Picasa users will be forced to migrate because Google has taken the decision to close. This desire seems understandable because the Mountain View company has given birth to another service.
It’s official, Picasa closes
He wishes not scatter and compete with its own services, it is not very productive. Therefore, the arrival of Photos sealed the fate of the Picasa service which is widely used by Internet users who enjoy online albums. Today it is practically outdated print snapshots to keep in physical albums. Now many people are moving towards digital methods that take up less space and are easier to handle.
Google wants to concentrate on Photos
The Mountain View company therefore wish to focus on Google Photos is why he announced the end of Picasa. Two solutions are likely to go for the users. They will have the ability to migrate to another service they have chosen beforehand. The task could be complicated if the pictures are many. Google therefore has a much simpler solution is to switch automatically to Google Photos. In view of the information provided on the web, the transfer should be done automatically. No manipulation is required.
Transfer to Google Photos cause loss of comments
This is his blog that Google has justified its decision by stating that the company wanted to focus on a “single service that offers more features and functions” on both a PC and a Smartphone. With the existence of two services, Google is forced to divide his efforts and this could damage the quality of each. With this method, all attention will be focused on Google Photos. The transfer should take place without a hitch, because everything was made to the configuration is retained. Therefore, you should see your albums organized as you had hoped and legends should also be at the rendezvous. Some might instead be unhappy because the tags and even the comments would not be able to survive the transfer.
