Google is finally starting to roll out a much-needed Google Photos feature that could prevent users from accidentally deleting large numbers of photos and videos., Google ’s new “ Undo Device Backup ” feature will allow Google Photos users to delete their cloud backups without also deleting the same content from their devices.
Currently, deleting a photo or video from Google Photos also erases that image from all your devices signed into the app. This can, and often does, result in users unwittingly destroying important pictures when they try to clear up space in their Google account, unaware that their local copies will also be automatically deleted.
By selecting Undo Device Backup, users can now remove all the pictures and videos stored in Google Photos that are already backed up from their device without deleting any local copies. After running Undo Device Backup, the device will retain all its files as if the backup had never occurred.Only images currently found on your device will be removed from the cloud.
