• Google has updated the Partner Sharing feature on Android.
• There is now a setting that allows the feature to automatically share photos from third-party apps with your partner.
• Google previously removed this functionality from Partner Sharing in late 2024.

Back in November last year, Google Photos released an update to its Partner Sharing feature. This update quietly stripped away the ability to automatically share photos from third-party apps from the feature. Now a new update has given users more control over what Partner Sharing sends.

As a quick refresher, Partner Sharing is a feature that allows you to automatically share your library of images with others. This includes screenshots, downloads, and photos. Originally, it would share any image, but the November update limited automatic sharing to only photos obtained from first-party apps.
