All my iPhone pictures are automatically copied to my Google Photos app on my iPhone. Does anyone know how I can see those iPhone pictures on the desktop version of Google Photos? Thanks

I think you would need to have auto-synch turned on in the Google app. Then your photos will be uploaded to Google Photos automaticaly.

I'm not sure if this is the exact solution you're looking for, as you mention Google Photos on both the iPhone and the PC (or Mac), but it looks like in 2019 Google separated Google Photos from Google Drive. That broke the automatic syncing between the two services.

Here's a CNET article that has some options:

My iphone puts my photos on my Google Photos app on my phone as well on my laptop under the Google search engine. I also have a Gmail account so they are right there under a separate icon. I don't save mine to the iCloud because that costs money if you have too many. Google Photos has always been Free to me. Mine are on the Apple Photos also but just not saved on the Cloud.

Hmmm. I have both a gmail account and an iCloud account but I haven't been able to find my iPhone photos on either of those. Oh well, I can always upload them the old school way with a cable. Was just hoping for a wireless way, but it's not essential. Thanks.

For iCloud you need to go into your iphone settings and scroll down to Photos app and then toggle the switch next to iCloud Photos.

After I wake up, I can check on the Google photos.

When I am in my Google account, upper right corner of browser are nine dots in a grid. That's an icon for "Google Apps". Click that, and Google Photos is one of the choices. Click that and all my photos are displayed.

You'll find your Google Photos at photos.google.com

Check your sync settings, too.
