## Description

Google Photos: Backup & Edit Chrome extension brings your memories into one secure space. Store up to 15 GB of cloud storage, automatically back up across devices, and edit with AI-powered tools like Magic Eraser, Unblur, and Portrait Light. Quick, natural-language search helps you find moments like “Alice and me laughing” or “Kayaking on a lake,” while smart organization groups duplicates and creates intuitive folders for screenshots, documents, albums, and daily camera rolls.

Share memories with friends and family—even if they don’t use Google Photos—and keep sensitive items in a locked folder protected by your device lock. Data stays secure with Google's infrastructure, and you can import content from other apps so everything lives in one place. Print photos when available in your region and use Google Lens to search what you see for quick actions.
