Hello

I managed to retrieve all my photos from Google Photos thanks to Google Takeout.

I would like to transfer them to my Pixel, which has unlimited Google Photos storage. However, I find myself with .JPEG and .JSON files. Where should I place these files on my phone (which location), and should I include the .JSON files as well?

Thank you so much for your response.????

    Hello,

    The json files contain metadata related to each photo (time taken, description, etc.), it's up to you to decide if you want to keep them.

    I don’t understand the question, Google Photos, by definition, is online.

    If you want those photos to be stored on your phone, connect it to your PC via USB and copy them wherever you want: Download, DCIM Camera...
