To give you the best experience from HTC and
Google® apps yet still provide optimal storage out of the box, HTC is starting to minimize preloading duplicate apps. One example is HTC
Gallery. Instead of preloading this app, HTC has extracted its unique features to make them accessible from
Google Photos.
In HTC One A9s, you can use HTC's special photo and video editing tools right from Google Photos.
With Google Photos, manage your photos and videos, back them up to your cloud storage, and enjoy all of its cool features. For details, see What you can do on Google Photos.
