1. Pick photos
Google opens its own photo chooser. Only the photos you select reach this page, and nothing is uploaded, saved or sent anywhere except to and from Google. Closing or refreshing this tab erases it all.
Before you start: nothing here is saved online. If you refresh or close this tab, your choices are lost. Use Save my gallery file as you go. It saves to your own device and you can reopen it with "Open a saved file" below.
Open a saved file:
- It asks Google for read-only access to only the photos you choose in Google's own chooser. It cannot see the rest of your library, and it cannot change or delete anything.
- Your chosen photos are loaded into this browser tab to sort them by year and show them. This page has no server of its own that receives them, and it sends them nowhere except to and from Google.
- The page checks sharpness, size and repeats on your own device. It does not use any AI service today. If that ever changes, this page will say so before it happens.
- Nothing is saved online. If you tap "Save my gallery file", the photos you approved go into one file on your own device.
- You can remove this page's access any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
