Can you partner share in Google Photos with more than one person?
Sadly, you cannot share the Google Photos library with more than one person at a time. You will have to remove your current partner to add a new one. However, an alternative exists. You can create shared albums and add multiple people to that.
Can I make a Google photo album public?
Google Photos has added a significant feature upgrade. Since the update, you can now share an album directly with specific people without having to create a public sharing link first. This simplifies album sharing while at the same time giving you greater control over who can view your images.
You can share directly to anyone with a Google Account if they’re in your contacts or by search using their email address or phone number. For everyone else, you can create a link to share. When you share a link to your album, anyone with the link can view and add to the album or photos.
