Please separate screenshots folder from pictures folder

[Leonarthius]

Unfortunately, because of where the screenshot folder is located on the phone, Google photos backs up screenshots with no way to prevent this. This is no an issue on other phones or custom operating systems based out of AOSP. 

The screenshot folder needs to be outside the DCIM folder. Could you please make that change?

Doesn't back up with onedrive for me

OneDrive has that option that lists all folders that hold images, Google doesn't

Ok ty I didn't know, hopefully they will fix for you. 🙂

I list the folders I want backed up

[XLO]

You decide what Google Photos archives.

DCIM is default, can't remove that folder or anything inside it from Google, I don't need to backup screen shots so having an option to move it else where, that would be nice
