Hi, I assume you would have used a gmail account to set the phone up, just setup the phone to sync photos to your gmails photo app and they just appear, no input required.

Edit: otherwise if you just open the file manager and go to images the photos should be there by default

Dang no clue then, running the latest mi12?

You should be able to set default photo storage in camera settings? Or share it directly from the gallery?

Just re checking my Redmi10 Note, "Internal Shared Storage > DCIM..

But as I say, just sync to Google Photos, way easier

Hi, there is a link above, but you need to install the google photo app, then in the settings on that is a backup option, as I say follow the link I posted earlier.

Cloud spending continues to surge globally, but most organisations haven’t made the changes necessary to maximise the value and cost-efficiency benefits of their cloud investments. Download the whitepaper From Overspend to Advantage now.

Still something not right...I have google photos and all the sync settings are as you say....but when I open up my email and attach a photo the Google photos do not show.
Going to the directory ..dcim...photos...only shows some old photos and not many of them.
My google photos are all backed up.
Not sure what to do ?

If you open a photo in Google photos, click on it and share, there should be more ways to share than you can imagine.

I know that...but I want to reply in Google email and attach a photo that way.
For some bizarre reason my new Xiaomi points to the phone directory and NOT google photos the way my other Android devices have.
That is the solution I am looking for .. thanks

Maybe clear app defaults?

Just read this on a google forum

To insert or attach images from Google Photos in the Gmail web app, click the "Insert photo" icon (landscape image), rather than the attachment icon (paperclip).

However the "landscape" is not showing on my Gmail ?

If you go into the details of the photo in the default Xiaomi gallery app, it shows you the path.
