To turn on photo sharing in Google Photos, first make sure you're signed in to your Google account. This is a crucial step, as you won't be able to access your photos or share them with others without a valid account.
Next, open the Google Photos app on your device and tap the menu icon, represented by three horizontal lines. From there, select the "Settings" option to access the app's configuration menu.
To enable photo sharing, navigate to the "Sharing" section within the Settings menu and toggle the switch to the "On" position. This will allow you to share your photos with others, either by sending them a link or by making the photos publicly visible.

Enabling Photo Sharing
Enabling photo sharing in Google Photos is a breeze. You can share your photos with a partner, and they'll receive the photos you've chosen to share as soon as they're backed up.
To start, open the Google Photos app on your Android device. Tap your account Profile picture or Initial Photos settings at the top. From there, tap Sharing and then Partner sharing.

You can choose to share photos with your partner starting from a specific date. This is a great way to share memories from a particular trip or event. Photos that were edited on your device are shared with your partner account, so you don't have to worry about missing any updates.
To share photos with someone who isn't your partner, you can create a link to share. This is especially useful if the person doesn't have a Google Account. You can also search for their email address or phone number to share directly with them.
Here are the steps to share photos with someone:
1. Open the Google Photos app on your mobile device.
2. Sign in to your Google Account.
3. Select a photo, album, or video.
4. Tap Share.
5. Under "Send in Google Photos", select people to share with.
6. To share, tap Send.
This will create an ongoing conversation thread where you and the people you have shared with can add additional photos, videos, comments, and likes over time. There is a 20,000 photo limit on conversations, so be mindful of that when sharing.
