In Shared Libraries, the photos are shared with the secondary account and any changes made in the primary account will reflect in the secondary account including deletion of photos. Transfer Google Photos To another account using Shared Libraries In this post, I’ll get you through the complete process to transfer Google Photos data to another Google account using the Shared Libraries feature. Although this feature is created to sync your Google Photos account with your significant other, but it can also be used to migrate data between your own accounts.
And downloading all the data and uploading it to the secondary account is just too much of a hassle.Īfter some experiments, I found a trick to use the new Shared Libraries feature of Google Photos to transfer Google Photos data to another account. To my surprise, there is no built-in option to move Google Photos to another account, unlike Gmail emails. Recently, I wanted to backup all my Google Photos data to another Google account as an extra security measure.
