Google Photos is the home for all of your photos and videos, searchable and organised by the people, places and things that matter.
- Shotwell is much more robust, developed, and feature rich than Google Photos, comparing them is like comparing a horse and buggy to a modern race SUV. Yes technically they are both vehicles and transportation, but they are otherwise so completely different that any comparison is effectively meaningless. Guest • Apr 2018 • 2 agrees and 2 disagrees
- It is not a photo management application, it is an online photo storage service akin to flickr. Guest • Feb 2018 • 2 agrees and 1 disagrees
- Organization tools are very lackluster, comparatively. Google Photos is also a website, while Shotwell is a program. Buster_Blue • Jan 2017 • 6 agrees and 0 disagrees

Fastest photo organizer around. A bit more editing options would be welcomed.
