Something very interesting happen today I was flying I noticed that my photos were being uploaded to Google photos. I do have my tablet set to do backups. But what I do not understand is as I was taking the picture with the mavic within a couple of minutes I was getting another fication on my tablet that a picture was uploaded. I think that's great I just don't know how I did it

Hi there, I appreciate your time bringing this query to us. May I know if your mobile data is enabled? I believed your photos are being synced automatically to Google Photos because you're connected to an internet connection.

There's a setting in the Go4 App to automatically download the photos to your device, I believe its 'ON' as default. Im pretty sure Google Photos is backing up the folder where those pictures are being downloaded to.

They have to be getting saved to your tablet. Google Photos does not communicate directly with the drone lol

To me is a game changer to be able to upload to a cloud. Would you know where in the DJI 4 app the setting 4 downloading the photos automatically is. I have to look for it and I cannot find it in the app
