Sunsetting the Google+ Photos Chrome app.

It seems that in light of the recent Google Photos launch, the Google+ Photos app for Chrome will be shut down on July 21, 2015. The following information is from the help center announcement.


What's changing

The Google+ Photos app won’t work anymore. Any photos that you've uploaded with the app are safe and won't be deleted. You can see the photos you previously uploaded at photos.google.com.

You won't be able to view photos or upload new ones with the app after July 21, 2015. View and upload photos using photos.google.com instead.

You can upload new photos or see the photos you previously uploaded at photos.google.com. You won’t be able to view your photos offline at this time.

If you're on a Chromebook, you can also upload your photos to Google Drive with Cloud Backup.


What isn't changing

Google+ Photos isn't going away. We're launching Google Photos to give you an even better way to manage your photos online.
