2. Tap the options button in the upper right hand corner
3. Tap the Album option

5. Tap create (if these photos are not already uploaded to the cloud they will be uploaded automatically)
6. Give the album a name and tap the check mark in the upper left corner

Sharing your album

Once you create the album, you can easily share those images with friends or on social media

1. Launch Google Photos
2. Tap the albums option in the bottom right corner
