201cSettings\u201d tab to hit on and then click on \u201cBack up & sync\u201d. After that, you need to choose which folder you desire to back up. \n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div>\n\nThus, when the app does not show your photos, you can make use of the backup to find them. <\/p>\n
1.3 Activate Google Drive integration<\/strong><\/h3 >\n
It is sensible for you to activate Google Drive integration to deal with Google Photos app not showing all photos. You should know that all the photos uploaded to Google Photos are still saved in the folder of \u201cGoogle Drive > Google Photos\u201d. Hence, if you have backed up images to Google Drive, these pictures probably will not show in the gallery of Google Photos app. You need to set the sync feature to avoid this issue. The exact steps for you to finish this task are shown below for you to refer to. <\/p>\n
1. Fire up Google Photos app and then click on the hamburger menu.

1.4 Check the Archive and Trash Bin<\/strong><\/h3 >\n
If you fail to view all photos in Google Photos app, you can check the Archive and Trash Bin. You need to make sure you have already uploaded images to Google Photos successfully before. Apart from identifying faces and reordering images, Google Photos Assistant can recommend archiving images.<\/p>\n
If the photos are in the Archive, they will be quite safe and there is no need for you to worry about losing them at all. If you removed them by accident, you still can restore them during 60 days. If the time is over 60 days, the photos will disappear for good. \n<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n\nYou only need to run Google Photos app and then click on the hamburger menu to access the Archive and Trash Bin. <\/p>\n
1.5 Move photo folders to internal memory<\/strong><\/h3 >\n
