Google has launched the Backup and sync app for Google Photos and Google Drive on Mac and Windows PC which will ease the process of backing up files on your computer.
What Backup and Sync essentially does is store content from your computer in Google Drive — making it easier to store photos and videos from your phone, SD card, pen drive and camera.
The new backup and sync app provides a singular medium to upload and backup your photos to Google Cloud and replaces the two older apps — Google Photos desktop and Google Drive.
