# Will Google Photos be available in Storage Studio again?

We can't promise that. Google Photos isn't available right now because Google changed what third-party apps may access in 2025, and whether that changes is up to Google. If it ever does, the [release notes](https://storagestudio.us/release-notes) will say so.

In the meantime, Google Takeout is the dependable way to get a full copy of your library — see [using Takeout](https://storagestudio.us/faq/cloud-accounts/how-do-i-get-my-photos-out-of-google-photos).
