All the people who love clicking a lot of pictures on their phones should consider using the Google Photos backup.

How can photos get a backup in Google Photos?
Using an iPad or iPhone to back up photos in Google Photos
You need to install the desktop app on your Mac, or you can install the Google Photos app on your iPhone directly.
It is simpler with iOS, as Google automatically backup photos. You will not have to answer any questions. Whereas, on a Mac, you have to push it in the correct direction. How can that be done? Just select a particular folder where all the photos are stored.
Also, you can turn off the automatic syncing, and for that, you need to open the app and opt for menu, then go into Settings and then click on Back up and sync, which can be turned on or off as per your convenience just with a tap.
Another thing that you should remember is that if you are using the iCloud Photo Library, then at times, your photos might not be visible on your device even if they are stored in the cloud.
This can be an issue because Google Photos might not be able to see and save your content. So, you need to make sure every file is being saved on your computer or smartphone – this can be troublesome, but it is a safer option.
