Find Your Smartphone Photos Easily with Google Photos (for iOS and Android)

Do you ever find it difficult to find a photo on your phone?  Google Photos (available for Android or iOS) is an app that organizes your smartphone photos and videos, tagging them automatically using image recognition, which makes it easier to find a photo.  If you have photos on Google Photos (aka Picasa Web Albums), it can include those as well (this option can be turned off).  Google Photos can also sync your smartphone photos and videos to the cloud for free, with some compression (uncompressed backups are available for a subscription).
