Keep your favorite moments in one place
Even with a gallery overflowing with photos, only a small handful usually feel truly special. Favoriting them means you can pull up just those meaningful shots again in seconds.
Favorites sync across your devices
On both platforms, favoriting a photo while signed into your cloud account (iCloud or your Google account) typically syncs that status across every device signed into the same account, so a photo you favorite on your phone shows up favorited on your tablet or computer too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to delete a photo I've favorited?
Favoriting is not a delete-protection feature, so it is worth backing up anything you truly want to keep separately in case it is accidentally deleted.
Can I share my favorites album with someone else?
Yes β you can select the photos inside your favorites album and share them with anyone, exactly as you would with any other photos.
