INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Provided you have Chrome installed on your device, the PWA will run like any native app, without the need to open the browser.To add the new
Google Photos PWA to your desktop, visit the Google Photos site in Chrome, click the menu button on the top right, go to 'More tools' and
select 'Install Google Photos'
If you can't see that option, you'll need to visit chrome://flags, search for 'Enable app banners', choose 'Enable' from the drop-down menu
and then restart your browser.To add the PWA to your phone's homescreen, launch Chrome, go to the Chrome website, tap the browser's menu
button and select 'Add to home screen'
Bear in mind that he PWA doesn't replace the regular Google Photos mobile app.Not a direct replacementThe Google Photos PWA works just like
the website, letting you upload, edit and share photos, organize them into albums, add tags, and create collages and animations
You won't receive push notifications though, and it's not accessible offline.Google recently terminated both its Google Drive desktop app
and the Google Photos Desktop Uploader, urging users to switch to Backup Sync instead
Although uploading snaps with the new PWA on your desktop is easy enough, it doesn't automate the process like Backup Sync, so keen
photographers will want to keep both apps installed.Via Engadget
