Photo stuck on Preparing Photos 0 I am trying to upload a photo to an album that I'm a member of, but it seems like forever no matter if I use Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome The first thing that you can do to find out what could be causing Google Photos to get stuck is to check the backup status. I would consider to check what is wrong on your end first

With slow connection, uploading MBs of pictures can be really a hassle. It could be your phone is slow, or it could be your upload link (or your internet) is terribly slow. I've also seen the app be stuck on 'getting your photos' Before blaming Google, slow upload can be caused by many issues. The Photos app is forever stuck - when I select a device folder (it only has 20 photos) its stuck on 'getting photos ready for backup'. Google Photos won't upload and is stuck forever. Using a private tab does not fix, nor does signing out and in again, nor does trying smaller batches (in this case the smaller batch number of photos is added to the total batch and it. Turning off notifications and restarting my phone temporarily rids of the notification of course, however whenever I reload my Google photos app or connect with wifi it reappears shortly In the time Google Photos has been preparing photos stuck on 4 of 25, have been able to upload the full 25 DSLR photos to my Costco album in full resolution.


Fix 2: Check the Network Statu I tried to stop the upload by turning off back up and sync, yet that does not work either and still leaves me stuck in the uploading process.

I would recommend uploading one image at a time now to resolve any backup log. Just click on the cancel button adjacent to the uploading image, wait for a while, and re-upload your data. The simplest way to fix the Google Photos backup being stuck issue is by canceling the uploads.
