I printed a photo of Google Photos with Seven-Eleven

　The deadline for using Google Photos for free is approaching.By the time this article is released, the automatic upload of photos taken with a smartphone will be stopped and only carefully selected photos and videos will be uploaded.

　I have a paid plan for "Dropbox" that can save up to 2TB, and because I am an Amazon prime member, I can use "Amazon Photo".So, since June, I thought about changing the storage destination of photos taken with a smartphone to them.However, Google Photos are outstanding in use.Just say "Hey Google, show a photo of 〇〇", you can find the photo you want, and display the highlights of the recently taken photos on the smart display (Google Nest Hub).The function that proposes photos correction is also useful.It is inevitable that good services cost money.If it exceeds 15GB that can be used for free, we will move to a paid plan and keep using it.

　A new feature has been added to such Google Photo from May 25.You can print photos stored in Google Photos with a multi-copy machine in Seven-Eleven.Only L -size is 40 yen per sheet, up to 10 pieces at a time.It is simple and convenient.You can choose a photo with the familiar app and receive the print immediately.That's why I used it immediately.

When I opened the "Library" of the "Google Photo" app, it was displayed as "Photo print".From that screen, you can proceed to the screen where you select a photo, or select a photo and select "Print order" from a shared menu.Up to 10 can be ordered at one time, so it would be convenient to organize it by registering in "Favorites" in advance.

　After choosing a photo, it is also possible to edit the photos and adjust the brightness.I thought this was quite convenient.However, some editing functions could not be used unless they joined "Google One".Google ONE members seem to be able to use a higher -grade editing function, such as changing portrait lighting and adjusting the background blur.It may be better to enter Google One without waiting for the free 15GB to be used for free.I thought that kind of thing.Google, I'm pretty good at business.

　When the order is completed, the print reservation number and the PIN will be displayed.Even if you do not save the screen, it will reach Gmail.

　After that, go to the nearest Seven-Eleven, select "Net Print" with a multi-copy machine, and enter the print reservation number and PIN.Because it is 40 yen per sheet, if you pay 400 yen for 10 pieces, the print will start.The print price can be paid in cash or nanaco.I didn't measure it exactly, but the print was completed in just a few minutes.It is the same feeling as a certificate photo machine.

　The print image quality is less colored than viewed on the smartphone (Oppo Find X2 Pro) display.I wasn't worried about it, but if you are worried about the color and brightness, you may want to print only one and determine how much correction should be performed.

　Net print is not a new service, but it is convenient to be able to order from the apps you usually use.I felt that there was one more reason why I couldn't stop Google Photos.
