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?

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
