The Google Photos app for Android now includes a manual photo stacking feature that lets users group several, a feature that was previously available only in the iOS version of the app. ^[1] Manual photo stacking was present on the Pixel 11 Pro running Google Photos version 7.90.0.973970263 and on the Pixel 11 Pro Photo pro XL with version 7.91.0.973540846, as described by writer Joe Emmar, who used those devices. ^[2] The manual stacking feature in Google Photos was added to the iOS app in May 2025, according to the article, making it exclusivity to iOS for more than a year until now. ^[3] To create a manual photo stack in Google Photos Android, the user presses and holds on the pictures they want to group, swipes left on the bottom app bar, then taps 'Stack photos', as described in the article. ^[4] Google Photos has a two-year inactivity policy, and the company says it notifies users at least three months before a possible deletion. ^[5] Google states that a personal account inactive for at least two years may be deleted along with its data. ^[6] The article argues that photos stored only on a phone or cloud service are not guaranteed to last forever, and that the storage location determines whether changing, losing, or damaging the phone also means losing the image. ^[7] Google offers an Inactive Account Manager that lets users select up to ten contacts to receive specific data after a period of inactivity. ^[8]
