Google PhotoScan Upload Tutorial Video (Upload Real Photos To Your Phone)

How To Scan Real Life Photos into your Phone Step by Step (Guide)

If you have any real life photos laying around the house this helpful phone app should allow you to upload a real photo directly to your phone by scanning them digitally.

  1. The first thing you’re going to want to do is open up your App store and do a quick search for an app called Photo Scan by Google. Type in “Photo Scan Google” then select and download the app. It should say Photo Scan by Google Photos and it should have a blue icon. Go a ahead and download it. 
  2. Once dowloaded go ahead and open the app. You should be greeted by a tutorial video. But I have a few tips for the best results. 
  3. After the tutorial video you should be greeted by a few prompts. In the first prompt you should be asked to access your camera. Go ahead and select allow because you need the camera to take a picture of the photos. The next prompt should ask you whether you’d like to allow access to your photos. 
  4. Click allow full access because this is how Photo Scan saves your photos. 
  5. Now for the tips. It’s important you lay the photo on a flat surface. There shouldn’t be a glare or any streaks of light hitting the photos either. But the photo should be well lit. With a lot of light hitting the photo. But again there should be no glares or streaks of light hitting the photo.
  6. Once you are ready hit the circle in the middle of the screen. Start on any circle. And follow the arrows to take a complete picture of the photo. Be sure not to move or tilt the camera a lot and use a smooth motion when following the arrow to the next circle. 
  7. Once you are done you can either keep the photo or delete it and try again. Don’t worry if the photo needs to be rotated because I can fix it on my computer. Just make sure to provide me with the best photos possible. Once you are done they should be saved to your photo gallery.
  8. Follow steps 5-8 until you are done scanning all of your photos.
