“Amazon Photos” backs everything up to your “Amazon Drive” so it can get confusing. Not only that, but there are two different web interfaces for viewing your photos. One is the “ Amazon Photos” web interface, which is basically useless if all you are interested in is backups.
I won’t be discussing its use in this article. The other one is the “ Amazon Drive” web interface, which lets you see all of your images in an organized folder structure. To add to the confusion, as of this writing (June, 2020) when you install the software on your computer, the icon on your desktop is called “Amazon Backup.” Literally nowhere else is the software ever referred to as “Amazon Backup.” That’s not confusing at all, Amazon. #Amazon drive desktop app change folder software
So how does it all work? Read on… Using Amazon Photos for Backups Despite those hangups, I’m still happy with the software’s capability. The best way to use Amazon Photos for backups is to install the desktop app and have a well organized structure on your hard drive before you start backing everything up. If you aren’t the most organized person, you can still reorganize everything using the Amazon Drive web interface once all your files are backed up (more on that in a bit). You can also use the web based Amazon Drive interface for uploading, and there’s an app for your phone you can install that allows you to backup your cell phone photos (similar to Google Photos).
